Synopsis
Published in 2004 in hardback with dustjacket in Great Britain by Hayes Press, 151pp, ISBN 0954860403, this book written by Roy Granville and illustrated by Lezz contains horseracing stories around a character called Baxter, the proprietor of the SureFire Tipping Service and an inveterate punter. His quest for winners knows no bounds because they are the ammunition with which he can achieve his greatest pleasure - the bashing of the bookmakers. Of course the bookmakers are well protected and their firepower far superior but Baxter keeps trying despite the added impediments of Machiavellian trainers and dodgy jocks. Share his successes and disappointments in this amusing book! Contents: A Place to Be Filled; Perfect Vision; The Artful Dodger; The Difference a Day Makes; The Lonely Hearts Wheeze; Diamond Jack; The Purrfect Gift; Talking the Horse; Unsuited by Brighton; Information to Boot; Hymie is a Loser, My Life; The Computer Challenge; Trading in Winners; The Corporate Tipster; The Beverley Maiden
