Samenvatting:

The perfect gift for any horse racing fan. This exciting new book from the Racing Post, the nation's voice of horse racing, has 192 colour pages packed with interviews and features on all the best stories of the racing year and beautifully illustrated with stunning images by award-winning photographer Edward Whitaker. And there is everything you'd expect from an Annual: competitions, offers, prizes, humour and a sometimes serious, sometimes irreverent look back on the best and worst of the year. Contents include: The inside story of Frankel the wonder horse; the amazing recovery of Monet's Garden; big-name interviews including Ruby Walsh, Hayley Turner, Donald McCain and the Waley-Cohens; how the top races were won, from the Cheltenham Gold Cup to the Derby; the names and faces to watch in 2012; the Annual Awards; Ireland's festival heroes; the global superstars; the best gambles, bets, quotes and unusual stories of the year; statistics and comment on the top performers of 2011; and much more.
