Summary
Henry Grey doesn't particularly care for having been born the heir to an earldom. He is a reserved young man whose greatest problem is his mother's match-making plots and whose greatest joy is to ride as an amateur steeplechase jockey. But on a sudden impulse, he throws in his respectable desk job to join a firm which transports racehorses all over the world. Yardman Transport proves to be Henry's passport to many things, not the least the girl he loves, and a tidy little racket which brings him face to face with death.

Excellent story with plenty of action and drama.

An excellent story and a world class narrator
Not Mr. Francis' best work, (there are a lot of loose ends at the end) but a rollicking good read none-the-less. Once it got going I couldn't leave it and Mr Britton's expressive voice made the whole experience memorable.

An immersive read
I thoroughly enjoyed the book. It was well written and took me inside the story. I feel so sad that the story is over. Can’t wait for the next book.

excellent
having been a fan of Dick Francis for almost 20 years now, I whave read and re read all of his books. The narrative form has ticked every box, when reading we enter our own imagination. The narrator has his voices down to a tee. I throughly recomennd to any one. five stars.
