I get bad vibes from this one and I hope I'm wrong. When it dies does it coast to a stop or does it stop abruptly? Does the starter even try or make any noise? As a worst case scenario the pistons could be seizing up. After it cools the pistons shrink some and unstick. I hope this is not the case but I have seen it happen.
Now, on to a less dramatic scenario. Does it have mag or distributor? If it's a distributor the big hot wire from the battery to the starter switch could have an iffy connection that breaks when it gets hot and if the juice for the ignition comes from that connection the distributor will lose it's power. Now you have a tractor that dies and the starter is dead. It could be at the starter or the battery. If it's a mag the probable only way for these two events to happen is if the coil in the mag gives out and the starter has a heat or vibration ralated bad connection.
