Excerpt from Handbook of the Turf: A Treasury of Information for Horsemen; Embracing a Compendium of All Racing and Trotting Rules; Laws of the States in Their Relation to Horses and Racing; A Glossary of Scientific Terms; The Catch-Words and Phrases Used by Great Drivers It is interesting to note to what an extent the horse indus try and turf business of the country has invented its own language - a language expressive, unique, and peculiar; one which until now has existed beyond the realm of literature, because it has had lodgment only in the general practice and rugged brains of trainers, drivers, stablemen, and others who have had to do with horses all their lives. So far as the author is aware, the present volume is the first attempt to embody in collected form the technical vocabulary of the track and its equipments, the fraternity of drivers and riders, and the large body of intelligent gentlemen practically interested in horses, driving, racing, and trotting. Hence the book has been com piled from original information obtained on the turf and in the stable, as well as from the horse literature of two centuries.
