    (iii) only to be applied to courses whose names include more than three vowels,

    (iv) all bets to be cancelled if John McCririck appears pre-race.
    I thought we agreed you wouldn't publish my strategy.

    Here here! Equality for infrared camera users, I say!

    Can we please stop denigrating this section of society, for they have feelings, too!

    I think your head must have got in the way and its fried your brain. Less of the goggles, more of the medication.

    I studied this stuff a long time ago and it is one of my "edges". Not only have I adapted my TV to emit infra red, so that I can tell how fit the horses are, but by flicking a switch, I can turn my TV into a microwave and heat my steak pie without having to go to the kitchen.

    Now, where did I put my goggles ?

    Sounds like a great concept posted by the OP. Shame this forum could only see fit to respond in such a trite way.

    Not knowing exactly how FLIR works, I doubt infrared wavelengths are carried within the TV signal. Shame as the concept is ingenious.

    So, you arrive at Exeter racecourse and the lurvely lady who takes your admission fee says,

    " 'ere, is that thermal imaging equipment in your pocket, or are ya just pleased to see me!?"

    Thinking on your feet, a response of,

    "ooh err missus, my equipment only looks for the hot-spots."



    ... Is retorted.

    "Oh, I see, I know your type. You wanna strike it lucky, don't ya?"

    Said the voluptuous, leopard skin legging wearing, tanorexic cashier, whilst smoking a Woodbine.



    With some thought, she added through her nasal voice which had taken a battering from many late night dogging sessions ...

    "It never works out you know ... they all think they're on to a winner with equipment such as yours."

    With that, she points to a poster of the latest TV series, soon to numb the soul of the nation ...

    Maybe TG can code something for the handset?

    That is one solution ...

    I did wonder if the bloke could watch Channel 4 racing and point his thermal imaging camera at the telly, from the comfort of his armchair ...
