Who Could It Be?
 

Who is the "tipster" who has been given the moniker: "William H. Macy?"
Hint: William H. Macy starred in a movie about gambling and played the part of a "Jonah" or "mock" who was employed by the casino boss to stand next to winning punters and subsequently destroyed their run of luck and the house recouped all it's losses.
Anyone seen the movie and have any suggestions regarding the identity of our "mystery tipster?"
To my knowledge he is not a current contributor to this forum.
All contributions/ guesses welcome.
All in good fun.

William H Macy also played the comedic racetrack authority who had a show called "clockers corner" in the movie Seabiscuit. He would go about the track snooping for scoops for his show in his "breaking news" segment.

I think it could be a tipster who is also a clocker.

MY GUESS?
 

Its not that **** bookie who writes for the DAILY TELEGRAPH is it?.

darky.

movie called "the cooler".

William H. Macy certainly bats well above his average there! anyone who has seen it will know the tight blond i refer to. hehe.

As to my guess who the cooler is ........ No idea.

This same "tipster" has been alleged to be on retainer from major trainers NOT to tip their horses.

Real Deal-that's right, the movie is "The Cooler."
darky-no, it's not him.
blacksnake-yeah, I heard that too-you're getting close!
You must admit this bloke is the most consistent tipster we have seen for a while-notice that I said "consistent" not "most successful!"
Hint: This bloke is certainly in "The Know."
More thoughts/guesses welcome.

Cheers.

I know of one mad gambling racing journo who always gets the good oil but always puts the winners as second or third pick with only the shorties on top.

Hint: conducted tours to the Japan Cup ;)

CP- No, I dont think it's him although I am trying to remember who that tour host was...any more hints?
I'll give you another hint for my entity- he is a "megastar" in Sydney radio.

Cheers.

Valvoline, you know what I mean ?

No Stix, sorry mate....I meant another super/mega/star.
As I said he is the most consistent tipster in the media-lately, none of his tips get up!

Cheers.
