Around Kentucky With The Bug Patrick Lawrence Gilligan
Around Kentucky With The Bug
Patrick Lawrence Gilligan
Professional sport, emigration, travel, history, horses, American Pharoah's Triple Crown, winners, losers, ups and downs. Laughter and tears. An account of a father's whirlwind year around Kentucky with his apprentice (bug) jockey son.
A story about fathers and sons. A story about professional sport, and what it takes to make the grade. A story about love, life, traveling and reflecting. And there is even a bit about restrooms.
"So I tell Patrick he can't train and he goes and wins a group race with a £500 horse. Then I say he can't write and he comes up with a gem like this. Oh, and that bug can ride a bit too." --Ed Prosser, European representative Keeneland and formerly race writer and racehorse owner in the UK
