About this listen

Following the death of her bullying husband, Etta Bancroft's selfish children move her to a village in the Cotswolds. One night, she discovers a filly, left to die in the snow. With help, Etta rescues the horse, and she and her friends form a syndicate to pay for her upkeep. As the horse recovers, she begins to show racing pedigree, so the syndicate enters her into a maiden hurdle - and are shocked at the result.

Great narration, fun story. Suffers from too many minor characters, some of whom blur together. The main characters are classic Jilly Cooper; larger than life, some of them deeply unlikeable, some of them incredibly sympathetic. Dramatic license required to stop them becoming a little unbelievable.
A few plot points felt repetitive (how many times would the syndicate meet to discuss selling Mrs Wilkinson only to decide not to? At least once too many)
Would have been nice to have a hear more from familiar faces from previous books, but it's familiar enough for those who already know Jilly's world.
Some pivotal moments were not as emotional as they have been, feeling a bit superficial.

Fun for Jilly fans, but a little by-the-numbers

I love Jilly Copper books and this is no exception. Would have loved Taggie to have had an Irish accent but other than that top notch.

Lovely Jilly
