Inhaltsangabe

In a series of evocative, informative pieces from around the racing world, Nicholas Godfrey visits 20 different countries on six continents, from unforgettable high-profle events at major racecourses&;such as the Kentucky Derby at Churchill Downs or the Dubai World Cup at billion-dollar Meydan&;to racing venues on the road less traveled&;like Morocco, Uruguay and Switzerland, where they race on a frozen lake in St. Moritz. Among those he encounters are America&;s mighty mare Zenyatta, Triple Crown hero American Pharoah and Black Caviar, the "Wonder from Down Under." As well as reliving his experiences, Godfrey prefaces each postcard with a how-to guide for those wishing to follow in his footsteps.
