Marten Julian's Dark Horses Annual, first published in 1976, is acknowledged and recognised throughout the racing community as the authoritative source of information about unexposed and unraced talent.

This year's edition features: The Dark Horses—the majority of them unraced or very lightly-raced—including the name of an unraced horse from a small dual-purpose yard in Yorkshire; 20 Premier List selections including a once-raced but highly-regarded colt from a small northern yard, a lowly-rated handicapper who has finished out of the frame in three runs and a leading Newmarket trainer's idea of his best maiden; 25 Dark Handicappers including a choice selection of horses which have earned modest marks after three unplaced efforts, many of them from low-profile yards; Marten's preview and ante-post recommendations for the 2,000 Guineas, the 1,000 Guineas, the Derby and the Oaks; Marten's in-depth analysis of the relative merits and achievements of Black Caviar and Frankel—two of the greatest racehorses of this generation; Ante-Post prices and a full and comprehensive Index
