Content

After moving to Cornwall, Ruby is very happy to be able to show off her riding skills at the Ocean Ranch. But then she gets a shock: her way of horse riding doesn’t go over well with the horse whisperers at all. In anger, she chooses a ranch for tough professional equestrians where she is initially celebrated as an up-and-coming star. However, when her favourite horse Fantasy is put up for sale after a tournament blunder, Ruby begins to have doubts about her choice. Under the cover of night, she saves Fantasy and now finally knows where she really belongs: at the Ocean Ranch. With the horse whisperers.

About the Series

Not far from a beach in Cornwall lies a beautiful horse ranch – a paradise for girls, horses, and other animals. But those who want to ride here must first learn something very important: communicating with horses. Like real horse-whisperers!
