Will Rogue be the one horse for whom Ann and Jim have to admit defeat?

Ann and Jim Henderson have bred two very different horses. Sweet-tempered Dido can turn on a sixpence and brake alarmingly fast: all very useful for a polo pony. But Rogue is different. He has been difficult since birth, and the older he grows, the more menacing he becomes. His very survival depends on whether Ann and Jim can find the key to him.

Darius the Eventer

Ann has a talented horse with a problem. And someone from her past hellbent on revenge.

A glimpse into the horse world of the 1960s. Ann and Jim Henderson breed horses, and one of their horses has a problem: he can't concentrate. Darius comes to a complete halt until he's satisfied he knows what's going on: not ideal when you're trying to get a horse ready for the Badminton three day event.

But even Darius pales into the horizon when Ann's beloved first horse, Pilot, is desperately ill.

Horses aren't the only problem for the Hendersons. Pat O Hara's father blames Ann for his imprisonment, and when he escapes, he's hellbent on revenge.

Can Ann defeat tragedy, Darius and O'Hara and enter Badminton?

Night Storm the Flat-Racer

Sat, 18 Mar 2023 15:35:48 +0200

Ann and Jim have bred a wonderful black colt who looks as if he could be a Classic winner. But nothing is straightforward: Night Storm has a furious temper and is difficult to ride. There are questions about whether he'll ever get as far as a racecourse, let alone race. And once he does race, there are people around who want to stop Night Storm in his tracks.

Part of the 1960s Leysham Stud series, where a couple fight to establish a prize-winning stud.
