In this episode, we explore the rich history of horse racing, tracing its origins from ancient times through the evolution of thoroughbred racing in England. It highlights the influence of royal patronage, particularly during the reign of Charles II, and the establishment of Newmarket as a premier racing hub. The discussion also delves into the cultural aspects of racing, including gambling, women's roles, and key thoroughbred stallions' impact on the sport's legacy.
