Product Information
Phar Lap is the thrilling, mysterious and tragic story of how a horse became a hero of his time and an icon of a nation. In 1929, he was a gangly gelding born and bought cheaply in New Zealand, rejected by his American owner and trained by an Aussie battler who could hardly feed his family yet agreed to feed the horse. His best mate was Tommy Woodcock, a young horseman who himself became a racing folk hero. Today, a strong case can be put that Phar Lap was the best there ever was certainly, there has never been a champion who so consistently and clinically made hacks of all his rivals. This is the most complete account of Phar Lap's life ever published. It studies in depth the many mysteries of his career, including the infamous shooting that occurred just days before his great triumph in the 1930 Melbourne Cup. It brings to life the characters of the racetrack and examines the way an emerging media played its part in building the legend. It provides the definitive analysis of his previously unexplained death in North America. And it explains why Phar Lap is so much more than simply a racehorse.Product Identifiers
