About Noor: A Champion Thoroughbred's Unlikely Journey from California to Kentucky:
In Noor: A Champion Thoroughbred's Unlikely Journey from California to Kentucky, award-winning turf writer Milton C. Toby recounts the story of Noor, an Irish-bred import which became a worthy successor to Seabiscuit for owner Charles S. Howard. Noor defeated Triple Crown winner Citation four times in 1950, setting three world records in the process, and he probably should have been voted Horse of the Year.
Noor: A Champion Thoroughbred's Unlikely Journey from California to Kentucky artfully mixes the story of a magical year from racing's golden era with one woman's inspiring journey to preserve the memory of a long-forgotten champion.
