This is why I don't bet on horse races because I'd probably lose the family 
home, but my money is definitely on AW.  Too often has JKR emphasized his lowly 
ministry position and his lack of money.  What greater slap in the face to 
Percy could there be than the father he rejected becoming MoM.

The clincher is that JKR always has Hermione being right except when excited 
and Ron always being wrong except when joking.  Ron joked about Gryffindor 
having as much chance of wining the Quidditch cup as his dad becoming MoM.  
Gryffindor won and so will the long shot Weasley.

I'm wondering if the pompous git will ever give his family and Harry a proper 
apology.  I doubt if he knows how to say, I'm sorry or I was wrong.
