Everyone. And I do mean everyone in the industry, in the punting community, is telling the gambling commission they have got it fundamentally wrong
As well as a number of experienced and influential lawyers in the industry say it is futile
But the gambling commission presses on? What personal ambition drives such folly?
This is brilliant, folks. A superb advert for our sport for newcomers. A fun approach but the key message? Not the alcohol, not the dressing up or the socialising. It's all about the racegoing experience and the horse. This imho is the way newcomers should approach their day.
Tweets like this are the downside of doing the job I love. Wake up to this rubbish regularly.
โCouldnโt tip a wheelbarrowโ - that cliched phrase. 3 winners from my last 6 on โTipping Tomโ and in overall profit after 9 months covering the hardest races. Not to mention US (6 winners from last 9 and a huge 3-year ROI) + Saudi stats.
โSounds like a robotโ - apparently being fluent and informative is bad now. People prefer blithering idiots. There are enough of them.
โWasted Christmas Day studyingโ - In the first 20 seconds of this video, I clearly state I didnโt do any on Xmas day, not that it even matters. Doesnโt even listen.
Crazy.
It is @betway_sa Summer Cup weekend and the @centenaryclub has a feature runner with Future Variety who will be taking his place in the New Turf Carriers Merchants Gr3, he will be making his way from our KwaZulu Natal base this weekend and will have Sean Veale aboard.

๐ DARING ACT โ tough, game, and a fitting winner of todayโs final race!
On Tuesday my daughter watched @jamieleemelham win the Melbourne Cup and asked straight away if she could learn to ride.
And this is todayโฆ
Thatโs the power of these moments to leave a legacy long after the race day.
10 years ago, Jonny Madderson made a short film about a 12-year-old boy from Donegal with big dreams of being a champion jockey.
Yesterday, at the age of just 22, Dylan Browne McMonagle realised that dream when crowned Champion Jockey of Ireland. Heโs just getting started. ๐
๐ฅ RACE 4 โ TURFFONTEIN
THUNEE PLAYA ๐ turned on the power in the home straight โ storming through to grab victory in eye-catching fashion!
