I am supposed to be riding a horse tomorrow in the sixth race named Fleet Lady, but she has disappeared. I will pay you two hundred dollars to find her. Someone took her in a van, and I followed them down here to the waterfront. Do you think you can you find Fleet Lady?" Pat said "I don't know, who owns her?"
