Biggest of the big gamblers Gary has been punter racecourse bookmaker & in recent years television pundit heading BBC coverage of the betting ring. But there are two sides to Gary Wiltshire. One shows the genial wise-cracking personality revelling in every angle of the betting business the poor boy made good with racehorses running in his colours & a personalised number-plate on his Mercedes.
