RIP MAGIC LIPS 🙏

Hearing the sad news that Matthew Lips has passed away , may he RIP

I just heard about the passing of Matthew Lipman this morning.

This is very sad news as Magic was a very knowledgeable racing man.
If you follow his hilarious face book page on album covers, he had a great sense of humour

RIP MATTHEW 🙏

RIP, was a huge fan and bought the Sport Post just to read his write-ups

I remember somewhere in the early 90's there was a horse called Western Telex ,this horse had a bad habit of losing between 5 to 10 lengths at the start. On a certain day Mr James Goodman was interviewing Mr Mathew Lips on Telly Track and Mathew banked Western Telex in the first leg of the pic6 at Clairwood Park .I remember James Goodman saying ," banker what?? bye bye pic6" .For some reason I gave Mathew the benefit of doubt .The race was run and the horse lost about 8 lengths at the start ,finished off like a train and won! That's my best memory I have of Mathew Lips, May his Soul rest in peace and strength to his family and friends during this time.

RIP Lips

One of my go to men in racing, a legendary tipster and then NHA employee

An incredible knowledge and recollection of horse racing , particularly in Zim and SA . Was an awkward chap who made his name at Hollywood back in the day.

RIP

Rest In Peace Mr Lipman. You had a wealth of knowledge in the racing world.

Apparently he never had a bet on horses although he was an analyst early on.

I remember Matthew Lips with a wild head of hair. I do not recognise him in that photo above.
