Pity Marco couldn't see Sakura at all right now (he really wasn't a fan of blinkers, he'd decided), because he'd have loved to make fun of her getup. <Hey, don't pull!> he said. Okay, reins were another thing Marco didn't like.

<Wait, you guys don't have horse races?> he said, taking a few unsure steps - although not actually in the direction of the gates. <And oh man, I have to race? That's so not fair! I can't even bet!>
