It was a pandemic year, and as we get ready for the 2021 season it is still not known if or when any sense of the old normality will return.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eThe usual running order required some rejigging but by the end of the year, after an almost complete pattern-race schedule, 174 horses had won a Group 2 or Group 3 race in Great Britain and\/or Ireland and\/or been a British- or Irish-trained winner of such a race in another country, accumulating a total haul of 193 races at those levels. Of those, 26 also won at least once at the highest level, and while that group are reviewed individually in Volume 1: European Group 1 Winners, all of the others are examined here.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eThese prestigious races were as competitive as always and the winners included former Group 1 stars Anthony Van Dyck, Aspetar, Benbatl, Limato, Magic Wand and Romanised, plus standout fillies such as Enbihaar and Fanny Logan, one now retired, the other still in training, whereas the two-year-olds featured several potential Group 1 stars of 2021 including the colt whom many see as the likely Derby hero.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eSome of the year's brightest stars have now moved on to new careers at stud, a few have gone into alternative retirement or will be continuing their careers in other parts of the world, but most of them will be back in action in 2021 for what promises to be another exciting season.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eProduced by a racing and pedigrees writer with over 30 years' experience, the author of \u003cem\u003eEuropean Group 1 Winners of 2019\u003c\/em\u003e, \u003cem\u003eEuropean Group 1 Winners of 2018\u003c\/em\u003e and other titles.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eAuthor:\u003c\/b\u003e Sieglinde McGee\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eISBN-10:\u003c\/b\u003e 1838433112\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eISBN-13:\u003c\/b\u003e 9781838433116\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublisher:\u003c\/b\u003e Sleipnir Press\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eLanguage:\u003c\/b\u003e English\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublished:\u003c\/b\u003e 03\/07\/2021\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePages:\u003c\/b\u003e 684\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eFormat:\u003c\/b\u003e Paperback\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eWeight:\u003c\/b\u003e 1.45lbs\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eSize:\u003c\/b\u003e 7.81h x 5.06w x 1.37d","brand":"Sieglinde McGee","offers":[{"title":"Paperback","offer_id":48153847464191,"sku":"9781838433116","price":26.19,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0662\/2982\/9887\/files\/img_13b2dfb7-5360-4529-8d69-5d5cfddcce13.jpg?v=1770786232","url":"https:\/\/www.whiterainbookhouse.com\/products\/best-racehorses-of-2020-volume-sieglinde-mcgee-9781838433116","provider":"WR Book House","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
