Synopsis
This book focuses on all aspects of training horses for racing and hunting. The author, who has vast experience, not only in training racehorses but also in breeding, guides the reader through all the minutiae of horse training and management. Starting with the importance of well-constructed stables and the pros and cons of loose boxes, the author delves into every relevant topic. Whether it's training horses at two years old, the difference between preparing for a race and the actual event, or the importance of sweating, the author leaves no stone unturned as he leads the reader through the training process. He also includes valuable insights into feeding, farriery and lameness, traveling, clipping, wasting, race riding, handicapping, and betting. In addition, the author candidly shares his views on the state of racing, the role of betting, and the influence of weight on horses, providing depth and food for thought beyond the technicalities of training. This book is an essential addition to the library of any horse lover, aspiring trainer, or experienced equestrian seeking to enhance their knowledge and understanding of horse training and management.
