In 2004, the Racing Post asked its readers to nominate their three favourite racehorses. Horse racing's bible was not interested in which horses its readers considered to be the greatest in terms of merit. Rather, they wanted to find out those which meant the most to its readers. Over two months, thousands of votes were collected. From the nominations was compiled this definitive list of the 100 most popular horses of all time to race in Britain and Ireland - on the Flat and over the Jumps.

Horseracing is blessed with the richest of histories, but exactly what is it that makes a horserace great? Every racing fan has their own view - and in 2005, the Racing Post decided to find out what its readers thought about the matter by asking them to vote for what they considered the greatest race of all time. The response was overwhelming: over a period of two months, thousands of votes were collected. These were added to the nominations of a specially convened panel of experts to compile the definitive list of the 100 greatest races of all time involving at least one horse trained in Britain or Ireland. Now, in one lavishly illustrated book, you can read about them all - with essays by the Post's top writers and the thoughts of trainers and jockeys most closely involved with such momentous occasions. You can also read about the top races of 2005, plus find out about the most unforgettable races from elsewhere around the globe.

Stories of bravery, determination and some unforgettable horses. Best-selling author and racing insider Anne Holland introduces her fifteen favourite racehorses. It is a dream line-up spanning three hundred years, from the great Byerley Turk, warhorse and ancestor of the thoroughbred line, to the steeplechasers and hurdlers of the twenty-first century. Anne's passion for her subject and extensive knowledge are undeniable, and the drama of a horse and its rider taking a fence or a jockey coaxing his mount to a thrilling finish will grip you. Winners All recreates the times the sport of horse racing has captured imaginations and tells the stories not just of the horses, but also of their bloodlines, of the people behind their breeding and training and of the jockeys who rode them to their successes. This book is rich with entertaining anecdotes and tales of courage, grit and not a little glamour.
