“This is not a gut reaction, it’s based on an assessment of the marketplace,” he said. “William Hill is 80 years old. This is not a fly-by-night brand.”

Why not just retire?

Bit of a larf on a Sunday morning...

Forget picking winners with a pin

Related story; Alan Windross died on Boxing Day - here is an brief article on his legacy i.e. what he did for the TAB over the 90s.


Cheers LG

Previous article a little light on substance - here is a better one (written 6 months before Allen passed).

" Apart from his despair with the lack of market research Allen is concerned that most punters achieve their selections by examining mainly for positives and ignoring negatives. "They are looking more to why a horse will win rather than why it won't. Better perhaps to adopt the lead character, Jay Trotter, approach in the classic punting movie: Let it Ride. Jay asks his acquaintances one by one for a selection and then crosses that one out of his race book until only one horse remains. It becomes Jay's selection. At least Jay was conducting some research."

PS Nice to see someone celebrated before they hike on up to the big racetrack?
