About the book
Dan Briden is interviewing dozens of the country’s leading and lower-profile trainers, bloodstock agents and owners, to learn what they have to say about their current crop of two-year-olds.
Each section includes an extensive profile of the horse’s pedigree together with direct quotes from the connections.
Marten Julian adds his horses to note from the book, with personal insights drawn from his past recollections of the sires, mares and families of the featured horses.
This book will prove an invaluable source of reference for both this season and way beyond.
Review
The Racing Post – The Sunday Review
“Priceless insight on juvenile insight before the stars hit the track”
Client review 3 July 2021
“I’m not sure if you get much feedback about The Two-Year-Old Guide but I can’t put it down, so much research, knowledge and comments has gone into it, I’m really glad I came across it, as it has paid for itself ten times over.”
Client review 13 July 2022
“For many years I looked forward to the annual publication of Steve Taplin’s Two Year Old Guide.
On his unfortunate death I feared that we would never have such a resource again but my fears proved to be unfounded and the estimable Dan Briden has taken on Steve’s mantle and has recently produced the 2022 edition of his Two Year Old Guide.
This is the third edition Dan has produced and it is obviously a work of love. There is a wealth of information from over 30 of our top trainers. It is in a beautifully produced format and all for the price of £20 which is incredible value. I cannot recommend it highly enough.”
