Strategic Advance

Richard was born in Lytham, a small town on the Ribble estuary in Lancashire. His father was a bookmaker. When Richard left school, he went staight into the family bookmaking business, where he stayed for twenty years. His experience of how gambling could affect people's lives stood him in good stead. So it was always in his mind to write an advice manual on horse racing, to help punters steer clear of the pitfalls of betting and to put them on the road to long-term profit.
