Reviews

"A gem that has stood the test of time: Horses In Training 2023 still does what it says on the tin. What it has done for some 130 years. It is a list of (nearly) every thoroughbred racehorse in training in Britain (and some in Ireland and France) - covering 557 trainers and over 20,000 horses. Is it the sort of book that you start on page 1 and find yourself looking at page 406 two hours later? Of course not. So why, then, did I find myself doing exactly that and almost unable to put it down as I moved through the alphabet?"
