Book Synopsis The Scots & The Turf by : Alan Yuill Walker
Download or read book The Scots & The Turf written by Alan Yuill Walker and published by Black & White Publishing Ltd. This book was released on 2017-11-25 with total page 441 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The Scots & The Turf tells the story of the great contribution made to the world of Thoroughbred horse racing by the Scots and those of Scottish ancestry, past and present, culminating with the 2017 Grand National winner One For Arthur. The influence has been across the board, from jockeys to trainers and owners, as well as many legendary horses. Outstanding personalities include trainers Mark Johnston on the Flat and Alan King over jumps, five-time champion Flat jockey Willie Carson, and the greatest of all jumping enthusiasts, the late Queen Elizabeth The Queen Mother. While they are long established names, the 21st century has embraced a new roll of honour headed by One For Arthur's trainer Lucinda Russell, Keith Dalgleish, who has established new records for a Scottish-based (Flat) trainer, and Lucy Alexander, a brilliant young jump jockey, and many others. Recognition of the part played by all those from north of the border is long overdue and The Scots & The Turf sets the record straight with a fascinating account of those who have helped make horse racing into the fabulous spectacle it is today.

Download or read book The Scots written by Alistair Moffat and published by Casemate Publishers. This book was released on 2011-06-01 with total page 199 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This unique “fusion of science and the physical history” traces the story of the Scots through their DNA (Sunday Herald). An almost limitless archive of our history lies hidden inside our bodies, and this book traces the ancient story of Scotland from that scientific viewpoint. The mushrooming of genetic studies, of DNA analysis, is rewriting history in spectacular fashion. In Scotland: A Genetic Journey, Alistair Moffat explores the history that is printed on our genes, and in a remarkable new approach, uncovers the detail of where Scots are from, where they have journeyed, and who they are—and in so doing, vividly colors in a DNA map of Scotland. “[Moffat] is wonderfully able to communicate the epic elements of the story.” —Scotsman

Book Synopsis The Scots and the Turf by : Alan Yuill Walker
Download or read book The Scots and the Turf written by Alan Yuill Walker and published by Black & White Publishing. This book was released on 2017-10 with total page 0 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The Scots & The Turf tells the story of the amazing contribution made to the world of thoroughbred horse racing by the Scots, and those of Scottish ancestry, past and present -- including 2017's Grand National winner One for Arthur. Throughout the years, this contribution has been across the board, from jockeys to trainers and owners, as well as some superb horses. Currently, Scotland has a great ambassador in Mark Johnston, who has resurrected Middleham in North Yorkshire as one of the country's foremost training centres, while his jumping counterpart, Alan King, the son of a Lanarkshire farmer, is now based outside Marlborough. The greatest lady owner of jumpers in recent years was Queen Elizabeth the Queen Mother, while Stirling-born Willie Carson was five-times champion jockey on the Flat. These are, of course, familiar names to any racing enthusiast, but they represent just a small part of the Scottish connection that has influenced the Sport of Kings down the years. Recognition of the part played by those from north of the border is long overdue, and The Scots & The Turf now sets the record straight with a fascinating account of those who have helped make horse racing into the fabulous spectacle it is today.
