About Neil

Swansea born and bred, Neil made the trip up North via London to join the totesport team in Wigan in 2004. Now with a young family, sporting prowess takes a back seat but he's a keen golfer who's getting closer to his ambition of single figure handicapper status. A self-confessed data monkey, Neil always looks for trends and any analytical edge he can get to support his betting, and as well as the Racing he's partial to the odd investment on the weekends Golf, Rugby Union and US Sports.
