Headless Horsemen: A Tale of Chemical Colts,… par Jim Squires
horse racing did it to itself. not a whole lot of sympathy for those guys.
The author's self-deprecating humor made this an entertaining read.

Jim Squires is a charming raconteur with a tale of rage to pass on about the practices of the modern thoroughbred industry. You'll laugh out loud at his easy style, and want to sip a scotch with him. Full disclosure, I have. He is a friend and contributor to the New York Times The Rail Blog. Don't hold either against him, and you'll enjoy a wonderful read.
