MERCIER Press has published the first book by Alan Conway, an in-depth look at Coolmore Stud: Coolmore Stud, Ireland’s Greatest Sporting Success Story.

Passionate about the sport of racing, and an admirer of the success of Coolmore and Ballydoyle, Conway was a natural to write this publication.

Tracy Piggott launched the book last week in Dubray Books on Grafton Street and gave guests a fascinating insight into the relationship her father Lester had with Vincent O’Brien.

Although only just available, Alan’s book is quickly becoming a bestseller.
