The story of a horse is a  legend of a pretty horse named Thunderhoof and this is how it goes.  The story takes place in the desert land and it goes like this. 

There was a great white stallion that ran free in the West.  His name was Thunderhoof.  There was a ranch and there were many cowboys there.  They wanted this stallion because all the other horses followed him.  They tried and tried to rope him and he just shook the rope loose and ran away.  Then one day he was weak from hunger and had drank no water for days and the cowboy roped him and he could not shake it off.  The cowboys took him to the ranch where they worked.  They were very proud of the great white stallion.  All the other horses followed him.  The great white stallion named Thunderhoof said to himself, "I will stay here where they are good to me."

And he did.
