Bet To Win
TV's wizard of Odds tells all in a remarkable DVD about how to win. He tells you the best you must have and more importantly the bests not to have and after 30 years in the game, who knows more than 'The Belly from the Telly'?! Sometimes it's fun then sad as TV's Robert Cooper asks Gary about how he lost over a million pounds on one race! Yes, this DVD tells the truth but it's a must buy if you have the occasional flutter. You won't get this knowledge anywhere else other than this hour long DVD. If Gary could educate ten per cent of the punters to beat the bookies he'll be happy and believe me, after watching this DVD you'll be on your way. So in Gary's own words ...BE LUCKY!

Horses
What might it be like to be a horse? Not just any horse, but a top-end racehorse in Ireland? This is the question Horses explores, following three promising, charismatic horses over the course of one rather difficult racing year, bringing us into their world and revealing their distinct individual characters. Beautiful, unusual, and highly entertaining, the film combines the drama of a sports movie with the exploration of an ancient human obsession, offering a subtle critique of humanity's quirks on the side.
