Until middle age GORDON PRICE had lived the quiet and blameless life of a Hereford farmer. Then his father died and left him a wild young horse which Gordon, at risk to life and limb and with unspoken hopes of sudden fortune, broke in, trained and entered for a race. A top jockey was engaged but unfortunately finished so late that he had time to speak only a brief sentence. ' She's useless,' he said. But, as things turned out, that was not quite the end of the story. Narrator DERYCK GUYLER
