Tipster Tony Stafford takes an informed look at the world of horse racing, drawing on a lifetime of experience to offer practical advice about how to get the most from the sport, whether at home or the race track. He explains how to evaluate the form, what to look for in the paddock, which courses offer the best facilities, and where to look for value bets. The book includes many anecdotes about the colourful characters in racing from trainers and jockeys, to punters, stewards and bookmakers. The author recalls many of the great races he has witnessed and ranks his own equine hall of fame.
