About the author
Christine Keir was a pseudonym used by Christine Pullein-Thompson. As far as I know, she only wrote one book under this name: The Impossible Horse. This was something of a departure for Christine, as it involved romance, which is possibly why she used a different name for the book. When the book came to be republished by Dragon Books, it was badged as being by Christine Pullein-Thompson, so presumably pony book fans had not been irretrievably cast down by the addition of romance to a pony story.

Jan Craigson sees the beautiful bay Benedictine out hunting, when he rears and badly injures Sonia Stanmore.
