- Summary
- Death at the races is not uncommon. But three in one day, including the Cheltenham Gold Cup winning horse and a champion jockey, is more than enough to raise suspicions. Sid Halley finds there are several reasons why someone had set their sights on Huv Walker. Now Sid himself, a former jockey-turned detective, could be next on a killer's to-do list

- Summary
- It's the third death on Cheltenham Gold Cup day that really troubles supersleuth Sid Halley. Last seen in 1995's former champion jockey Halley knows all too well the perils of racing--but in his day, jockeys didn't usually reach the finish line with three .38 rounds in the chest. Yet this is precisely how he finds jockey Huw Walker, who only a few hours earlier, won the coveted Triumph Hurdle
