UK Horse Racing Betting Frequently asked questions (FAQs)
Some tipping lines have received bad press,and probably deserve it, because they do not deliver what they promise. Make sure you check out the claims of any service you are thinking of joining before you hand over your hard earned cash. There are plenty of sharp practitioners just desperate to take the money and run.
The main problem of being a successful gambler is getting on. Bookmakers are always keen to tell the media of vast wagers they have laid but these are always to losing account holders. When marked as a winning account the bookies will rarely close you down but will restrict the amount they are prepared to lay. Running a racing service allows an income to be made via subscriptions.
Life for punters has never been so good with betting exchanges giving massive value and, even better, allowing the luxury of laying those you think cannot win. We want others, who have less time on their hands, to be able to make money from our hard work. There is no better feeling than spotting a horse that is overpriced, backing it to win, and then seeing it romp home.

Holidays - what happens to the service?
Very rarely I have a day off, or a weeks holiday (I am only human!) If my holiday clashes with your subscription period rest assured I will let you know, and your package will simply roll-over.

Do you back the horses you select for the service yourself?
YES - I never tip anything that I myself would not back.
Back to top
Do you have losing runs?
YES - all punters have them but it's how you cope with that pressure to turn things around. Losing runs are frustrating for everyone and we expect calls from clients when they happen. When we have a losing spell we simply fall back onto long held principles and stick to them. To use a well known phrase - form is temporary but class is permanent. Any service that says they do not have losing runs are talking rubbish - do not believe them! Our strength is our confidence that we will always turn a losing run around.

How many bets do you have every week/month?
On average we will tip two to three horses per day. Unlike other Tipster Services - We will not shower you with bad tips spread over four or five text messages per day! All of our selections are well researched, and offer good value. If there is nothing worth advising on a given day - You will not receive any tips. Its as simple as that!
Back to top
Do you send your clients newsletters?
Yes, occasionally we will e-mail you with the latest Free bet offers. We will show you how to claim free betting vouchers, and then advise you how best to use them.

How much does it cost to join the service?
This depends on what type of service you would like to use. The premium SMS service is £1.50p per tip. Some tips contain two pieces of information. The other prefered method for the more professional punter is subscription. You can see our various subscription packages by CLICKING HERE.

Do you have a staking plan and a bank?
YES - all punters must have a staking plan and bank. Nobody in their right mind would start punting unless they had a bank behind them. Use level stakes on all of our selections. Remember, 3 points per day - 1 point per selection.
