What reading level is The Dark Horse book?
To quickly assess the difficulty of the text, read a short excerpt:
It was the greatest day of the whole racing year. Flags flew over the stands, and banks of potted flowers filled every corner, dahlias in garish colours, chrysanthemums – white, yellow and gold – and the blue of cinerarias. No lawns were ever greener, no ropes and rails whiter, and the track itself stretched like a wide emerald ribbon in the golden sunlight of the Bengal winter.
The Governor had arrived in state; after him, in greater state, the Viceroy, both in four-horse landaus, shaded by... scarlet and gold umbrellas, and accompanied by the Lancers, their horses matched, white sheepskins on their saddles, pennons flying below glittering lance points, jackboots, red coats, white breeches immaculate, and dark faces bearded under a pride of turbans, starched in blue and gold; the whole noiseless on the grass, except for the clink of bits and chains and the creak of leather. There was a fanfare of trumpets in the royal salute while the Stewards stood in an array of grey morning suits, white carnations and white topees, which would presently be replaced by grey top hats.
