Free Rein: The Steeplechase Secret

Product Information

The riders of Bright Fields Stables are playing a game of Truth or Dare – or rather, Truth or Mare, since the horses are involved, too!

Once a light cotton rug had been placed on Dollar to keep her clean and dry, Hannah placed her in one of Jan’s smaller yards, taking off the head collar before closing the gate securely after her. What made it even better was that her two best friends were able to keep their ponies at her parent’s place.Since then the girls had decided it was better to keep this tradition going, just in case Geordie’s grades slipped and her parents took Rose away from her. Once this was achieved, the girls again switched positions with Geordie holding Dollar and Hannah getting the job of using a bucket of shampooed water and a sponge to go over Dollar’s body, mane and tail. When a developer starts to resurrect a steeplechase race course on the island, the girls are all intrigued, especially since there are some cute boys whose parents work there. Although she’d never washed a horse before, she had seen Bob hose over and scrape off his mare Venetian at Genesis.

These days, she lives in Brooklyn, New York, within several blocks of a few Pokémon gyms and Prospect Park, which has full herds of Eevee rambling in the meadow.It meant that all three took great pride in their horses and where they kept them – it had worked out well. Meanwhile, there’s a ghost dog that might be running around Pin’s castle – and a treasure to be found. Ticking all the requisite pony story boxes, Free Rein sees American teen Zoe, her little sister Rosie, and their English mother move from LA to an island off the coast of England (not that one) to stay with their grandfather, whose idyllic country home happens to be spitting distance from an incredibly glamorous stables named Bright Field. Suddenly, we hear a commotion behind us and look to see Bob charging in our direction, red ribbons stuck to him and two red heart shaped balloons in his mouth. The mare’s white socks and flaxen mane and tail were given a really good scrub with the sponge, making sure that shampoo got worked in thoroughly.

She sighed when the lesson seemed to come to an end, the instructor letting the group of three out of the arena where they disappeared from view. She's ready to take it easy and enjoy some downtime with her family, her best friends, and her horse, Raven. Although life is anything, but boring, she welcomes the planned reopening of Grindlerock Steeplechase track, a former island treasure. Pulling on a jacket and a pair of gumboots she stepped off the front porch, running to the back of the house.

It was half past eight already and her mother had told her that rain was forecast for the afternoon – she needed to get moving! And having a book that focuses on the meaning of Christmas – even in the middle of the year – seemed quite relevant for a December release (well, two!
