What's here?
Books provides information about my previous books, as well as new projects in the works.
Articles is your gateway to general articles about Thoroughbreds and to links to articles previously published in The Blood-Horse.
Hoofprints is a blog about Thoroughbred racing and pedigrees. It includes "Mares on Monday," which focuses on mares with important links to the previous week's racing.
Horse Profiles takes you to the indexes for the horses whose profiles are included on this site. Names in blue indicate active links; if they are still black, they represent planned additions.
Links will help you find some of my favorite resources on the Internet.
About ACP provides information about the history of the site and its author and contributors. It also provides information for anyone interested in contributing information or pictures.
