Or the opposite, scruffy layabouts putting 50p on an each way in a crummy shop in a backstreet somewhere and then almost having a heart attack screaming at the TV when they lost their FITY THOUS.... erm, fifty pence.

It's the scruffy layabouts that ARE betting £100+ per race that are a real headscratcher . Well I mean not that much of a headscratcher but... "Officially" a headscratcher. "Where does he get his money? Oh I have no idea, he certainly isn't selling mountains of street vallium, officer."
