Setting Out on an Expedition

After discussing the racing schedules of the three racehorses with Lin Zhi, Zhang Jun turned and headed to Zheng Xing's stable.

He had one more racehorse here than at Lin Zhi's stable.

Among them, River Moon, the fiercely competitive stallion, was already five years old. Even for a late-maturing horse, this was roughly the end of its peak period.
