  • In 2015, Marty Smith set out to immerse herself in the world of thoroughbred horse racing-to spend time in the stables and training grounds of the Hawke's Bay racecourse, and talk to people in every role. The project turned out to be harder-and more surprising, funny and drawn out-than she'd ever expected. Over ten years, the lives of the racecourse opened up, and the book became a portrait of a changing industry and the people within it. This is a life of hard work and constant risk, as well as community and love. And horses.
