Golden Horse: The Story of Astra (A Novel)

If any horse deserved to succeed, it was Astra. Her breeding as a jumper was flawless, her mother was a successful show jumper, her father a successful steeplechaser. And Astra had inherited their abilities in bucket loads. But when Astra was taken to her first competitions she refused to jump, even though she jumped with enthusiasm at home. For Clare, her owner and rider, it was a bitter disappointment and a setback she hadn't bargained on. All the years of training seemingly a waste of time. In that first summer of shows Clare, kept faith in Astra, taking her to competition after competition, only to be let-down and humiliated by Astra's bad tempered behaviour. Astra, it seemed was a failure, before she had even got started . . . good for nothing. But then, Astra started to jump in public, her supposed 'stage fright' overcome. However, just as things began to look up, Astra broke down badly, and things didn't look good for her future as a jumper. Would she be destined to end her ill-fated life at such a tender age? Or would Clare's love, and faith in her horse be enough to save her? Read this heart warming story about a girl with gut's and determination, and a big loveable floppy eared horse now.   US$2.99 E-book available in multiple formats epub, mobi, pdf, from multiple book stores, Amazon, Kobo, Barnes and Noble, click the picture.
