Soft cover. 1st Edition. 12mo - over 6¾ - 7¾" tall. pictorial paper195 pages illustratedThis is a unique book about an old man who was able to successfully adopt a novel conditioning and nutrition plan for young Standardbred race horses where others who subsequently tried would fail. Melding human conditioning techniques with horse sense enabled him to dominate the racing scene against long odds not the least of which were: old age poor track conditions failing eyesight amateur driver and inexperienced ferrier. Knowledge that he imparted enabled the author to resurrect young horses rejected from the better stables in South Western Ontario and it is a testament to this old man's methods that over a nine year period not one horse claimed from this stable went on to greater achievement.Very Scarce.
