Description

Set in the late 1960s, Quest for Gold is an evolving tale of a racing family that realises it owns a potential champion. The handsome black gelding, which bears the family name of 'Bretton', is a treasure, an animal most owners can only dream of.


John Bretton is the 'black sheep' of the family. His dubious occupation as a racing tipster, brings an exciting but risky lifestyle in which he thrives. But John's activities have been met with disapproval by his father, Major Bretton, who is the family's licensed trainer. The Major has disowned his eldest son and barred him from visiting the family home and stables.


Although not seeing eye-to-eye with his father, John has kept close contact with his sister Felicity, and younger brother Anthony, an accomplished amateur rider. One day, in the Major's absence, Felicity invites John to visit. During his stay, John, himself a competent horseman, accepts an invitation to give 'Bretton' a spin. Following a hair-raising experience in the saddle, comes a chance encounter with the attractive wife of a neighbouring trainer. The instant chemistry between the two leads to a secret affair. But beyond their illicit love affair, dangerous implications are lurking. 


That autumn, 'Bretton' is back from a summer of grass, and the horse begins his winter campaign. He will be specifically trained for next year's Gold Cup, the ultimate prize in National Hunt racing. In a thrilling winter of racing, the big black gelding faces formidable opposition from Ireland.


As the Gold Cup approaches, there is a shock in store for John, and Bretton is moved to another trainer…. 


Michael E Dimmer conveys the excitement of the racing world in gripping detail, and reveals some of the dark secrets of the tipster's life. Quest for Gold will be enjoyed by anyone interested in the sport of kings.
