"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
Well known T.V. 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.
