It is rare to find an authentic horse movie or show, but this is the absolute worst. It just couldn't be that hard to find someone to fact check. The lead actress is supposed to a jumper rider but her old room shows ribbons for dressage. The sad looking horses must have all been named by six year olds and hardly look like champions. In the final competition, the rider is again dressed for dressage, not jumpers and certainly not hunters. The jumps were quite small for a championship and were hunter style, not jumper style. Rascal's braids looked like someone did them with mittens on - they were all over the place. I've never heard an announcer at a jumper show say that the horse "leaped". The story was pleasant enough and it was nice to see Janine Turner, but everything else was unforgivable.

I just finished the final episode and I'm so sad the show has ended. I thoroughly enjoyed it throughout both seasons. It is funny, but not silly. It is sweet, but not sugary. The relationship that develops between the lead characters is tender and moving. In finding each other, they find themselves.
