The Exceller Fund presents a series of auctions featuring the adorable new children's
book Sing and Alex with a jockey's autograph on the cover. The book is also
signed inside by the author and the artist. Sing and Alex is the story of a small
racehorse who never wins a race. He moves from barn to barn, never making any friends. One day, a little boy named Alex comes into his life, and things start looking up for Sing. This is a wonderful story of the power of love and believing in one's
self. These will make great presents this holiday season!

Read a recent review of the book:

"Sing and Alex is one of the best children's books I have read in years! The story of a horse who just needs someone to believe in him, and the tale of the boy who loves him will touch all who read it. The illustrations are darling, and add immeasurably to the story of hope, love, and redemption. I highly recommend this book for all who love horses and for those people looking for a way to make dreams come true."

- Hallie McEvoy, author of Genuine Risk, Showing for Beginners, and Horse Show Judging for Beginners.

The author Rob Saur, took eleven of these books to Saratoga in August and had
each one autographed by a different jockey. The auctions features the autograph
of a different jockey on the cover and the author has signed the book on the inside.
Mr. Saur has donated the books to help The Exceller Fund raise funds to help Thoroughbreds whose racing or breeding days are over. The auctions will feature books signed by:

-Edgar Prado
-Julien Leparoux
-Rafael Bejarano
-Calvin Borel
-Javier Castellano
-Kent Desormeaux
-Rafel Bejarano
-Ramon Dominquez
-Garrett Gomez
-Carnelio Velasquez
-Steve Cauthen
-John Velazquez


The winning bids will help The Exceller Fund provide a "Future Beyond the
Finish Line" sm for less fortunate Thoroughbreds whose racing and/or breeding
careers are over. Many of these Thoroughbreds are capable of a second career in
one of the many equine riding disciplines or simply as a pleasure riding horse.

Your winning bid will help TWO Thoroughbred rescue and adoption organizations.
The Exceller Fund is splitting the net proceeds of this auction with CANTER Ohio
who is also in desperate need of funding in order to keep helping Thoroughbreds
transition into new lives when their racing careers are over.

I have a copy of the "Sing and Alex" book, and it is a cute story for young children. Anyone that has young children that they read to and who are starting to read themselves would enjoy a copy of this book.
