Colin’s Ghost tells the history of thoroughbred racing through primary sources and contemporary news accounts with the occasional observation about the current racing scene. Here you will find stories of the horses, courses, and people that have found a place in the deeply fascinating history of horse racing.

Colin’s Ghost publishes new articles every week from Derby prep season to the Breeder’s Cup.

In 2008, the Daily Racing Form’s Steve Crist called Colin’s Ghost one of “…the best of the current blogs…” and “…among the most interesting racing journalism being practiced anywhere.”
