Binding: Paperback., No dw/dj,as issued,card wraps.
Inscription: Not SIGNED.

UK,12mo wraps,p/back 1st edn.VG++.[First published Michael Joseph(UK),1964,in hardback.] No owner inscrptn,and surprisingly,no reading creases to spine/ backstrip.Bright,clean,green+blue illustraetd upper wrap with white lettering; with miniscule,negligible shelf-wear to edges and corners and miniscule rubbing to edges - no nicks or tears present.Top edge slightly aged/ tanned - as usual/normal - fore-edge though,brighter; contents bright,tight and clean - no dog-ear reading creases to any pages' corners - an unread copy? UK,12mo wraps,5-223pp [paginated] includes 17 chapters,plus [unpaginated] author's potted biography and title-page. Former Champion Jockey Dick Francis evokes the atmosphere of a racing stable poisoned by the stench of corruption. It looked like the finish for Rob Finn.A brief spell of brilliance,then last for race after race.Had his nerve really gone? Was it dope? Or was the reason so twisted it didn't even bear thinking about? For copyright reasons (then 1967) this edition was not for sale in the USA.A very nice paperback first edition/copy of a rare and much sought after Dick Francis title and early novel.The author's second novel,looked upon as a modern horse-racing classic.Highly sought after and an elusive 1st edn in hardback - only 2,500 copies, even more uncommon in it's first paperback appearance.
