“I come from a racing<br />

background – all the<br />

members of my family<br />

are really into horse<br />

racing. As long as I can<br />

remember, we’ve spent<br />

our week-ends at a<br />

racecourse somewhere<br />

in the country.<br />

I always loved going<br />

along and seeing all the<br />

horses, but when I was<br />

12, I started to get<br />

interested in placing<br />

bets. At first I used to<br />

give my father a pound<br />

and he’d place the bet<br />

for me, but as I got<br />

older I placed the bets<br />

myself.<br />

Gradually I got more<br />

and more excited,<br />

watching the horses<br />

thunder along the<br />

racecourse towards the<br />

finish. I’d be screaming<br />

like mad if my horse<br />

won.<br />

By the time I was 14<br />

all my pocket money<br />

went on racing. I read<br />

all the racing papers,<br />

trying to pick up tips<br />

and following what my<br />

father did. On my way<br />

home from school I<br />

started going into<br />

bookmakers’s offices,<br />

at least three times a<br />

week.<br />

For 16-year old Jane from Somerset<br />

betting 1)<br />

has become an obsession. Here<br />

she tells how it’s taken over her life…<br />

3<br />

When you are under 18<br />

it is against the law to<br />

place bets. But I’m tall<br />

and I’ve always looked<br />

older than I am,<br />

especially with makeup<br />

on. I’m always<br />

careful to cover up my<br />

school uniform so no<br />

bookmaker 2) has ever<br />

asked questions about<br />

my age.<br />

My biggest win ever<br />

was £ 500 on the Grand<br />

National on a £ 10 bet!<br />

When you lose money<br />

the only thing you can<br />

think about is putting<br />

more money on the<br />

next horse, telling<br />

yourself you’ll get a<br />

big win next time.<br />

During my school<br />

holidays I spent whole<br />

1)<br />

days just gambling .<br />

My friends think I’m<br />

crazy, spending all my<br />

money and time at<br />

racecourses while<br />

they’re out earning<br />

money at Saturday jobs<br />

or meeting to go<br />

shopping in town. But I<br />

just can’t get enough of<br />

it. Horse racing is my<br />

life.<br />

When I’m a bit short of<br />

cash I beg my father to<br />

give me my pocket<br />

money earlier, saying<br />

I’ve got to get<br />

deodorant or something<br />

for school, but I think<br />

he doesn’t believe me<br />

any more.<br />

When I first started<br />

gambling my friends<br />

used to ask me to place<br />

a bet for them too, but<br />

now they say they are<br />

worried about me.<br />

They think I won’t<br />

know when to stop. I<br />

tell them I’ve got it all<br />

under control. I can<br />

always stop any time I<br />

want to… can’t I??<br />

noot 1<br />
