Derick the Postman, had to sit, his carbuncle was killing him. he had done this round of Old Holborn since the 70s and had never been beaten, before, he hoped that the sender of this great parcel. was grateful.
Another sterling effort and the Books were in Lord Hartingtons Jockey Club, In tray. why they had given the new adviser,the job of reading books from some obvious crack pot was beyond him,

The first volume was headed 1940/1960 so it was obviously diary, only in name, it would have been best described as large note book,,the others were from 1960 to the present day 1985.

Jumping from day one to the end, Hartington, saw that at least it contained a letter, perhaps of condolence, he whispered, as he was the only person in his office, he called for back up.

Dear Sir,
Please find enclosed, a secret report, that was given to me by the famous Newmarket jockey, Richard Tindle. my grandfather.who died in 1980.

In his last will and testament along with the documentation he asked that I bring a very important issue to the door of the British Horse racing Authority The Jockey Club.

The gist of my letter is that during 2 decades, there has been a Jockey Ring, operating on the majority of our British racecourses..
This ring is part of a conspiracy to defraud the British public who funds the sport through his gambling, on horse racing,

Books 1 to 5, contain every jockey/horse/meeting were the conspiracy took place, also the betting prices, of the transactions,
I have the evidence that proves that one person, or family, has organised, the “Ring effectively using
a discreet method of payment, based upon the jockeys ability, and through a standing order monthly into there personnel banking systems.

What makes the scheme so unique is that the jockeys were introduced from an early age as soon as they become successful, and the standing orders, were introduced without the receiver knowing who had sent the money, as you may not be aware many riders receive money, from punters, usually known to them but this system, has proven to be very effective, but if ever you found out about the scheme, and its implications, to honesty, the riders would more then likely be warned off, this therefore was the blackmailing opportunity that was created, that the jockeys found they could not escape.

Who would challenge, vigorously an amount paid into his account, monthly and those who did through there advisers found it was from the Cayman islands, with no document to prove what account it had come from,
In the last 12 months, 39 Jockeys have been riding to instructions, and 30 refused to be coerced into doing so. as for those who refused to play ball. they were threatened, with the information, being sent to News papers or even this Club, not to be to sensational I believe that at least 3 riders have been murdered. one my father also a jockey, William Tindle snr.
There full names of the jockeys involved and the stables they rode for, is included. in schedule 2.

Any further evidence you may require do not hesitate to telephone or write to me in due coarse.

I remain yours faithfully

William Tindle.jnr.

“Well said Hartington”
I agree this is a letter from a crack pot…

A copy of the letter was also sent to Club members, and the security adviser who was called to his office.. Urgently.

Not one person on the committee believed the letter was genuine, and was indeed some sort of crank but there was a process that had to be carried out.

Fortunately for racing, the security division were not so, gullible with those who had been reared, choking on massive silver ladles

The Jockey Clubs, power to ignore the mail on the grounds that it would be bad publicity, for the industry was taken out of there hands, when the following morning a 2 inch Headline, spread from side to side of the Sporting Life page one.

“39 Top Riders in Giant Gambling Scam,”
When William saw the headlines, he gulped before answering his front door,
There outside was 5 Newspaper reporters and 1 Photographer.

If this is what the Jockey Club called secretive, then how on earth did we win the war. for 75% of the Club were sons of WW2 hero.s.

Slamming the door to, without a word William demanded from the safety of his kitchen window that they should all leave his premises. at once..

In for a penny in for a £1. William showed massive grit and determination, the same that his grandfather had shown in his day, and the type that caused his father death.
Escaping round the back of his mock farm house, he drove his car, into the center of London, he had a meeting with the Crown Prosecution Service,

The private prosecution is a prosecution started by a private individual who is not acting on behalf of the police or any other prosecuting authority or body which conducts prosecutions.

The right to bring private prosecutions is preserved by section 6(1) Prosecution of Offences Act, 1985 (Archbold 1 - 332). There are, however, some controls:

the DPP has power under section 6(2) Prosecution of Offences Act 1985 to take over private prosecutions;
in some cases, the private prosecutor must seek the consent of the Attorney General or of the DPP before the commencement of proceedings.
In principle, there is nothing wrong in allowing a private prosecution to run its course through to verdict and, in appropriate cases, sentence. The fact that a private prosecution succeeds is not an indication that the case should have been prosecuted by the CPS. Parliament has specifically allowed for this possibility by the way section 6 is constructed: there is no requirement for the CPS to take over a private prosecution.
The CPS has completed a year long project to revise and improve the accessibility of our Legal Guidance and we hope that you will welcome the changes.

Within a few minutes the CPS offered William a printed reply.
Legal Guidance is core to the decision making of the CPS and in making the guidance publicly available, we underline our commitment to open and transparent decision making. We will strive to keep apace of changes in the law and procedure and will regularly update Legal Guidance.

For the next three months, William was locked away in his home, refusing to answer the telephone,
The police at Scotland yard, had offered him advice
Threats to Life, Serious Injury & Property
This policy aims to ensure that all threats to people and property that the Force becomes aware of are properly considered and that all threats, particularly threats to life, receive an appropriate police response.

The problem was that all sections of authority, did not know what to do first.
It was Micheal ????? QC, who sent him on a river boat along the River Seven,
Armed only with a pike rod, and lure. to keep himself from getting bored.

Still the inquiry, began to tread water, it was a theft, from the CPS offices, of a wooden instrument, that had been lodged by William with the legal authority, that forced William to agree that his attempt to find his father murderer had been lii-thought out.

But it was the fire, and destruction, at his grandfathers home, that caused the 21 year old to bolt. were to, I am not prepared to say.
