You read Veitch's autobiography yet Exiledhulladgateshead?

Part way through it at the min but from what I've heard it's absolutely top class right through - could certainly teach Joe Public about getting bets on that's for sure.

Read the extracts in the Post and especially about the Nottingham coup. Will have to get round to getting it and more importantly reading it one day. Dave Nevison's two books are decent but i'm guessing this one is a class above from revues and feedback on various sites.

Yeah it is - the extracts are good, the Exponential gamble is legendary

Forgot the name of the horse but it was the last minute putting on of bets that was impressive. Most gambles the word would have got out in the morning and the price gone before real money could be put on.

He certainly knows what he was doing getting the right bets on on that day.
