$200 @ 1.50 and they have to think about it ???? What has the world come to. There were bets 20 times bigger than that 30 years ago on the country circuit. The toothless tiger that is the Racing Licensee Board needs a good kick up the you know where. This case alone is enough for a show cause notice.

Yes Stugouts. When I worked for the Gold Coast Turf Club, he was a rails bookmaker, I don't know whether he still does. The online op is based in Tweed Heads.

Said it before and perhaps one last time. The current model which is plugged to saturation point to gen y z etc is running a double edged sword i.e. if you are looking to capture new clients thru various media channels including online, tv etc and you are very visible as a result, then it only takes one or two stories - bits of evidence which are contrary to the message peddled, before the 'real message' spreads and does so quickly.. people talk and 'walk' as a result. Quickly!

Therein lies the remedy if you get my drift?

You might be surprised how even the large entities can turn and crumble on a single sentence. A good (bad?) example might be ratners in the UK. Different game and scenario but an example of how quickly things can change. These days, there is better management of the messages put out in the market place(and fire fighting if things go wrong) I think because their are many more channels, news spreads a hell of a lot quicker, more competition, more at stake etc. The elephants in the room - market can still stumble, however!

Just my thoughts - musings on a pleasant friday evening.

Cheers LG

Question

John Singleton has backed his mare Dear Demi to win $1 million in the Melbourne Cup with a NSW-based betting operation.
TopSport.com.au's head Lloyd Merlehan has a long history of laying big bets from Singleton. He was happy to accept the challenge about the mare, which ran third in the Caulfield Cup.
“It is not the silliest racing bet Singo has had with me,” Merlehan said. “She ran a good race in the Caulfield Cup and when he rang up and asked to back her to win a million I was happy to take him on.
