Billy Peterson rode racehorses for nine years as a professional jockey, becoming the number one quarter horse jockey in the United States of America. After retiring, he became a financial advisor and is a five-time member of Raymond James Chairman’s Council. He was also named to Barron’s list of top advisors in the United States and has been selected to America’s Best-in-State financial advisors by Forbes six times. In short, the author knows all about winning, and it’s a lot easier to outpace your peers when you are prepared from the starting gate. In this book, a follow-up to Harnessing Your Wealth — The Pursuit of Millionaire Status, you’ll learn how to: • create wealth – and just as important – sustain it; • cultivate habits that will promote good health; • avoid faulty medical advice; • learn how to manifest miracles. While the concept of miracles is fantasy to most people, the author shares numerous examples of how they have made a difference in his life and in the lives of others. By drawing on his broad array of experience as both a jockey and financial expert, he reveals how to enjoy the benefit of miracles at a greater frequency by connecting to the universe.

When Carole Hanson learns that the newly elected president of a Middle Eastern country will be visiting Washington with his horse-crazy daughter, it seems only natural to write the girl a letter inviting her to come for a ride at Pine Hollow. Carole thinks she might get a reply with an interesting stamp on it. Instead of a stamp, however, Carole gets men with dark suits and sunglasses who walk around Pine Hollow talking into their lapels, looking for spies in the hayloft, and asking for security clearance for horses. Isn't this a little extreme? Especially since the four girls only wanted to go on a trail ride! But when a real spy turns up at Pine Hollow, The Saddle Club rides to the rescue to protect national horse safety!

Is Carole just jealous? And is Zach a mere flash in the pan, or is he the real thing? The upcoming Pony Club competition should give Zach a chance to show everyone what he's capable of and answer those questions. But Zach falls apart, and the show is a disaster. Then he announces that he's going to quit riding. Suddenly it's up to Carole to remind Zach of all the things that make riding and horses so special. Can she convince him to get back in the saddle?
