Six smart movers come up with a killer caper to score millions in bets on the racetrack by substituting a super gelding for a lookalike no-hoper in one race.
Ingenious minds go to work, and the caper hits the button.
But what the movers fail to see is that the no-hoper horse belongs to a little country town that boasts an adoring team of no-hoper groupies who have their hearts set on their hero’s real-time success.
But there’s a polished spider in the web—an ego-rich man of means who noses a con and plots its public upset, thus ignoring the wishes of the adoring groupies. What begins as the killer caper of its time, slowly turns into a sneaky battle of wits. Adoring little towns have been known to breed big dreamers.

MY EARLY LIFE WAS SPENT in live theatre: acting, direction, designing, writing. That led to a career in television: writing cop shows, panel games and soaps for Crawford Productions in Melbourne and Reg Grundy Productions in Sydney and Brisbane. I partnered in one fine dining room and two theatre restaurants (Victorian melodrama and satirical revue . . . The Mark Twain and The Living Room Brisbane). As a weekly columnist for the Brisbane Courier-Mail, Brisbane Sun, and The Brisbane Sunday Mail, I had a twenty-two-year second career writing lifestyles, food, theatre, fashion, entertainment and mainstream events (London, Paris, California, Hong Kong, Singapore, Kuala Lumpur, Hawaii, Finland, all Australian capitals). I do not write about people or places I haven't experienced. Currently freelancing. Happily married to an amazing woman: two kids, three grandkids, one poodle.
