Champions RUN in the Family

I thought this book was great! Though my favorite is definatly WONDER'S FIRST RACE, Ashleigh's Wonder turns intoa racing champion,my dream from the 1st TB book. I LOVE racing,I'm gonna be a jockey when I turn 16,like my Aunt. This is THE best book series ever!!! It's VERY sad that Chris sells Sterling,the mare she gave up EVERYTHING for.But Star was worth it. I meanWonder was a champion. I feel bad for Ashleigh,it's not her faultWonder died. "As the roses were draped over Star's withers,he flicked his long tail,looking every inch the champion that he was. Wonder's Star, the last son there would ever be, of ChampionAshleigh's Wonder....

GREAT!

I really really liked this book, It was great. It was a really really good book I recommend it! I can't wait for the next two! Now that Christina is a jockey she is just like her mom! and she is riding wonders son so that is cool too! and also I think Parker and Christina make the all time perfect couple. GREAT BOOK YOU SHOULD READ IT!

STARriffic!

This was a great book! Like the last three, it's been in the ole' Thoroughbred tradition and theme. Christina is SOOOOO awesome now! I love how she's so bonded to Star. I'm glad she's gone to racing. I'm glad she worked out something with Sterling and Samantha. It's a good deal for all of them. Parker and Chris make such a good couple. I'm happy to announce my all time favorite person in the series (besides Wonder) Ashleigh is back to normal. She loves Star now, which is WONDERful. I couldn't beleive how she neglected him before. Didn't she think of how Wonder would want her to treat Star? I would liked to have seen Cindy be one of the jockeys to help Christina get her licence. They can include her a little bit. Even though Cindy wasn't one of my all time favorites, I think she should own a neighboring farm and stand Glory as her stud. I would also like to see Pride Champion at least mentioned as a stallions at Whitebrook. Why couldn't Fleet Goddess be mentioned as Sassy Jazz's dam? Why don't we see Sammy at Whitebrook much? Anyway, this is a very exciting book and goes Down to the Wire. An excellent book. Keep up the good work new authors. I'm craving 'Living Legend (#39)' and 'Ultimate Risk (#40)'.

Wonderful, Was she ever close!

What a decent book! This book is about Ashleigh's daughter Christina. And Wonder's son Star. This book has been long awaited by me ever since Mrs. Bentley quit writing thoroughbred. I love thoroughbred racing which is part of the reason why I like these books so much.. I am happy that Christina turned into such a nice person. Good job guys. As an end note to those who hate the way Thoroghbred is going, why don't you just not read it anymore?

Wow, the tb books are really better, RACING IS BACK!

Now, this book was so totally awesome. I got it as soon as it came out. If you want to know why it was so good- i will put it simply- RACING IS BACK! Christina a jockey, well i didn't think that would happen, and i didn't like the thought of- but oh well, it happened, and i liked it. It was so awesome, and Ashleigh is BACK TO NORMAL! Like she used to be, funny, nice, etc. Really an awesome book. This author is one of the best the TB books have seen in a long while. If anyone wants to know more about the book, or a spoiler, then e-mail me, i would be happy to send one. Also you could join a TB list at onelist.com, and find out more.
