    Glenn

    I emailed the guts of your excellent post to Get On (ATR) for comment on the show and despite Tony Ennis saying he’d got through all the emails it was never mentioned. Says it all really.

    Anybody have an sutiable email for RUK, the one on their website is a bit generic?

    A very good post Glenn, I’ll email the guts of it to ATR and RUK tomorrow, hopefully it will get some air time.  Making the public aware of whats going on is the only way forward.

    How the levy was spent in 05/06

    £’000  <br>TOTAL 103,507 <br>Prize Money 64,019 62%<br>Integrity Services 18,214 18%<br>Other racecourse expenditure 9,614 9%<br>Improvement of Breeds 3,952 4%<br>Veterinary 3,178 3%<br>Training 874 1%<br>Others (161) 1%<br>Administration 3,606 3%<br>Bookmakers’ Committee 211 <1%

    That’s 10% of their profits the other 900 million plus went into their pockets and that wasn’t enough for them so they decided from Nov 1st last year to rip the SP punter off to increasingly fraudulent levels.

    How about a Times article Lydia?

    another 2% per runner bookie benefit in the "lucky last" at Windsor

    have to agree with glenn regarding the exchange price manipulation. The 100% overround makes it bombproof

    The reason I ask was the tidal wave of money on BF in the last 5 minutes for Fever at Nottingham yesterday evening.  Colossal sums involved!

    The poll I used in 2004 was accurate to within a half percent for both candidates.

    I agree with all the opinions raised in that article you pasted the link to.  All of that was equally true before 2004 as well but Bush still got reelected.

    Whatever your opinion the fact is that Edwards hasnt got a hope this time around either.

    To understand whats going on in the country you need to read reliable opinion polls.  The polls I’m using were 95% accurate in 2004 and 2006.  Edwards hasnt got a breeze.

    Its between Clinton and Obama for the nomination. Clinton is the favourite amongst Democrats at the moment but Obama will do better with voters in a head to head with Giuliani which may well get him the nomination.  He’s closing on Clinton all the time, is very charasmatic which will be of enormous assistance to him when campaigning proper starts. Dont see how Edwards even comes into it, he’s only at 15% for the nomination.

    Obama at 3.7 is the value.

    Now back to the horses.
