The Kingmaker

Postby Shergar » Mon Dec 09, 2013 8:47 pm

Finally got around to buying and reading Mahubah's book, The Kingmaker. Really brought to life the story of ND and his connections. The appendix's listing ND's stakes winners was especially interesting to me as Mahubah gave the conduit mare to each SW. Thrilled to see that as I am a big fan of the Modern Conduit Mare theory.

Just order Goldrush and can't wait to get my hands on it.

After that will have to try and find a gently used copy of Classic American Pedigrees at the right price.

If you want a real eye opener read about Neartic and Nearco.

Always glad to know someone is enjoying my work!
