À propos de ce contenu audio

Episode One explores the thrilling origins of horse racing, beginning with ancient chariot competitions in Greece and Rome where massive crowds packed venues like the Circus Maximus to witness spectacular races and dangerous crashes. Marty Sinclair guides listeners through the transition to mounted racing during the Middle Ages, when knights and nobles competed on horseback across European countryside. The episode highlights the revolutionary development of the Thoroughbred breed in eighteenth-century England, tracing every modern racehorse back to three foundation sires: the Byerley Turk, Darley Arabian, and Godolphin Arabian. Finally, discover how racing spread globally through British colonial expansion, taking root across Europe, Asia, the Middle East, and the Americas, with each culture adding unique traditions while maintaining the sport's universal appeal and timeless excitement.
