Racing is a national obsession. Few escape its
fascination, from the highest in the land to
the promiscuous and ungovern d crew , the
sporting female to the sober novelist, the poet
laureate to the pamphleteer. P.J.M. Has
assembled their tributes to produce a
delightful little giftbook, a lavishly illustrated
compendium of prose and poetry perfect for
every man - and woman - of the turf.
From John Berjeman an evocative piece on
the heart of England s racing country, from
Hilaire Belloc a cautionary tale on the bookie
and from Enid Bagnold the off for Velvet at
the National. There are thrills and spills from
dashing Dornford Yates and the august
Daniel Defoe. A stableful of winners, then,
placing Racing Rhymes as a firm favourite for
the Christmas Stakes.
