Description: Some of the most famous horses in the world are Thoroughbreds. Secretariat, Seabiscuit, and Man o War are just a few of the celebrated Thoroughbreds who have earned a place in sports history books. This book examines why Thoroughbreds are so skilled at racing with a look at the life of a typical racehorse. Exciting photographs show these spirited animals at rest and in the heat of competition.
