Not By A Long Shot - T.D. Thornton
 
Purchased it after hearing ATR, am only about 60 pages into it, but highly recommend it. Thornton's take on the racing industry seems quite brutally accurate.

Who is T.D.Thornton?

Enjoy it, I loved it. It is sad that the Boston politics have not changed much and Suffolk continues to struggle. Maybe it will stir a desire to come to Boston for the Mass Cap by lots of DTers.

The jockey?

He is the media guy/track announcer at Suffolk Downs. I am nearly through the book and would definately recommend.

I am about that far into it, and can't agree more. Excellent book so far, and I am sure it will get better...
