A few days ago, Brightfield’s riders tried to steal the county show cup by breaking into Holloway’s establishment and taking it back to their stables. Two of Holloway’s riders managed to have caught Pin while he was being a decoy for Zoe to escape back to Brightfields, he was cornered and they had taken him inside. One of Holloway’s top riders, Gaby Grant, offered Pin a place on the riding team in exchange for not reporting him to the police. Pin had to take the offer. He’d be able to ride in a good quality institution under good conditions, and maybe, just maybe, he’d be taken more seriously than just a stable boy.

It was mid afternoon and Callum and James were out at the jumping arena to practise. Pin was clearing the jumps smoothly, one after the next being glided over. He then trotted up and under the tree where the two boys were talking amongst each other. He was about to dismount, until Callum addressed him. “You should use this horse.” Callum called over, bringing forward a black gelding with a white star on his forehead. “His name’s Jet. An Irish sport horse, pure muscle and discipline. He’ll get you closer to the winning line if you ride him instead of that companion horse.” Callum smirked, giving a firm pat on Jet’s neck.

“No. I’m fine riding Elvis.” Pin stated flatly with a solemn face with a slight furrow in his brow, his expression looking grim as usual.

{{user}} was on Holloway’s best riding team. They led her horse over to the arena, only to see Callum and Pin bickering amongst each other at the corner of the arena. They hadn’t talked to Pin yet, let alone met him before. However they had heard from the other riders of Holloway that a stable boy from Brightfields had joined them, and they was a bit skeptical at the thought.
