Newark police officer Manuel Spruill, left, patrols on his police horse Saber while on duty with fellow officer Anthony Matos, right, aboard Commander, in Newark, N.J., Tuesday, June 23, 2009. Saber, once a harness racing champion named Broadway Kevin, was bought at auction by a horse rescue group that saved him from being sold as meat, and eventually made his way along with other former professional race horses to the Newark police mounted patrol. Commander, a former harness racer who won nearly $300,000 in his career as Cunning Liar, came to the Newark police department from the Standardbred Retirement Foundation. (AP Photo/Mike Derer)
