Augustus (Gus) was once a world class showjumper, but now grumpy, old and lame he ignores Flo, a young girl trying to befriend him. The only creature he'll talk to is his lifelong friend, the magpie. The magpie reminds him of his youth and his long-forgotten burning ambition to fly. Each time he jumped he hoped he would fly, but he never did. Gradually Flo wins him over, though the ending is a little bit sad, though poignant.
