OK, so any half decent shopkeeper [or maths teacher for that matter] should be a punting marvel !

Punting has never been about maths [any idiot can use a calculator]. Maths is involved sure, but so is breathing air. All the maths ability in the world won't tell you who is going to win the next race. If there was a maths formula for winning on the punt, everyone would have it by now and there'd be no punting industry.
