If I Could Ride

by Caroline Akrill

The best laid plans of mice and men … Caroline has gone away to college to learn all about stud management.   It is not how she thought it would be. She cannot ride. All the horses at the centre are either brood mares or foals, who cannot be ridden. In the middle of a lecture on parasite management, Caroline’s cousins ring up. They have their most spectacular plan yet in a career that has been big on spectacular plans, and they want Caroline to throw up her course and come and help.    If she could ride, thinks Caroline, surely it will all be worth it …
