Enemy #1

Wildebeest look very cool munching on their daily diet when they don’t perceive any obvious threat. When the lions arrive it’s really only a question of how quickly they can run away, although the most dangerous lions will often succeed in making a kill. Sometimes, when a pack of lions are particularly well organised, they will make repeated kills over a sustained period!

I’m reading Patrick Veitch book at the moment and the above is the opening thought provoking paragraph.

So far there are no juicy bits in respect punting tips. However within the first few pages he leaves you in no doubt that it requires an incredible amount of work allied with long hours to keep ahead of us mugs and the bookmakers.

Update
