I looked forward to this book, but I was disappointed. The style is repetitive. There are blatant factual errors (such as, just to name one, saying Affirmed was Horse of the Year as a 2-year-old, an error repeated in the table of statistics at the back). I spotted enough wrong that I was afraid to believe any of the things I didn't know. Very much a letdown.
