Showjumpers
““She’s like a hippo,” Georgie moaned as she brought Belle inside and tied the mud-caked mare up at the hitching posts next to Alice’s horse, William, and Cameron’s big piebald, Paddy. “It’s going to take forever to get her cleaned up.”
Now that the rainy weather was setting in and the fields were muddy, Georgie had been expecting to keep Belle boxed in the stables. But there were too many horses at Blainford for everyone to be assigned loose boxes, and so it had been decided that the school hor...ses would continue to graze outdoors.
The divide between the pupils who were rich enough to afford to keep their own horses at Blainford and those who weren’t had never been more brutal. Georgie would have to deal with a muddy horse for months until the weather improved.
Underneath the winter rug, she was surprised to see how furry Belle had become in less than a week. Autumn days were shorter and the decrease in sunlight had stimulated the growth of the horses’ winter coats.
Even with her thick layer of winter fuzz, you could see how finely built and beautiful Belladonna was.MoreLess
