The black horses of the Culver Academies will once again take part in the nation's inauguration.
On Sunday, they had their dress rehearsal.
Culver's Black Horse Troop and equestriennes have been invited to take part in Barack Obama's presidential inaugural parade.
The school's first inaugural invitation came back in 1913, so the latest comes as no surprise.
Culver plans to take 100 horses to next week's parade -- twice the number that took part in 2001.
Over 1,300 groups requested to participate in the inaugural parade, but only around 50 are actually invited.
