Good value book with some good ideas. May lack focus and structure.
David Duncan focuses on systems and betting rules in his approach to making a profit backing horses on the turf. There's some interesting ideas in this book. As a reader I felt free to pick and choose between approaches I liked and other methods I wasn't really interested in. The first five chapters approach horse racing from a 'value betting' angle. If you go in for a lot of permutation bets or exotic multiples there's a lot of info here. I didn't have much interest in this part of the book but my attention picked up after that. Chapter Six - Selection Procedures has some interesting stats re the success rates of the first two in the betting for different types of races. Chapter 7 - Racing Systems opens with some strange methods for making a profit year in, year out betting solely on the classics with a courageous (some might say foolhardy) staking plan. From here, Duncan moves to other systems, many which no longer turn a profit but they contain interesting angles and are worth a read. The Twelve Golden Rules of Successful Betting seem fair enough, if pretty obvious and often quoted elsewhere. Ten Golden Rules for Gambling on the Betting Exchanges is funny. 'The typical racing enthusiast must proceed with the utmost caution,' writes Duncan. This short chapter remains a good read - it got me thinking a bit about the nature of bookmaking and laying. So there's a lot here. Its not, for me, a well organised book. I would have preferred it to open with selection procedures and draw to a close with discussion of staking plans and multiple bets but each to his or her own. Compared to other books I have found David Duncan's texts to be some of the cheaper on the market. This was okay. Its good to read around - I would encourage racing enthusiasts to do so. Nick Mordin's 'Betting For A Living' is a good guide for beginners, I think, though its not as easy a read as this book. Peter Braddock's 'Horse Racing: Selection and Betting' would be a suitable alternative, though there are many. 'Winning Horse Racing Formulae' shouldn't be written off. There's lessons within that I, for one, have long failed to take on board. Clues, maybe. It is helpful to know that 80% of NON-handicap hurdles and chases are won by the first two horses in the betting. It could change my betting, focusing upon this fact.

A very functional, surprisingly powerful and useful phone.
Relatively poor and quite tech-savvy, I was looking to move from a small standard Nokia handset to a smart phone, by which I mean something relatively capable of browsing the internet, downloading apps etc. I bought a second hand Samsung Galaxy Ace GT-S5830. It had seen quite a lot of use already. Small chips to the casing made the price affordable (£61 with p&p - a small bargain, I think). I purchased the following accessories: A protective case or cover (under £3 - it looks nice). A 16 GB Micro SD card (under £10 - it makes sense getting one of these; great for loading music up). A USB to phone adapter (under £2 - you may already have one issued with the phone). A brand new battery (under £10 - my battery seemed to be running out quick). A magazine 'Android For Beginners' (under £10 - I recommend this guide; a great introduction to working with your new phone). Battery Use - Smart phone users tend to complain about battery use. My major loss of power seemed to come from the phone looking for an internet source so scanning very weak Wi-Fi connections or using the (poor in this area) Vodafone 3G network. It's a very good idea to understand the options for internet connection available to you and then stick with a decent connection or go without. Rapid loss of battery charge comes more than anything from trying to connect to weak networks (be they 3G, Wi-Fi, GPS or Bluetooth). Get securely connected to a network (perhaps Wi-Fi at home) and battery use is much more lenient. This is not a high-end smart phone. Options I considered too were the Nokia Asha 301 and the Blackberry Curve 9320. I was concerned about moving to touchscreen from a phone with keys. After a week of having my new phone I'm still not a huge fan of touchscreen but I'm quite fast at typing. My phone uses the Android 2.3.3 Gingerbread operating system. The Swype facility allows for pretty fast texting and its quite a delight to use. Nice. I've downloaded lots of apps. I have a Sim only contract with Vodafone so I have downloaded a widget from them that (fairly clearly) displays the data I have used since my last billing. Very helpful. The Yahoo! Mail app is really neat and I found the Opera Mini a really useful browser to use. I like the way it works. I was very negative about the phone at first and disturbed by the short battery time. Then I worked out how to use it! The Android OS is nice enough and easy to use. Very simple to navigate. I advise you keep 'Settings' close at hand because of the adjustments you can make to save battery power as mentioned above. There is a pull down screen of Notifications that is pretty good for switching GPS, Bluetooth and Wi-Fi on and off easily. GPS and Bluetooth are other great power-hogs that I don't use. This notifications screen is great when you get a new text and without pressing a button you can read the text as it comes through. I'm not sure if there's a way around it but I had to open a Gmail account (free of course) before being able to effectively get the phone internet-ready. As a new smartphone user what do I think of... Smartphones - Great! Samsung Galaxy Ace GT-S35830 - Pretty nice. It's not really a looker in my opinion but its a very functional, surprisingly powerful and useful phone. Android OS - Good. Easy to use. This review is just a few things I've noticed from using a new phone. I hope you've found some of these scant notes helpful and wish you good luck in your search for a new mobile.
