A quirky collection of true stories from the stranger side of horse
racing, featuring horse-swapping skulduggery, battling jockeys and
a horse that may or may not have beaten a train. Extraordinary but
true stories from over 150 years of racing. This hilarious,
sideways look at horse racing vividly recounts many of the
strangest moments and oddest incidents from over 150 years of the
sport's history. Andrew Ward recalls the time when spectators
mounted two fallen horses and rode them to second and third places;
the race which had to be re-run because the judge wasn't in his box
at the finish; the ultrasonic binoculars that allegedly stunned a
horse and unseated a jockey at Ascot, and many more. A totally
original, offbeat collection of extraordinary but true stories,
Horse-Racing's Strangest Races will be a delight to all lovers of
the turf. Word count: 60,000
