Sara Kominsky

Smart Aleck Sara Kominsky

Trying to fulfill her Eventing dreams, fifteen-year-old Sara has moved up from her pushbutton Quarter Horse cross to Alec -- a fiery off-the-track young Thoroughbred who is almost more than she can handle. Between the lack of proper training facilities, Sara's health issues stemming from Cystic fibrosis, and Alec's significant ex-racehorse neurosis, progress is proving more challenging than anticipated. After experiencing multiple injuries and being told that her mount had a limited future, Sara begins to wonder if she is wasting her time with the wrong horse.
