PBEFACE TO THE FIFTH EDITION. 



I HAVE carefully revised the present edition and have 

 made several additions and corrections, which were 

 suggested by the experience I had gained during three 

 years' training and horse dealing in Calcutta and four 

 years' travelling through Egypt, India, Ceylon, China, 

 South Africa and other countries on horse breaking 

 expeditions, since the previous edition had appeared. 

 The racing records, weights for age and class, etc., have 

 been brought up to date as far as possible.
