| AND THEY'RE OFF! | |
 | | Photo: Adam Coglianese |
Next weekend, many of us will be at a Field Trial or a Hunt Test. But some will be attending -- or at least watching -- the Kentucky Derby.
In addition to having several competitive dogs, one of those field trialers, Chip McEwen, also has a racing stable. After meeting a wounded veteran on a plane flight, he decided to donate 10% of his horses' winnings to Wounded Warrior Project, which in turn channels funds to organizations like Retrieving Freedom.
So when you're watching the race next weekend, keep an eye on Uncle Sigh, one of Chip's horses. And place a bet!
