From the Publisher:
'Eclipse first, the rest nowhere'. 'Betting shops are a licence to print money'. These are just two of the most enduring and commented upon quotes about horseracing and betting.
Great quotations reverberate down the years because of their ability to pithily encapsulate a feeling, a significant event, a universally understood truth, in just a few, striking, memorable words. Here, you will find tributes, insults, sarcasm, sympathy, bad language, good humour, insight, ignorance - all the vital ingredients, in fact, of a great day at the races.

"There have only been three Cockers who have topped the UK singles chart. Jarvis and Joe from Sheffield, obviously, and Leeds United's erstwhile trainer, Les, with the 1970 World Cup song Back Home."
