This rollicking yet suspenseful story of an unusually talented colt and the boys who embrace his uniqueness will have readers riveted from beginning to end. When the acrobatic palomino colt, bred to play polo, shows interest and aptitude for playing soccer goalkeeper, he is launched on a nationwide tour to promote the sport. His owner, 12-year-old Bobby Simpson, and his best friend, Ramon Aguilar accompany the colt in a luxury motor home with horse-quarters–the Fergus Special. The colt enjoys immediate fame, but not without peril.  Before long Rumble Smith, a rodeo stock-dealer, who doesn’t mind operating on the wrong side of the law, plots to abduct the world-renowned colt. He ropes his two bumbling ranch hands, Billy Joe Culpepper and Reiterate Johnson into helping him. Suspense, adventure, and lessons in loyalty and teamwork fill the pages of this book.  With a multi-cultural flavor and many interesting facts about famous U.S. ball parks and buildings, this is a book for the young and young at heart.
