Where you are from & what do you do?
I am from North London, Enfield to be exact. Lived here all my life. Unfortunately it has gone down hill since i was born, an influx of foreigners hasn't left it very special. Work wise i concentrate on backing and laying on betfair, speciality being national hunt horse racing in GB.

I am a regular gym goer, i also play both football and rugby. i enjoy the rare poker tournament as well. i also enjoy writing song lyrics with a close friend. 

What’s your favourite time of day / year?
Not really a morning person as i tend to stay up late, it has to be the summer.

Stand out memory moments are always hard to answer, take one day at a time and see how it goes is my attitude.

To own a horse that wins the Cheltenham gold cup, dream on...
