Fifteen-year-old Leslie D'Andrea Can Have Any Horse She Wants. Her parents own stables where they train retired Thoroughbreds to become pleasure riders. But the only one Leslie wants is Battlecry, an unbridled equine on whom everyone else has given up. She knows that beneath his unstable behavior is a spirited steed who would give his all to win races again -- for her. Finally, Leslie's parents give Battlecry a chance to prove his worth. But Leslie doesn't know that by entering her horse in a race she'll risk losing him forever.
