Toby

Toby - the first part of a Trilogy - has been described by several reviewers as a cross between a sexually explicit Jilly Cooper and Dick Frances:
Toby leaves the Army after a 5 year National Service short service commission, after 3 years in 3 Para, where he saw active service during the Suez Crisis and where he was decorated with a MC (Military Cross) for Gallantry.
On leaving the army he finds he has very little money apart from a small legacy from his late father. He decides to travel to North Yorkshire with an old Army pal. We follow his explicit sexual progress as he builds a new life. Through hot horse racing tips from his old Army pal Liam, and taking every opportunity he starts to amass a fortune only to suffer a life-changing blow.
