Anyone seen this book from DRF? My wife bought it for me for Christmas, and I must say, it is tremendous. It has short summaries of each decade of racing in the 20th century, then is followed by lifetime PPs for all the champions of the decade. Not only is it a great historical reference, but you can learn a lot about form cycles of the top class horses.

Find some neat trivia once along with many other tidbits.

One example, Skywalker beat Turkoman in a NW1 allowance race in 1985, only to have the result repeat itself one year later in the BC Classic...now that's a key race!
