Chelsea:
I really liked reading this book, though I did have to find out what some of the words meant. There is some bad language and detailed descriptions of how jockeys got hurt, which made me cringe a little. Overall, I totally loved this book and I recommend it to everybody, whether you like horse racing or not.

I enjoyed the book, even though it was about racing. Since it's a true story, it had my full attention. However, there were some quotes in the book that used foul language and some graphic parts about how the jockeys fell off their horses and were seriously injured (in some cases, killed). If you have a weak stomach, you might want to pass, but overall, I loved the way the author portrayed the story. Even if you don't know anything about horse racing (like me), it's a great story about a horse's, trainer's, and jockey's triumph. My dad even read the book after I was done, and he loved it!
