Paul Harrison

Developing a love for racing at an early age, Paul’s enthusiasm for sports and betting led him to Salford University, where he earned a Bachelor's degree in Business Economics with a focus on Gambling Studies. After spending a decade working for a top bookmaker, Paul decided to strike out on his own and chase his dream career as a freelance writer.

Over three decades after his first introduction to the Sport of Kings, his obsession with all things racing-related remains undimmed. When not pouring over the racing form, you can find Paul walking his beloved dog or riding the rollercoaster of life as a Newcastle United fan.

Roger Thomas

Hailing from the vibrant city of Liverpool, Roger Thomas brings two decades of experience as a sports blogger, specializing in the thrilling world of horse racing betting. Drawing inspiration from his grandfather’s days at Aintree Racecourse, Roger's insights extend far beyond just the racetrack. He perfectly combines race-related wisdom with the rich traditions of his family, providing readers with unique perspectives. Beyond his work, Roger is a devoted husband and father of two, embodying a true testament to intertwining professional passion with personal commitment.

Jack Heaton

From a lineage of racehorse breeders, Jack Heaton is more than just a connoisseur of horse racing – it's in his blood. Having started as a promising jockey, a back injury pivoted his path, but not his passion.

Today, he generously lends his expertise to paddock-punter.co.uk, guiding readers through the intricate details of horse racing. Outside of his professional pursuits, Jack is a dedicated father to his two beloved children, Ally and Abby.
