David Gately has been involved in racing for over 22 years. He started out as a 17yo using a free tipping email service back in 1999. This passion/hobby became full time work when he launched his own website in 2003 with detailed form for Melbourne and Sydney metropolitan racing.

The website caught the eye of those at Best Bets and David was working part-time with the highly-respected publication from Mid-2007, he was quickly asked to join Best Bets full-time, this work entails producing daily racebooks, video analysis and form comments (for both Best Bets and Winning Post).

David first appeared on TVN in 2008 and has since become a regular on racing’s own channel operating in both Melbourne and Sydney, and, in 2011 became a panelist on TVN’s banner program Racing Review.

David has worked with radio station’s SEN in Melbourne and can still be heard on RadioTab giving detailed racing information and selections. He has owned many racehorses, and like most us of, dreams of the day he has a share in one like Black Caviar.
