I enjoyed the book. Over my equestrian career i have owned 2 Off theTrack Thoroughbreds and other part -Thoroughbreds . I love the breed. I was bothered by some of the coincidences in the story and by the death of a character tacked on near the end which seemed superfluous. While racism is certainly an important and timely topic, this death didn’t add anything to this particular story.

A cute story. Perhaps accurate but some escapades not ringing true for me: 2 women with no experience successfully cracking a mine; a woman riding a stallion who has been confined for days….at night and through rough territory. I was not wowed, indeed disappointed. It seemed dumbed down.
