HE MAY be only 154cm in height and intellectually disabled, but equestrian rider Muhammad Amin Ali is on his way to the Special Olympics World Games in Los Angeles for the ride of his life.

When he arrives at the destination with the rest of the Malaysian contingent, he will be off to the Los Angeles Equestrian Center to choose his horse for his dressage event.
