William Jones

[edgt]

Author of "The Dark Horse Inside Coolmore " has written the second of a trilogy of books.
Named " The Dark Horse Is Dying " it is some indictment of the USA racing scene if accurate.
The man obviously has no love for his former employers , it may be a long way to Tipperary but however far it is , it is not far enough for William.
Have any of you read the books or perchance does anyone know William ?

Read the first one...obviously has an axe to grind but it's all business in Coolmore from what I read. The animals are commodities.

I read his second book and I also read his newsletter, the back issues can be found here. He can be contacted through that website.

The reaction to him from industry types is quite interesting. I've seen his described as a disgruntled ex-employee with an axe to grind, a mad man and also ser doesn't he owe John Magnier a fortune. The only person that took him seriously was Paul Kimmage who wrote an article on him in the Independent.

For my money there’s too much smoke wafting around for there not to be a fire.
