Before the days of self correction I would be just like everyone else sitting in the betting shop, Waiting for the last race to start, I’m talking about 15-20 years ago, I just done my wages, even backed the dogs, So this last race is going to be my saviour, The thought of going home to the wife petrifies me, What am I going to tell her, The bills need paying what on earth am I going to do? I look at Sandra behind the till for some guidance; She just gives me her usual –Bloody idiot look but puts on a false smile. The old me would have slapped everything I had in pocket on Beauty, Just because Nina is in the saddle, and just because it’s the hot fav, My confidence is so low that I daren’t look beyond the fav, The new me would not touch this horse with a barge pole, I would take a good look at the breeding and see that softer ground and longer distance would suite Beauty, I would see that BEHRAMA looks good value, only 2 runs to date both on soft.Today races on Gd ground for the very first time, Lets see if the new me is right or the old me, |
I have the rare distinction and pleasure of being a leader in the field of education. Though the subject I have specialised in might not be included in the curriculum at Oxford or Cambridge. Picking winners or losers in racing is very much like trying to buy the right investment securities, The element of luck and chance occasionally upsets the best and soundest of calculations,
