Whats the worst way to die? At the end of a rope driven by your own shame and despair? Or savaged in the jaws of a black-hearted stallion who has hated you for years? If only the bankrupt gambler and the stable girl were alive to give us the answer...

For a jockey they say theres no thrill like riding a big winner but Rob Harding has found something better - thats breeding one. His two-year-old colt Goldeneye is the product of Robs own stud farm and, as the horse takes the July Stakes at Newmarket in some style, it seems he can lift Robs failing business out of the mire. But no amount of prize money can deflect the tragedy thats waiting round the corner.

Robs head girl Ivana, a horse-mad beauty from the Czech Republic, would also revel in Goldeneyes triumph except for the terrifying reappearance of her sadistic ex-lover Milos. Shes run a long way to escape from him - but it looks like she hasnt run far enough...
