Alas, my a/c was not up & running for today. I have been a regular racegoer for around 25 years (showing my age there) but I fear I may have been to my last race meeting. I sat in front of the computer today, back & forth between IAS & Betfair, recording dummy bets, (laying of course)& have never seen better value. You could have easily layed Northerly today at $1.25 & within 5 minutes freely backed it back at $1.33, that sort of value is too good to pass up. About 20 years ago I read an article in Racetrack Magazine about racing in the future. It stated that not only would there be night racing, but, there would be nobody at the track, as all the punters would be at their personal computers betting between each other. At the time I scoffed at the thought of not being at the track, however the future is now here. My real concern now is what measures our mealy mouthed politicians will take to ruin this betting revolution.
