![]() West Coast multimillionaire Kyle Tompkins, for example, bankrolls the development of can't-miss racehorse Limitless, honed to competitive perfection by skilled trainer Farley Brown and Farley's ardent prot‚g‚e and assistant trainer Joy Gorham. The encyclopedic story-similar in structure and rhythm to such earlier Smiley successes as A Thousand Acres and the comic romp Moo-spans two years (1997–99) and various Kentucky, California, and foreign locales occupied and frequented by the performers, trainers, moneymen, and aficionados thrust together by their common passion for the sport of kings. A fast-paced, fetchingly detailed, wide-angled view of the world of horse breeding-and-racing-and another lively illustration of Smiley's industrious literary work-ethic and gift for transmuting the products of her obviously extensive research into compelling fiction. ![]()
