Details

Chasers & Hurdlers is the end result of careful, independent scrutiny of the racing records of every one of the horses that ran over the sticks, plus a good number of the better Irish and French performers. There are more than 10,000 entries in all and 300 photographs. Timeform's conclusions are arrived at impartially. We are not influenced by trainers' or jockeys' opinions, for example, though they may occasionally be recorded for the additional interest of readers. The information is always presented in the Timeform Annuals so as to be of practical use to those who bet.

Every horse is put under the Timeform microscope to produce a book that, as well as being invaluable to the punter, also has some permanent value as a review of the achievements of the season's more notable horses. Hence the addition of action photos of all the big races and posed portraits of the top performers.
