Product Description

This is the full story of the horse which many racing pundits consider the best racehorse ever to run on the Flat, the horse who captured the hearts of racegoers all over the world. His 2009 achievement of winning the 2,000 Guineas, Derby and Prix de l'Arc de Triomphe is unparalleled in racing history. His unflappable temperament, his apparently effortless abilities to find another gear when the chips were down, and his unruffled demeanor after each race made him the most popular racehorse since the days of Desert Orchid. This is the story of Sea The Stars one of the greatest racing stories ever told.

The book includes contributions from all his connections - trainer John Oxx, jockey Mick Kinane, owner Christopher Tsui and the stable staff who looked after him - as well as a complete record of all his races and full statistics of his phenomenal career. Fully illustrated with stunning photographs from the Racing Post's award-winning photographer Edward Whitaker.
