This review is from: The American Racing Manual 2007: The Offical Encyclopedia of Thoroughbred Racing (Hardcover)

If you have a question about some facet of the Thoroughbred industry, the answer is probably waiting to be found in the nearly 2,400 pages of this encyclopedia.

The Daily Racing Form remains a respected name in the release of publications covering the gamut of the sport and this vast resource tool stands at the apex. And this is not simply a volume that will find a cozy home on a bookshelf; it is a magnificent guide that will be used for years.

Like a champion who can find the winning stride on dirt, turf and synthetic surfaces, the current edition of the manual is the class of a quality field of reference guides that are on the track.
