Please help Read the excerpt from The Land.

"You know," I said quietly when we were to ourselves, "maybe this race isn't important to you, but it is to me, so I figure we best get to knowing each other quick. I'm Paul Logan, out of Georgia, and you need to know I've ridden a lot of fine horses, maybe some not as fine as you, maybe some better. Now, I know we don't know each other, but I understand from your rider, Eddie Hawks, you've got a real mind of your own. You like to win if you do it in your own way. Well, that's all right with me, long as you let me ride you and help you out a little bit. See, I figure to prove my daddy and Robert wrong. I figure to ride you, even though I don't know you, and Ole Grey, I figure to win."

What does this dialogue reveal about Paul’s feelings toward Ole Grey?

A.)He has a deep fear of the horse, so he is cautious in his approach.
B.)He is worried that the horse will not listen to him during the race.
C.)He has a deep respect for the horse, so he treats him with care.
D.)He is more concerned with winning than with the horse’s well-being.
