Paperback edition of the funny, compelling and candid autobiography of the 'face of racing' Derek 'Tommo' Thompson.

Derek Thompson has been synonymous with horseracing on television for over three decades. Hugely popular, infectiously enthusiastic and boasting almost as many catchphrases as Sir Bruce Forsyth, Derek is the racing fans' favourite. In Tommo, his autobiography, Derek's fascinating life story is told. As comfortable interviewing the Aga Khan as Ronnie Corbett, Derek is the man who beat cancer and High Court humiliation, not to mention the Prince of Wales in a famous Plumpton charity race. He was on the spot, microphone in hand, for some of racing's greatest days, and now in his own words writes about the incredible horses he has watched and the people he has met. Deliciously indiscreet and always entertaining, Derek has countless stories to tell, but the most interesting story of all is his own, and for the first time, good and bad, happy and sad, he is telling it.

Derek Thompson is the well-known TV and radio commentator for Channel 4, Radio 5, talkSPORT and At The Races.
