Description
Amateur jockey Alan York wins the steeplechase, but it's a hollow victory. The champion horse and rider in the lead fails to clear a fence, and the professional jockey dies of his injuries. Curious about how this could happen, Alan begins an investigation that points to corruption transcending the racing circuit.
