Budweiser farm: a Clydsdale is born… without a Blaze.
Every day his mother painted a blaze on him so that one day he could be a budweiser clydesdale, just like his father.
She tells him almost every night about how important it is to work hard and to do good so that he becomes a successful famous budweiser clydesdale just like his father!

And if he doesn’t… He'll be sent to the glue factory!! Where horses are capping glue with their sad little hooves, living boring lives.
Through a small miracle and a lot of training and responsibility, the little horse passes inspection and is accepted to study at one of budweiser’s training schools, Turtle ranch with some of his friends!

His mother is incredibly proud of him and sees him off as he leaves in his luxury 50 foot budweiser trailer.

Studies very hard to do well in school and act professionally-
But most importantly of all, he keeps a distance from all of the other clydesdales so that they never find out his secret. He doesn’t want to get kicked out forever to work at the glue factory!
After years and years of hard work, he finally graduates! Just in time to go help create the superbowl ad for budweiser beer!
Blaze begins his photoshoot - it is very beautiful and dramatic- playing horseshoes over the beer right by horseshoe falls.
But at the same time! The dalmatian was doing a photoshoot on the other side of the river.
Oh no, the dalmatian lost his balance on top of the barrels!
He fell into the rapids! And blaze was the only amazing budweiser clydesdale present!
Blaze knew what he must do.
Without hesitation, Blaze dives into the falls to save his beloved companion from certain death!
The two reunite and struggle through the water, fighting valiantly against the current.
Blaze climbs out of the water, knowing that his career is over. The water washed off his blaze - and now they even got it on video!
Surprising the kind horse, everyone starts cheering. Their beloved mascot is saved!
