Along the way, he has become one of the best known and best liked characters in British racing. Larger than life, Nevison told his tale in the widely acclaimed A Bloody Good Winner.

It was a summer riddled with agony and ecstasy, with narrow successes and narrower, desperate defeats. Nevison explains exactly how he goes about beating fixed odds-bookmakers - a field of continued success - and how he has tried to scoop the tote's big pools.
