Yet, through all the good times, this Yorkshireman's career was enveloped in controversy which culminated in a dawn raid on his home by the Serious Crime Squad in January 1999. His subsequent arrest for alleged race fixing and a Jockey Club ban made front page news. Later cleared of all charges and reinstated, many questions remain unanswered - until now. This personal account given in Brad's own inimitable style of a controversial and exciting life in racing.
