This new update of the classic Care & Training of the Trotter & Pacer provides detailed - and easily understood - information on breeding, breaking, training, farm management and more.
The latest information on Standardbreds is provided by accomplished, respected harness horsemen like Doug Ackerman, who knows what to look for when choosing yearlings, and Norman Chris Boring, known for his skills in breaking and developing them. Howard Beissinger demonstrates that attention to details such as proper shoeing and hoof care can improve racing success. Charles Sylvester, Per Eriksson, Gene Riegle and Bruce Nickells have trained champion trotters and pacers like Mack Lobell, Giant Victory, Artsplace and Miss Easy, and they share some of their methods. John Campbell and Ron Waples divulge some of their race driving strategies. John Lew, Ph.D., outlines the correct way to feed racehorses, young horses and broodmares; Kenneth Seeber, D.V.M., lists causes, examination and treatment of lameness. Carter Duer talks about caring for broodmares and their foals. Other experts who have made driving and training their life's work share their techniques.
