Sean Bartholomew
 

Anyone see his video interview?

I've even got the high rollers taking notice it seems ;)

Some very interesting comments, especially his art of arbing being both punter and bookmaker, which I suspect is why he is going back to bookmaking enterprises as well.

If a bookmaker knows that big bets are coming infor a certain horse early in the morning, he can back it heavily as a punter elsewhere and lay it at anything below. Having the knowledge from heavy punting clients in advance puts him at a distinct trading advantage.

I didn't agree with his Betfair comments at all, but then again it was in his own best interests to make those claims.

He certainly cleaned himself up well, he's looking pretty sharp these days.

I thought it was an incredibly candid interview, but the interviewer certainly dropped the ball along the way. A big punter like that so open to discussing things and his questions were very closed and hesitant.

The body language was something to tell a tale though wasn't it, the wry look at the cameraman revealed a multitude ;)

CP is there a link to that somewhere?

He's backed Heavenly Glow for $100k the win at $2.70

Useless interviewer, looked disinterested most of the time, and too busy looking at the next question instead of listening to the replies and going from there.

Where did you read that Crash? (Welcome back Kotter :))

Ta Wun.

Local sport's radio here in Vic. They were talking to him on the phone.

The interviewer is Craig Tompson the randwick clocker ... he use to work at our local pub in the bottle shop when he was training to be a clocker ...he hasnt changed 1 bit ... we use to call him Lurch at the time

Im sure Sean will be having a saver bet or 2 on other horses if he can get the right price ..he normally does

- I watched some of today's Rosehill preview on the same site - pretty painful stuff.

- Thanks Crash.

p.s. just watching Sky - someone has absolutely murdered the national anthem. They should be barred from all these personal interpretations
