THEY'RE RACING brings together over two hundred years of stories and stars, personalities and pictures, in a fascinating pageant of fact and colour. All the four-legged heroes are here, from Archer, Carbine, Phar Lap and Tulloch, to Kingston Town, Manikato and Might And Power. And their riders: names like Roy Higgins, Tom Corrigan, Darren Beadman, Scobie Breasley, Darby Munro. The racing identities are featured, from Archer's trainer Etienne de Mestre, leviathan bookmaker Sol Green, and racing identity John Wren, to the modern legends such as T.J. Smith and Gai Waterhouse, the Hoysteds, the Freedmans, Colin and David Hayes, and perhaps the greatest racing man of them all, Bart Cummings.

In these packed pages you'll find words by top sportswriters of the past and present, a touch of scandal as well as many of the great paintings and wonderful photographs that our long history of horse-racing has evoked.

THEY'RE RACING! is the complete story of New Zealand and Australian racing.
