1-3Horse Diaries series.
Illustrated by
Ruth Sanderson.
A Thoroughbred colt in Depression-era California, Chance has the spirit to be a winning racehorse but he won't obey his trainers. With the right trainer and jockey he becomes a champion--until an injury throws him out of contention. Chance's compelling narrative voice and his special connection with his jockey's daughter make this a particularly sympathetic series entry.
