The British Horse Racing Industry
The sport of Kings (and the wealthy) has over three hundred years of history; the thoroughbreds of today's racing stock can be traced back to the three founding sires of modern day racing, 'The Godolphin Arabian' (1724-1753), 'Darley Arabian' (1700-1733) and 'Byerley Turk' (1680-1696).Today horse racing as a sport is the second most televised after football; it generates billions in revenue and it's the backdrop for the most glorious of social events, as provided by such famous courses as Royal Ascot and Epsom. This on-going project explores the relationship between the daily routine of the 'yard' and the highlights of the racing word.
