To be perfectly honest, PJ, it's not one I would have recommended.

I find books about punters - and Jockeys and Trainers for that matter - to be generally pretty tedious, and it was a really a last-shot-deal, to see if this one by Veitch was any better (it wasn't). I downloaded Sure Thing (about Barney Curley's coup from a few years back) at the same time, and didn't actually finish it. It's basically why I won't bother with the Harry Findlay book either.

Of the ones I listed earlier, All Out War and Trump Revealed are by some way the best/most informative/illuminating.
