AWARD-WINNING MUSICIANS STING AND BRYAN ADAMS RECORD ORIGINAL SONGS FOR ALCON ENTERTAINMENT'S UPCOMING FILM ``RACING STRIPES''

Renowned recording artists Sting and Bryan Adams have each contributed an original song to Alcon Entertainment's live action/CGI animation family motion picture, "Racing Stripes," in theatres Friday, January 14th. Sting's song, entitled "Taking the Inside Rail," and Adams', entitled "It Ain't Over Yet," will be featured on the film's soundtrack, released today by Varese Sarabande Records.

Both musicians have enjoyed distinguished careers as film composers. Sting is a three-time Academy Award nominee for Best Music, Original Song for his contributions to "The Emperor's New Groove," "Kate & Leopold" and "Cold Mountain," and a three-time Grammy nominee for Best Song Written for a Motion Picture or Television for his work on "The Emperor's New Groove," "Lethal Weapon 3" and "Cold Mountain." Adams is also a three-time Oscar nominee, in recognition of his work on "Robin Hood: Prince of Thieves" (for which he also won a Grammy), "Don Juan DeMarco" and "The Mirror Has Two Faces."

"Racing Stripes" is the tale of a baby zebra named Stripes (voiced by Frankie Muniz), who is raised by horse trainer Nolan Walsh (Bruce Greenwood) and his young daughter Channing (Hayden Panettiere) on their Kentucky farm. Stripes becomes part of an eclectic barnyard family, led by grumpy Shetland pony Tucker (voiced by Dustin Hoffman) and Franny (voiced by Whoopi Goldberg), a sharp-tongued but loving nanny goat. Stripes and Channing both dream of racing in the prestigious Kentucky Open -- Stripes knows that if he can just get onto the track, he will leave all the other horses in the dust. What he doesn't know is...he's not exactly a horse. Stripes makes some friends down at the track as well, most notably the manic horsefly duo Buzz (voiced by Steve Harvey) and Scuzz (voiced by David Spade), whose love of song and dance is eclipsed only by their love of hot dogs and horse poop.

As Stripes thrusts himself into a world of elite athletes, intense competition and enormous stakes, he must prove he's fast enough and tough enough to run with the big horses if he wants to land in the winner's circle at the Kentucky Open. Some champions are born, not bred!

The film's voice cast also features Mandy Moore, Michael Clarke Duncan, Jeff Foxworthy, Joshua Jackson, Joe Pantoliano, Michael Rosenbaum, Snoop Dogg and Fred Dalton Thompson.

"Racing Stripes" will be distributed domestically by Warner Bros. Pictures, a Warner Bros. Entertainment Company. The film will be released January 14th, 2005.

The film has been rated "PG" by the Motion Picture Association of America for "mild crude humor and some language."
