An excellent introduction! If you have not yet experienced the Thoroughbred series, this box set contains four perennial favorites that will introduce you to Ashleigh Griffin, Samantha McLean, Ashleigh's Wonder, Fleet Goddess and several more unforgettable characters.

Unfortunately, Harper Collins has decided to end the series abruptly after #72. With such a dedicated following and online fan base with members from all over the world, this is a classic and beloved series that has inspired many people and provided horse fans with vicarious thrills and adventure. Ashleigh saved Wonder, now it's up to you to help save Thoroughbred. [...] join the effort.

These are great books and the other reviews r about other books, the first one is about a girl whos old thoroughbred breeding farm got run outta buisness becuz most of the horses got sick and most also died. Ashleigh(the girl) her parents, didn't have enough insurance to cover it, so they had to become breeding managers of this HUGE racing stable. Then, Holly, the horse ashleigh grooms, has a sick filly and everyone wants to give up on her. then the owner of the farm wants to sell her. Rather problematic, but a good book.

The second book is about wonders training, but Ashleigh babyed wonder to much, so the harsh new trainer says that wonder wont make it to be a racer. Ashleigh falls off, gets afraid of wonder, starts doubting herself, read the rest to find out.

The third book is about wonder racing, she does real good, and so she is pointed towards the kentucky derby but then snot bag brad works her out on and icy track, wonder is lame, we all are sad. This book is mainly about how many problems we can blame brad for.

The fourth and final book in this box set is about how wonder won the derby and we are all happy happy happy and of COURSE she has to run in the preakness and the belmont, then she she gets all agitated after the triple crown, and throws off her jockey, jockey cant ride her in the breeders cup, ashleigh has to ride.

Almost to many problems in the series, but they r good.

I ordered from 3 sellers in this order. These books came 2 weeks after the other sellers. SLOW!

This book was great! I absolutely adored it

I liked the book. I love Thoroughbreds. Maura Langston is the main charecter. She falls for a boy named Kevin who falls for her. When he wants to do a little more than she's prepared for hearts are broken. However the end is good and the book leaves you wanting more.

I mean puhleeese! This book was oka
