The man wrote so many that it's hard to pick one, but try his 33rd novel Wild Horses. It's good and has the added bonus of having film-making as a backdrop as well as horse racing.<br /><br />Francis was English and rode for the Queen Mum, so be aware that all the race horsing events take place mostly on the other T.

Do you happen to recall any titles that you could recommend? (Didn't know he wrote 42 novels.) <br />As an aside...2009 was a great year for horse racing fans although hardly anyone I know follows the 'sport of kings' any more.
