Ashleigh is thrilled when the owner of Townsend Acres puts her once ailing filly into training as a Thoroughbred racer. But Wonder bucks and disobeys her harsh new trainer. The trainer is convinced Wonder can't be disciplined. After Ashleigh is thrown from Wonder, she thinks the trainer might be right. Is it time to give up on Wonder? Wonder's First Race

Wonder has come through training with flying colors. Now Ashleigh and the trainer are getting Wonder ready for the biggest race of her career: the Kentucky Derby. Wonder's Victory

Wonder is training for her next big race when her regular jockey is injured. Now Ashleigh is Townsend Acres only hope. Can she ride her favorite filly to the Winner's Circle?
