As a sport, where has horse racing been? Where is it now? Where is it going? This is a well-written title that recounts the career of a racing reporter for The Boston Globe and Racing Times (and others) and press box pundit T.D. Thornton. Funny, engaging and sad all at the same time while still being informative, this is still one of my all-time favorite books on our glorious sport.
