This is a really fun and exiting book about a girl called Charlie and her horses Nobel Worrior (alos known as Noddy) and his best pal Percy. Percy and Noddy are the best of friends and are allways together. Noddy is very nervios and Percy calms him down. In this book Noddy gets kidnaped. The Basses are haveing an openday and there are 2 mysteryus men and Charlie is suspicius of them. And when she, her mum and dad and Joe who helps on the farm go to the BBC breakfast show, Granny Pam stays home and looks after Harry and Larry Charlies Annoying brothers stay up late and wach Horror movies, and don't go and check on the horses and other animals. Charlie, Harry, Larry, Joe, Granny Pam, Mrs Bass and Borris Charlie's dog go on an exiting chase to try and find Noddy. I would highly recomend it to everyone espeshially someone who loves Horses.

There were two strange visitors at Charlie's Open day for Noble Warrior. They asked a few strange questions then melted into the crowd. Then a few days later, in the dead of the night Noble Warrior gets stolen. Charlie had to crack all clues to find them. It was a fiction book and the best person was Charlie. Yes, it was interesting and the best part was when Charlie finds Noble Warriors, the kidnappers get jailed and everyone's happy.

I loved this book because it was really funny! I also liked it because it teaches you about how people used to treat horses.

This was a good book. It was an adventure story about a horse. I liked the main character Charlie as she trained the horse and saved the day when he was stolen. Her brothers were funny. I would recommend this book.

I thought that it was a really good book. I liked Charlie Bass the most along with Noble Warrior. It got me interested when the horse was stolen.

I really loved this book because it was about horses and a bit of adventure packed in too. I recommend it to 6 to 9 year old children.

This book is absolutely fantastic. I enjoyed how it was part of a series and if you've read the racehorse who wouldn't gallop you will know that in it a girl called Charlie Bass accidentally buys a scared racehorse called Nobel Worrier or Nody for short an they have a hard time getting him to run without his best friend Percy. This book is a brilliant follow up book. My favourite character would have to be Percy as he is such a funny little fellow and he brings so many laughs along the way. I also love Harry an Larry because they are basically Percy in human form. I can't wait to read the racehorse who learnt to dance and will definitely recommend this book to anyone who is looking for a fantastic book to rea this is summer. This is worth five stars from me.

This book is amazingly interesting. If you like mysteries, solving clues, horses, friendship, and action, this book is for YOU! I liked Charlie best because she is brave and quick thinking, as well as loyal and kind. She is a true friend to Polly, and she’s there for people when times are tough. I would recommend this book to both girls and boys. It is quit thick tho, in fact, it has 247 pages! There are quite a lot of words on each page, and there aren’t many pictures. But if your a confident reader you should enjoy this book. I wouldn’t recommend this book for children under 8 years old (unless you are a confident reader). As it is quite long and a bit difficult to read. Perfect for confident 11 year old readers like me. I think children over 14 might find this a bit boring tho. But for children between 8 and 14 this is a really interesting book. I realised that you can’t read the blurb on this site so I thought I’ll write that down in case anyone’s interested. Life is getting back to normal for Charlie Bass after her reluctant racehorse, Noble Warrior, won the Derby. Then, in the dead of night, Noble Warrior vanishes. The police are baffled. The clues are few. And if Charlie can’t track down her beloved horse herself, she may never see him again. . . Make sure you guys read the Epilogue, it’s very interesting! Enjoy reading ~

This was the best book I’ve ever read because it had some amazing things on it when the horse got stolen nobody knew until a couple of minutes later and the other thing was even better because it was because it was very creepy or not creepy just a bit worrying but in the end it’s really good but you’ve got to be careful to read them in order because otherwise you don’t know what it means

I thought it was really good. I liked Polly best as she was so determined to do what she wanted even though her parents said no. I would recommend it to anyone who likes horses.

This book was enjoyable to read because it's quite exciting and is a good follow on from the previous book in the series (The Racehorse who wouldn't gallop). I would recommend this book to people who enjoyed the previous book, people who like horses, as well as people who enjoy mystery books. My favourite character is Percy the mischievous Pony. When Noble Warrior the Derby winner is kidnaped (horse naped) the Bass family has to work together to find their beloved horse before it's too late.
