Looking back on 50 years of the Usha Stud Farm. Grit, Grace & Glory: The Usha Story celebrates the vision, resolve, and farsightedness of India's top horse breeders Pradeep Mehra and his daughter Ameeta, through rare photographs and an eloquent, heartwarming narrative. The book also dives into the technical profiles and detailed statistics of horses that made, and continue to make, Usha the leading stud farm in India today. The book is an intimate exploration of Pradeep Mehra's struggles as a " backyard breeder" with no assets other than an eye for, and understanding of, horses. It captures the turmoil of his tragic passing and the challenges Ameeta overcame as she gathered the reins, and took forward his dream. In February 2023, Usha Stud achieved what no other stud farm in the world has ever been able to - a clean sweep, its horses placing 1-2-3-4 in a national derby!
