The crowd size grows. wagers rise as a clever colt is hailed by some as capable of beating Firebrand, while the owner touts the colt’s cleverness and readiness. The match proceeds with betting, the colt initially gaining, then Firebrand maintain a strong lead, prompting debates about fairness and tricks as the crowd’s excitement peaks.
