An annoying bloke from work obviously doesn’t punt much, because he’s getting all worked up about making about 80 cents off a very safe bet.
“You put anything on Winx, mate?” asks Dion – an annoying bloke who often tries to talk about blokey stuff.

“But she came good in the last 400m”

“Yeah. Was at the pub with a few mates and saw Winx on the screen”
“So I put a bit on her” he said.
“It is one of the fastest last 600m sectionals they have on record at Randwick apparently – if not the fastest – but the wind behind certainly played its role”
