Horse racing books biogoraphy
The book looks at the story behind some of the most influential horses from a historical perspective and as it skips through the centuries, it then discusses some of its more recent heroes trained in Ireland.
Certainly the early chapters on The Byerley Turk and Eclipse make for fascinating reading and the part they both played in creating the modern thoroughbred racehorse as we know it.
Some favourite names are dealt with such as Cottage Rake and Nijinsky while more recent memories are jogged with the chapters on Istabraq and Moscow Flyer.
Fifteen horses are included in all as each managed to create their own indelible mark on the sport . The book tells each story with clarity and is well worth a its place in any racing aficionado's library. (DJ)
