Summary: Ashleigh: The Forbidden Stallion
Review: "Before Thoroughbred, Ashleigh Griffen lived at Edgardale, her family's farm in Kentucky. Nothing could be more perfect than life on the farm with her family, her favorite horses, and her best friend, Mona. Ashleigh loves helping with the horses-and dreaming of become a jockey some day..."

Ashleigh Griffen is thrilled when she hears that she and her family are going to see the wealthy Danworths...and also one of Ashleigh's favorite stallions, Alladin! But, as she watches Aladdin racing and working out, she sees that he has a 'moose-like' way of racing which causes him to lose nearly all races. Ashleigh just knows that she can find out why Aladdin is like that if she can ride him, but she can't because she had terrible math grades and her parents forbid her to ride any ANY horses until she get her grades up.

But if she don't help Aladdin, Peter Danworth would no longer love or even care for Aladdin anymore. Ashleigh gets news that if Aladdin loses his next race, the Danworths will retire him to stud at Edgardale...but as she accidentally discovers the secret of how to run him to win, will she tell Peter about it or keep it to herself so that Aladdin would come to Edgardale?

I thought that this book wasn't the BEST in the Ashleigh series I've read so far. It was still fun and interesting to read though, and I recommend it to kids and maybe teenagers too. Though I kind of think teenagers would find it a bit easy to read.

Summary: Great Book!
Review: I love the Thoroughbred series, but this is one of the best yet. It is so cool how Ashleigh discovers the problem with Alladin after she sneeks a ride on him. (She's not allowed to ride) I won't give the rest away. FANTASTIC BOOK! HORSE LOVERS- READ THIS BOOK!!!

Summary: Is Aladdin ruined?
Review: In this book Ashleigh Griffen and her family spend a week at the Danworths' farm in Florida. Aladdin's Treasure, a colt the Griffens sold to the Danworths isn't running well and Ashleigh is devastated. She figures out his secret, but will she tell Peter who owns Aladdin? This book was great, even though Ashleigh acted a little bratty.
