He was the highest-placed finisher trained by a woman since its inaugural running in 1875. A record that still stands to this day as the 150thrunning approaches. Casual Lies went on to run in all three Triple Crown races, another record.

Casual Lies – A Triple Crown Adventure
It’s a new cover, but it tells the same great story about the bond that develops between a horse and his trainer.Labyrinth of Ruin
Your expertise in horseracing shines through in “Labyrinth of Ruin,” offering readers a unique and thrilling perspective on dragon racing — Anthony Ryan.
The ability to communicate with dragons is essential in competitive dragon racing. When Jackson McLoughlin is born lacking this gift, he’s labeled ‘Creature Deaf.’
Assigned only the most menial tasks around the racing stable, Jackson’s sense of inadequacy festers, and he increasingly isolates himself emotionally.
After Jackson saves Tivet, a tiny dragonet, from profound abuse, a bond forms that transcends their differences, a bond that speaks of resilience and hope. More than malnourished and underdeveloped, Tivet is a unique creature who defies the norms of the racing community. As he blossoms under Jackson’s care, their unusual connection becomes a source of strength and hope.
But as the unlikely duo explores their growing bond, a sinister threat looms over their small Irish racing community. Like a creeping shadow, corrupt forces are gaining a foothold, threatening to shatter the harmony and fairness that once defined their world. The stakes are high, and the time for action is now.
