Print on Demand. This book offers a fascinating glimpse into the world of horse racing in mid-19th century England, a time when the sport was undergoing dramatic change. The author examines the evolving state of the Turf, exploring the burgeoning popularity of the sport, the growing number of horses in training, and the emergence of new racecourses. He also delves into the complex legal landscape surrounding racing, particularly the rules governing betting and the ongoing debate surrounding the practice of handicapping. The author's sharp observations reveal the social and economic forces shaping the sport. He sheds light on the financial incentives that drive the establishment of new racecourses and the potential for exploitation within the system.
