"Sir Ron Brierley's Guinness Peat Group and Alex Waislitz's Thorney Holdings last night reminded the Tattersall's board that they might yet play some role in the outcome of the gaming and lotteries group's planned merger with UniTAB..........held more than 6% of TTS, probably making them the largest shareholders .........".

Already a high net worth individual, Sir Ron Brierley has funds in AGL that have been significantly boosted by the Alinta bid.

Alex is the son-in-law of Richard Pratt (Visy Industries), a proven investor who manage the Pratt family investments. Together, they can be formidable if they choose. Adding Geoff Wilson (the funds manager) into Rattoon Holdings Ltd have increased the resources. Assisting Sir Ron Brierley is Gary Weiss, his long time lieutenant, who is of considerable calibre.

This game might get more interesting within a matter of weeks.
