Fine Tuning Barrel Horses, by champion barrel racer and barrel horse trainer Jessi Mead, is for every horse owner wishing to produce a top-level barrel horse. This detailed manual based on Mead's thirty years as a champion barrel racer and trainer outlines such training and fine-tuning techniques as determining the horse's training needs and meeting them; developing barrel turns, measuring barrel pockets, marking pocket points, teaching the horse collection and controlled speed. Every element of the barrel pattern is explained in clear diagrams using math, physics, and science. The chapters on rate and turn, detecting and correcting problems, and information on all phases of competition are essential. Her unique use of visual aids for horse and rider enhances the training and learning process, increasing the accuracy and consistency of barrel runs. The most thorough and informative manual available today, and a must for everyone involved in barrel racing.

In "Sixty Years of Welsh Champions," breed expert Dr Wynne Davies presents a complete record of equine champions from the Royal Welsh Show, 1947-2007. Arranged chronologically, each year lists the female and male champions from each of the four Sections, displaying their pedigree charts (going back to the great-great-grandparents), and records details of the breeder and exhibitor. Each entry is accompanied by a photograph, some of which have never before appeared in print. In addition, the introduction to the book offers a brief history of the show, detailing the changes in the Section classes and the story behind the fluctuation in the number of entries. Both a beautifully presented book with numerous stunning photos, and an exhaustive record of the event at the heart of the Welsh breeders calendar, this is a must have for every Welsh Pony and Cob enthusiast.
