Excerpt from Young Race-Horses: Suggestions for Rearing
I trust that my practical experience as a breeder of most descriptions of stock may be held to excuse me for offering an opinion on so important a subject as the rearing and feeding of blood stock. I should not venture to put forward the suggestions in the following pages had not its application to horses and cattle been productive of strikingly beneficial results.
The history of the horse, including the race-horse, has been my study for many years. I have also carefully watched the success which has attended the horses of certain studs from the days of Mr. Bowes, Lord Glasgow, Mr. Merry, Sir Joseph Hawley, Lord Falmouth and the Hampton Court Stud down to the horses bred and raced in more recent times.
