Felix Francis Crisis

The Oxford English Dictionary defines a crisis as:

‘A time of intense difficulty or danger’

For my granddaughter

Sophie Elizabeth Francis

Born June 2018.

With my grateful thanks to:

Merrick Francis, Chairman, Lambourn Trainers’

Association; Matt Bosworth, solicitor and crisis

manager; and to the trainers and people of

Newmarket who gave me huge help.

And also to my wife, Debbie, with love.

At the ‘Guineas Ball’ in Newmarket in April 2018, an auction lot was sold to have the successful bidder included as a character in this book. The funds raised were for the Injured Jockeys Fund, in particular for the Peter O’Sullevan House rehabilitation centre to be constructed at the British Racing School in Newmarket.

Mrs Michelle Morris was the successful bidder and hence she and her husband Mike exist as themselves within these pages.

All other characters are fictitious.
