The curiously named, Moondance Alexander is a spirited teen living with her eccentric mother. She is faced with another uneventful summer until she discovers a lost pinto pony named Checkers who has jumped out of his paddock. Although Moondance returns the horse to his rightful owner, the gruff and mysterious Dante Longpre, she is convinced that Checkers is a champion jumper in disguise and is determined to help him realize his full potential. Moondance manages to talk Dante into training her and Checkers for the Bow Valley Classic and despite the criticism of her peers; discovers that perseverance, loyalty and individuality can land you in the winner's circle.

The story of a young girl that is having a hard time fitting in at school only to find a friend in a pinto owned by a local stable owner. This type of film has been done maybe times over in various ways and some have certainly been better but this is still a charming and entertaining film that the entire family can enjoy together and that's never a bad thing. The lead cast is very good and Kay Panabaker as Moondance and Don Johnson as the stable owner work very well together and show some nice chemistry. Inspired by true events the winner of several awards in festivals around the country, Moondance is a film like something you might see on the Disney channel, it's a family film that will have you crying and smiling and most importantly it will keep you entertained.
