Bred to Run: The Making of a Thoroughbred

Rating:
Summary: Very Informative!!
Review: This is a book about the behind the scences happenings at Claiborne Farms in Paris, Kentucky. It is an informative look at the breeding side of Claiborne Farm and tells about the history and some about the past stallions that lived there. It talks about the routine that goes on there and also talks of some of the farms policies for the stallions, mares and employees. There is also a section in the middle which has black and white pictures of famous stallions like Secretariat, Man O' War, Princequillo, Nasrullah, Nearco, Northern Dancer, Nijinsky II, Bold Ruler, Buckpasser, Native Dancer, Mr. Prospector, Alydar, and more. The pictures are half page and include a brief description of the stallions sons and daughters. I rate this book with four stars. I don't know exactly why it wouldn't get five stars, but I don't feel that five would be correct.
