Horse Racing: From Ancient Chariots to the Modern Track
Description
For thousands of years, humans have gathered to watch horses run.
What began as tests of speed and endurance on ancient plains evolved into chariot races before roaring crowds, royal competitions in medieval courts, and eventually a global sport worth billions.
Along the way, it shaped breeding, fueled gambling, and reflected the rise and fall of empires.
From the thunder of hooves in antiquity to the precision of modern racetracks, horse racing has never lost its appeal.
Learn about the history of horse racing on this episode of Everything Everywhere Daily.
