Sara Kominsky

Smart Aleck Part II Sara Kominsky

Sara has spent years trying to turn her Thoroughbred, Alec, into a successful Event horse. But after several terrible accidents and a great deal of self-reflection, she begins to rethink what she's been taught about training horses. After Sara changes her methods, the pair finally begins to trust each other -- but the timing couldn't be worse. Sara's health has started to decline due to Cystic fibrosis and Alec -- diagnosed with navicular disease -- can no longer jump. They turn exclusively to dressage, despite Sara being told that the gelding lacks talent for it. But, like his rider, Alec is unwilling to give up without a fight, and it soon becomes clear that the aging ex-racehorse has finally found his niche.
