Riding the Storm (2015)
“He was taking the lift to the ground floor, prior to going home, having steered his wheelchair to the back of the lift. After the embarrassing performance of Hunter’s Moon, he felt he was being deliberately ignored. Nobody wanted to talk to him, not even Dickie Yerbook, the tactless presenter from one of the TV stations that most people detested and tried to avoid. The small amount of publicity just wasn’t worth putting up with the man’s boorish comments and personal remarks, although he himsel...f resembled a sausage bursting out of its skin in his shiny suits. He believed himself to be a great wit and a fine source of knowledge around the track but the truth was that most people didn’t like him well enough to share any inside knowledge. So, when it came to tipping, he had to play it safe, advising people to follow the favourite.
