99% of punters would be behind in my humble opinion including me(yes i know its hard to believe) I havent taken a poll to back up my assumption but i dont think i would be far off the mark. as an aside some of the code punters use gives an indication of how they are travelling. for an example

just backed the favourite. MEANS . haven't got a clue so followed the herd.

just took a quinella. MEANS . i'm down to my last 50 cents.

crap fields i wont have a bet today .MEANS . i'm stony broke.

you got the quadie good on ya . means . you prick.

got a tip cant lose .MEANS . the cleaner at work touted him a horse.

just having a breather from the punt got to much on . MEANS. falling behind in the house payments.

cheers mystic
