1ZB Tipped The Winners
Most racecourse punters have met or heard about the man who dreamed the winner of the big trace, or the man who Has a System. Unfortunately these dreams seldom come true and the systems seldom work. But listeners to 1ZB are beginning to suspect that the station’s sports commentator, Bill Meredith, has some such system up his sleeve, for lately his racing tips haye been uncannily accurate. Here is his record tor Labour Day week-end: For the Saturday’s Auckland Trots, six winners, five seconds and a third; on Monday, seven winners out of a possible eight, with five seconds and a third. There would have been an eighth winner on the Monday, but the horse he had tipped fell when in a winning position. Bill Meredith disclaims systems and supernatural advice, however. "Its just a matter of studying form," he says.
