A natural horseman who was always given the rogues to handle, Clive Brittain served 23 years as a stable lad with Sir Noel Murless before he defied tradition by setting up on his own and going on to train the winner of every British classic, except the Derby. This biography of the smiling face of racing is packed characters whose stories have been intermingled with Clives, such as Willie Carson and Captain Marcos Lemos, Pat Eddery, Philip Robinson, Bill Gredley and Lady Beaverbrook.
