Ooh, now - maybe the time has come around for my own big Dick Francis reread? I have all the reservations you cite, and more besides - but where he's good, he's very very good. Also, his wife Mary was a Brenchley, which made him some kind of a cousin of mine. I used to call him Cousin Dick.
Oh, and if you haven't read the "collaborations" wih his son Felix? Keep it that way.
