I developed an interest in horse racing at nine years old but it was some time before I developed my own handicapping system on the old ZX Spectrum.

Many winners came from this including Arctic Kinsman in the Supreme Novice Hurdle at 50/1 (I got 66/1) and Killone Abbey in the Scottish National at 40/1.

It wasn't long before I had small shares in some horses with Martin Pipe, particularly Hopscotch, Tri Folene and Silver King.

Later on I ran a company called National Hunt Racing Plates of Great Britain and worked on courses all over the south and up to the Midlands. During this time I got to know many trainers and owners and did some private work for David Nicholson, Toby Balding and Lord Cadogan.

I started writing racing articles, mainly "Yesterday's Heroes" for Racing Ahead magazine in their second year, around 20 years ago now.

I have since had small shares in horses with Paul Nichols and Venetia Williams - and currently have shares in one with Gary Moore.
