Terry Ramsden – Pro Backer
Another great character of the game. This time a legendary backer.
I enjoyed this watch…
The guy who posted it up stated that it’s not the best quality – on account of it coming from an old VHS cassette (taken from a BBC documentary). But still a great view none the less.
Terry Ramsden was one of “the faces” of the betting ring during the 1980’s worth upwards of £100m… and within a matter of years had been declared bankrupt!
A fearless punter and engaging individual this is well worth a viewing.
Enjoy…
Now in his 70’s and not one seen on racecourses like in days of old, Ramsden is more of a mythical figure to many.
But for those of us who were active back then, he was a colourful character and one who was never shy to court public attention and media interest.
Another of a breed who we seldom see these day. And more’s the pity!
OPINION: The likes of Alec Bird, Phil Bull, Patrick Veitch… Terry Ramsden. Where have all the legendary punters gone?
