Riding Star
“It wasn’t until they were unloading the truck that the reality of what they had done finally struck them.
As Georgie watched Riley leading the Thoroughbreds down the ramp she felt a wave of fear rising up inside her. These weren’t pony-club ponies – they were bona fide racehorses. They stood there twitching and trembling with nerves, their eyes out on stalks as they surveyed their new environment, and all Georgie could think was that this might be the biggest mistake of her life.
She didn’t kno...w a thing about training Thoroughbreds and transforming them into polo ponies. Daisy and Emily, both with two new horses apiece, didn’t have a clue either! Between them, the girls had seven skinny, young creatures straight off the track, all gangly legs and wild eyes.
“They don’t look like polo ponies, do they?” Georgie said.
“No,” Daisy agreed. “They don’t.”
“OK, so they need an extreme makeover,” Alice said, “but that’s why they were so cheap.”
Georgie wasn’t so convinced.MoreLess
