Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from The Blue Ribbon of the Turf When the hundredth anniversary of the Derby fell to be celebrated, I thought we might then see announced a history of the turf's most-coveted prize. But the centenary of the world-renowned race passed over without anyone having ventured to write a sketch of its history. That task has in the meantime been left to me: and has been a pleasant one, although materials for a chronicle of the earlier contests have proved scarce. I have made several vain searches to procure a list of 'entries' for the first Derby; fortunately, however, the names of the runners for what proved to be the beginning of a wonderful series of tine races have been preserved, and a competent authority has informed me that the entries for the premier Derby were taken when the horses were 'two-year-olds, ' and that the gentlemen promised to subscribe again.

Download or read book Turf Memories of Sixty Years Classic Reprint written by Alexander Scott and published by Forgotten Books. This book was released on 2017-12-25 with total page 356 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from Turf Memories of Sixty Years AT no time during the past sixty years has public interest in the Turf been greater than it is to-day. Not only are contemporary events enthusiastically fol lowed, but racing history itself is often discussed with an ardour that would gladden the hearts of bygone Turf celebrities were they alive now. In the hope that it may revive memories for the older section of racegoers, and be instructive to the younger generation, this volume has been written. I often wonder if it is generally realised how numer ous are the former. Habitues of the various race meetings are among the healthiest and longest living people in the country. The average man who attends a race meeting seldom realises the immense mental and physical benefit thus obtained. The fresh air, the spirit of cheery good-fellowship that pervades almost every gathering of racing folk, and the excitement of watching varying phases of a race, are to me the finest tonic in the world, and I have seldom left a racecourse without feeling well braced up in mind and body. Whether the present generation will rival their racing forebears in the matter of longevity is a debatable point.

This book was released on 2017-12-19 with total page 312 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from Racing Reminiscences and Experiences of the Turf, Vol. 2 of 2 That the practice of betting is in many ways mis chievous and calculated to do harm is a truism which need not be disputed; but men always have betted, and doubtless always will bet, and it would be affec tation and senseless prudery to exclude the subject from a book on the Turf. Newspapers condemn the custom in one column and publish the latest odds in the next; solemn dignitaries denounce it and sit down to play whist for sixpenny points, which is practi cally very much the same thing. I have therefore thought it well to give here some of the results of my experience and observation of what is called the Turf Market.' If the young lover of racing is not inclined to bet, it is, no doubt, well for him to avoid it if he is, he may derive matter for reflection from the remarks of one who has habitually taken the odds, and on occasions laid them, for many years past.
