Product Description
The Art of the Race uses the beautiful black and white photography of Amanda Lockhart to tell the story of horseracing from start to finish, from the moment of a racehorse's conception to the highs and lows of action on the track. With support and co-operation from horseracing's key figures and organisations, including The Jockey Club, Amanda was granted unique access to all aspects of this hugely popular sport. With additional photographs by race-photographer Dan Abraham, the thrills and spills of many of the world's most famous races are also captured. The pictures are supported by informative captions, and an introduction by Sir Mark Prescott. This is the ideal Christmas present for racing enthusiasts.
Sir Peter O'Sullevan: 'I am genuinely emotional about this sport, and I could have wept with delight at this book.'
Frankie Dettori: 'The Art of the Race is a fabulous book. I recommend it to everyone who appreciates the beauty of the horse and loves their racing.'
