We are very fortunate to have obtained three copies of @paraderingedge books on paddock watching. Now listeners of our podcast will be aware that we are very fond of Geoffrey Hutson's book 'Watching Racehorses' as at the time it was the only book on paddock watching that applied the angles to data (i.e the misnomer on sweating)
Well thanks to the author Stephen Lang (who by the way goes racing with Geoffrey) has also produced a data related book on paddock analysis and those three copies could be yours. Simply like, retweet and follow us and @paraderingedge and you can win one of those three copies. Good Luck, will keep reposting this and the winners will be announced on the first day of #royalascot

Today, I said goodbye to my world.
After 18 years together of pure happiness and her recent brave battle against cancer.
At 52, all my family & friends have now died & I’m totally alone.
Without horseracing & the love of the thoroughbred, life would have no meaning, this despite as a sport, bookmakers & their many affiliates hate us fans and those in paid jobs in racing look down on us, but unlike casino betting & it’s couple of deaths per year, horseracing keeps thousands of lonely people from suicide by giving them something to look forward to throughout the year, because as you know, the racehorse will always be the stars of the sport.
Please re-tweet so that politicians & non-racing people can understand the importance of horse racing to those of us without a voice.
