Ashleigh loves helping with the horses--and dreaming of becoming a jockey someday... Aladdin has to run! Ashleigh has never been more excited--her favorite horse, Aladdin's Treasure, is running in the Kentucky Derby! But just before race day Aladdin has an accident while his jockey is breezing him. Now, not only is Aladdin terrified of the jockey, but the jockey is terrified of Aladdin! Only Ashleigh is capable of putting horse and rider back together again. But with the Derby just hours away, can she bridge their trust in time?

It’s been a while since i was reading this series and I think this was a good one to start back up on. I was actually in suspense a lot of the time, nervous for the outcomes of Rhoda’s rides on Aladdin. I wanted him to get to the derby so bad. And for Rhoda to stay safe. That girl took a lot of falls lol. I wasn’t sure if I expected the ending or not. These books often have ideal endings but at the same time they keep it two so not legs. Interested to see why happens next now that they’ve gone this far.
