Synopsis
A fourteen-year-old English girl wins a horse in a raffle, trains it, and rides it in the Grand National steeplechase.

In mid-twentieth-century England, fourteen-year-old Velvet Brown, determined to turn the unruly horse she wins in a raffle into a champion, learns that she needs more than hard work and dedication to achieve her goal of riding her horse in the Grand National steeplechase.

When 14-year-old Velvet Brown wins an untamed piebald horse named Pie in a lottery, she is sure he has the makings of a champion. The only place she can prove his worth is in the Grand National, the largest steeplechase in the world. The fact that girls aren't allowed to ride in the race doesn't stop Velvet from showing what her beloved Pie can do.
