In it he explains how to select, train and campaign horses of all aptitudes to become tough, competitive winners. Burch will teach you how to select yearlings with potential, break and train impressionable young horses, select training regimens to condition horses as individuals, select races which will improve the horse, and how to pick the jockey which is best suited for the animal. You will learn how to feed simple rations that turn into strength and stamina, manage your racing stable so horses remain calm yet fit and how to win more races by understanding the condition book.

There is a large amount of fundamental training information in this simply written little book. The sections on conditioning schedules are invaluable. The degree of conditioning Burch afforded his horses is probably unmatched today. Read this book, and then end it to your trainer (if he can read). Rating: - If you are just starting in this business...read this book.If you are just starting out in this business, you should read this book. Preston Burch gives you a simple, direct and enlightening understanding of thoroughbred horses.
