Description

Kevin Conley (au). Every year, on Valentine’s Day, the great Thoroughbred farms open their breeding sheds & begin their primary business. For the next 150 days, the cries of stallions & the encouragement of their handlers echo through breeding country. This book takes us into this strange & seductive world: Lexington’s Overbrook Farm, where the world’s leading sire, Storm Cat, earns $35 million a year; the auction halls, where sheiks & bookies bid millions for well-bred offspring; Three Chimneys, home of Seattle Slew; Running Horse Farm, on the banks of the Rio Grande; & California, where we meet Cee’s Tizzy, one of the state’s busiest stallions. This book looks at intimate acts in idyllic settings & the billion-dollar business behind them.
