That will be a great read Kev. I've got a feeling that I'll be spending some time in hospital from today so it will.be an enjoyable read.

The photos and drawings from the early days are exceptional. Looking forward to reading the content later. (All the best to Showgrounds re hospital too).

I wonder if it is worth starting a thread re best harness racing books, unless there is one already.
