A collection of quotes by and about the horse racing fraternity. This book includes quotations from Carson on Piggott, Pitman on Pipe and Mike Channon on the Queen Mother, and from John McCririck, John Francome, the starter of the 1993 Grand National and more.
The wit, wisdom and gaffes of jockeys, trainers, owners, stable lads, bookies, punters and even royalty are all reflected in this addition to the Stanley Paul quotations series. Whether it's Carson on Piggott, Pitman on Pipe, or Mike Channon on the Queen Mother, it's an odds on bet you'll find it here. Jockeys and trainers talk about their favourite horses and racecourses, as well as each other, owners talk about jockeys and trainers, and they all talk about bookies and the Jockey Club. From the wondrous and sometimes intelligible sayings of John McCririck, the Punters' Friend, to the bluntness of John Francome, from celebrated punters in danger of losing their shirts to the starter of the 1993 Grand National, who lost his job, anyone who's anyone in the racing game will find themselves quoted here.
