Plot
The show centers on the world of horse racing and a young girl named Kristine "Kris" Furillo who, after serving time in a juvenile detention facility, works as a stablehand and later a jockey at Raintree Farm. While at Raintree, Kris finds romance and competition with Raintree's rivals, the prestigious Davis Farm, all while rising to stardom in the racing world.
Main cast and characters

A jockey who formerly served time at Camp LaGrange, a correctional facility, for grand theft auto. She shares a special bond with Wildfire, a horse she saved from going to slaughter and helped turn into a champion racehorse.
Matthew "Matt" Ritter Micah Alberti
The oldest son of Jean, and Todd's olde brother. He is co-owner of Raintree Farm along with his mother, inheriting his half of the farm's ownership when his grandfather Jean's father Ritter, died. Early on, Matt wanted nothing to do with the "family business" of horses and racing, but came to discover he had a talent for training and conditioning Thoroughbreds and eventually took over as Raintree's head trainer.
Kenneth Walter Davis "JunioRyan Sypek
Son and namesake of Ken and older half-brother to Dani. He once owned a night club, but made a bet on his club's ownership with his former bookie, Bobby, and lost. He also dabbled in the sport of professional bull riding. Junior is constantly reluctant to take over the Davis Farm operation even though his father insists upon it, and even though Junior tries his hardest to break away from the "rich kid" stereotype, he loves his Porsche convertible. He and Kris marry in the last episode of the series.
Danielle "Dani" Davis Nicole Tubiola
Daughter of Ken Davis, Sr. and Junior's younger half-sister. Dani formerly owned her own racing stable, but then took over as majority shareholder of Davis Farm after her father was indicted on fraud charges. She also runs her own veterinary clinic.
Kenneth "Ken" Walter Davis, Sr. James Rea
Father of Dani and Junior. He made Davis Farms one of the most powerful racing operations in the country before losing control of it by being indicted on six counts of fraud, which forced him to leave Davis Farm and his assets to his children and, in a series of events, lost his role as majority shareholder to Dani. After being acquitted of all the charges, Ken bought back 46% of Davis Farms.
Jean Ritter Nana Visitor
Matt and Todd's mother and the co-owner of Raintree Farm. Jean is a mentor and often a mother figure to Kris; she often bumps heads with Kris and her son, Matt, over Wildfire's training and how Raintree should be run. Amanda Seyfrie
