Father Herbert is a fine businessman, but his wife Marie-Louise's haughty socialite attitude rubbed off badly on super-spoiled brat daughter Marie-Claire.

The manège's top horse, stallion Amika, doesn't perform well with Marie-Claire as amazon and dandy trainer Casper. Local 'inventor' Tys's equally naive daughter Merel becomes a stable-hand under Jan, who recognizes her inherited riding talent./ Father Herbert in a decent businessman, but his wife Marie-Louise spends money for prestige and their mean brat daughter Marie-Claire is even worse, forming the 'Z-Girls' trio with a dumb and a sarcastic friend. Son Olivier is playful, a prankster but never mean and actually kind and helpful, his sidekick Gringo even more.
