Studio Synopsis: In the middle of a raging thunderstorm, a traveling circus accidentally leaves behind some very precious cargoÑa baby zebra (voiced by Frankie Muniz). The gangly little foal is rescued by horse farmer Nolan Walsh (Bruce Greenwood), who takes him home to his young daughter Channing (Hayden Panettiere). Once a champion thoroughbred trainer, Walsh has given up horse training for a quiet life with Channing on their modest Kentucky farm. The Walsh farm borders the Turfway Racetrack, where highly skilled thoroughbreds compete for horse racing's top honor, the ultra-prestigious Kentucky Crown. From the first moment Stripes lays eyes on the track, he's hooked Ð he knows that if he could just get the chance, he could leave all those other horses in the dust. What he doesn't know is É he's not exactly a horse. But with characteristic zeal, he devotes himself to training for the big time, with a little help from a cranky Shetland Pony named Tucker (voiced by Dustin Hoffman), who has coached a host of champion racehorses in the past.
