Description

It's so remarkable, it's almost absurd. There has been a dynamic I've never understood, the way people have warmed to her. She is re-defining our lives. Part-owner Colin Madden. When Black Caviar raced to her historic victory in the 2012 Diamond Jubilee Stakes at Royal Ascot, she showed the world what Australians already knew - theirs was a racehorse that redefined the word 'champion'. With Ascot the crowning achievement of a record-breaking career, Black Caviar has won every one of the 22 races she has started in, and captured the hearts of a sport loving nation - as well as the world. Filled with sensational photographs and revealing insights from the trainers and jockeys and the owners as well as sporting writers around the world, this book will reveal the power and endurance of Black Caviar and her amazing winning streak. The ultimate book for any Black Caviar fan and a tribute to a true Australian sporting great.
