| MOSCOW FLYER. 2005. H/B. 1st.Ed. 320pp. Col. illus. Fine in fine D/W. (No inscriptions, price unclipped).
The two-mile steeplechaser is the most exciting athlete on the planet. Half a ton of horse set to carry a rider over twelve five-foot fences at almost forty miles an hour. Moscow Flyer, twice winner of Cheltenham’s Champion Chase but never safe from birch-busting errors, is the most exciting of them all.
Moscow Flyer is much more than just the portrait of the greatest Irish jumper since the legendary Arkle died in 1971. Jessie Harrington’s account of the horse’s journey from a small farm in Limerick to the Cheltenham winners’ enclosure pulls together a cast of characters and a chain of circumstance which become a living metaphor for current Irish life.
