Über diesen Titel
A thrilling and moving lyrical descriptive poem in the style of legendary Australian bush poets Andrew 'Banjo' Paterson and Henry Lawson. Australian bush ballads are renowned for their easy flowing style and comfortable rhythmic pace and this poem is a beautifully crafted example of that art.
A desperate Australian farming family caught in a drought and under threat of mortgage foreclosure in a few days, form a plan to enter their horse Bonny Blue in a horse race (the Carling Cup) with 16-year-old son Jack to ride her. She has raced before but was injured (long since healed) and now she works on the farm. Jack and Bonny Blue use their fighting spirit and their bond to overcome inexperience, prejudice and overwhelming odds in the race for the Carling Cup.
