Dennis, Barry - shy and retiring bookmaker often featured on Channel 4 racing.
A loan of £250,000 from prominent owner David Johnson 10 years ago enabled Dennis to move from the back rows of the ring to the front rows and in 2004 his turnover peaked at £15m per annum betting at 40 different tracks. |

Running Stag - tough 8f-10f horse trained by Philip Mitchell in the late 1990s.
Enterprisingly campaigned to win £1m+ in prize money collected in six different countries between 1996 and 2000. Best effort probably in defeat - a ½l second in the £1.6m G1 Hong Kong Cup in 1999. |
