EclipseBantam, 2009 - 344 sider "Epsom Downs, 3rd May, 1769: a chestnut with a white blaze scorches across the turf towards the finishing post. His four rivals are so far behind him that, in racing terms, they are 'nowhere'. Awestruck, his spectators know they are in the presence of greatness. Eclipse will go on to become the undisputed, undefeated champion of his sport. He will found dynasties that will dominate the bloodstock market - not only in Britain, but in every other country where thoroughbreds race. His influence will be such that ninety-five per cent of horses racing today are his male-line descendants."--Publisher's description. |
