When young Julie Jefferson started to race her horse Bonnie under the colors of Fieldstone Farm, the future looked bright. There was the excitement of turning an untried filly into a racing horse, the trainers and jockeys who helped teach Julie the tricks of the trade, and the growing certainty that Bonnie was the stuff of which great champions were made. But suddenly everything changed. Someone was out to steal Bonnie, or else make sure the gallant filly would never win another race -- and dangerous illness darkened the horse's chances still further. It seemed that heartbreak waited at the finish line for Julie Jefferson and her dream -- until the courageous girl made a daring gamble in a story whose thrilling climax will leave readers gasping with surprise and delight.
