Inspector Maguire is out on a case of suspected deception, in which an unknown, brand new horse has romped home to win a race, leaving many out of pocket.
It's one of those episodes that I thought was well made, well produced and well acted, but where I simply didn't care much for the actual story itself. Perhaps those with an interest in betting and race horses will perhaps enjoy a little more.
What I found hard, was that we didn't get to see any victims, so empathising was quite hard, it just didn't really register as much of a crime. I found it a little bit slow to watch, but it certainly looked good.
Daisy May, whoever heard of a Racing horse called Daisy May, I kept picturing some kind of seaside old nag.
Jane Hylton was pretty good as Ruth Harrison, a good actress I've seen several times before, but the real enjoyment came from seeing Irene Handl, if only she'd been the main focus, it may have been a whole lot more interesting.
5/10.
