    "WINNERS" - I.T.V. DOCUMENTARY

    A facinating in depth study of the factors required to be at the very peak of professional betting. The documentary team spent three days with Steve to bring viewers an insight into what is required to be a winner in one of the most demanding professions imaginable.

     

    RADIO 5 LIVE FEATURE

    The One Show, The Apprentice and Match Of The Day 2 presenter, Adrian Chiles spends a day with Steve at the races armed with £100 of his own cash. We follow Adrian's humourous attempt to learn professional betting.

    Steve has just one bet on the day and advises Adrian to put his entire £100 on the horse, which he very nervously does having only ever risked a maximum of £10 on any bet in the past.

    Locked in a dramatic battle to the winning post the horse wins at 3/1 and the exultant delight of the presenter is infectious as he collects his biggest ever win from the bookmaker.
