Book 8
Issie's competing in the Young Rider Express Eventing Challenge in Australia! She's got the perfect horse, Victory, so this should be her chance to shine - even if her new instructor is hard to impress.
But Issie's faced with a nightmare room-mate and a secret in the stables that's proving hard to keep...
The bay mare tried to baulk, then changed her mind as Shane urged her harder and jumped. It was a messy take-off. She lurched forward and her front legs made it over the fence, but her hindquarters didn't. Dragging her legs over the mare twisted and tumbled. There were shrieks of horror as Bendigo Queen went down on her back in the water - with Shane Campbell trapped underneath her.
