Extend Forecast

Pools To Encourage Race Interest

Says RICHARD BAERLEIN

One of the most popular forms of betting among small backers is undoubtedly the forecast pool, especially when there are seven, tight or nine runners.

This is a comparatively recent innovation and with soven, eight or nine rumers the dividend is payable in either order provided the first two horses have been named.

ON WATCH

Once a dividend of this nature had been announced the public would be on the watch for further dividends of this calibre and it would extend the interest in racing among the stay-at- home backers. These dividends would receive the same sort of publicity as the football pools.

SURPRISING IF

MANCHESTER UNITED WITHDRAW FROM THE EUROPA CUP

Says W. CAPEL KIRBY

It would not surprise me if Manchester United eventually withdraw from the Europa Cup, providing, of course, they survive the early stages of this home- and-away competition between Europe's champion clubs.

If the Busby boys are going strong in the Cup and League I am assured nothing will be allowed to prejudice their chances of retaining the League title or reaching Wembley. In other words, my prediction of their withdrawal from the Europa Cup means I fancy them for the Cup and League double.
