1986 – What did Yukio Okabe see from the Emperor's back?
Due to overwhelming fan demand, the memorable classic is reissued for the first time in 40 years.

Published in 1986, the year Symboli Rudolf retired, Rudolf's Back is a valuable memoir by renowned jockey Yukio Okabe, who chronicled his thoughts, racing philosophy, and conversations with the horse, as he journeyed alongside Symboli Rudolf, the first undefeated Triple Crown winner in history.

The fervor of the racing world at the time, relationships with trainers and stable staff, and how one horse can change a person –
An enduring non-fiction work depicting the bond of trust between a racehorse and a human.
