Robinson P: Horsetrader / B

Horsetrader

Robert Sangster and the Rise and Fall of the Sport of Kings

Born prematurely, weighing less than a bag of sugar, Oisin Murphy's life has always been one of struggle. From a young age he found communion with horses. Mesmerised by their power, their spirit, he discovered a gift for the saddle. Oisin quickly established himself as one of horseracing's most prodigious talents. But reaching the pinnacle of the sport required a high-wire dance that pushed his body and mind to their breaking point. Despite a three-year streak as champion jockey, alcohol addiction lurked beneath the surface, and a string of misdemeanours saw him banned for over a year. "I dealt with success and failure the same. Drink was the rock I perished on. The day I picked up the championship trophy there was no element of joy in it for me."Fast paced and searingly honest, Sacrifice follows Oisin's extraordinary journey back from the brink to recover his love for the sport and reclaim his champion jockey crown in 2024. It lays bare the realities of life as a professional jockey and the personal cost of success in a sport that demands total obsession.

"The story of racehorse Secretariat from the coin toss that sent him to Helen "Penny" Chenery to his burial at Claiborne Farm, making this the definitive volume for fans of the horse and the sport of horse racing"--

Secretariat

Janet Vokes was running the bar in her local working men's club in the Welsh mining community of Cefn Fforest when she fixed upon the idea of breeding a racehorse. She'd always loved animals and why shouldn't a working-class horse take on the wealthy high-flyers and compete in the 'sport of kings'? Her mind set, she bought a mare for ï¿½0, paired her up with a pedigree stallion and helped to create a syndicate of twenty-three residents from her village - each paying ï¿½ a week - to raise the resulting foal, Dream Alliance. He may have grown up on an allotment, but Dream had immediate star quality, beating all the odds to compete at Ascot and Aintree. But when a terrible injury brings his racing days to a standstill, the syndicate is forced to make a vital decision not just about his career, but his life. Inspiring and incredibly moving, Dream Horse is the extraordinary story of a woman who defied the odds to breed a champion, and a remarkable horse who brought a community together.

No Reserve

Bobbie the Wonder dog crossed more than 2,500 miles of plains, desert and mountains to find his way home - and became the inspiration for Lassie. Cher Ami the pigeon, despite being shot twice, delivered a message that saved the lives of 194 soldiers in 1918. Trakr the police dog spent two days exhaustively searching Ground Zero and found the last survivor of the 9/11 attacks. Ever since Alexander the Great named a city after the horse who saved his life in battle (and another after his dog), human history wouldn't be the same without the awe-inspiring tales of amazing animals. Now BAFTA-winning presenter, no. 1 bestselling author and all-round national treasure Clare Balding picks out the most heroic and heartwarming (and sometimes hilarious) animals from history and tells their stories. From Simon the sea cat to Greyfriars Bobby's 14-year vigil over his master's grave, to the elephant that saved a small girl and Paul the World-Cup-predicting octopus, Heroic Animals brings to life incredible feats and moving moments which highlight the timeless special bond between human and animal.
