I haven't had a bet since the new rules came into force .
My betting on horses as dropped quite a bit over the last few years , with the mad watering policy being the main reason . The new whip rules if they stay will be the final straw for me . |

You have to be very careful when placing a bet now, taking into account style of the horses running and also how much the jockey has got to lose by getting banned.
New whip rules are a joke and only pander to the meddling animal rights brigade. |

A few years ago an old gent pointed up at a horse on a bookies screen and said to me "that favorite's a good horse", it was a cartoon race. Read the comments page of a major newspaper everytime a betting/gambling story is run. The world is full of thickos who would be robbed blind if their meagre disposable income wasn't all going to ocean finance. They won't stop betting on horses.
