I don't think anyone is under the illusion that it's a great money making scheme.My neighbour was a pro jockey who rode over 40 winners in a year.
Ask him what horse to bet on and even he admits that betting is for mugs.
It is if you’ve got the right contacts. A lot of the smaller races are sorted out before the off. Terribly corrupt industry.I don't think anyone is under the illusion that it's a great money making scheme.
Bit of fun tho.
