He then pays for a ringer (a champion horse running under another lesser horse's colours) to be entered into a race at a race track and at the last moments rings around other turf accountants businesses to lay off imaginary bets whilst he has arranged for the phone lines to the race course to be 'out of order' thereby stopping those bookies taking the lay off bets from lowering the betting price on the ringer running at the race course. The Shadow Squad are suspicious of what has happened and set out to investigate the race betting but find that the gang have covered their tracks too well but they have a chance to expose the next race fixing attempt by the ringer gang and thereby bring down the big boss hiding behind the veil of respectability.
