"A great yarn about ordinary people earning their brush with greatness. I learned about all that could possibly go wrong with a racehorse and what qualities make a thoroughbred stand out from the rest of the herd. It's not just speed! The story reminded me of how much I miss riding.."
"It's a cute little book. If you enjoy horses and the racing industry, this is a nice insiders look. It starts out a little preachy and defensive of blue collar workers and Vietnam vets. Bear with it and when it gets to the horse - enjoy."
