Horse Racing Tips - Old And New Methods
By John Anthoony
People have been getting horse racing tips or information from various sources such as newspapers, booklets, and internet since the time horse betting has started. Some even pay for it just to be on the track of the race.
During the time when internet and mobile was not available, some booklets like Fineform were heavily advertised in the racing newspapers. The system that it promoted was used at ease and bets could be found quickly.
Most often, wagers used to combine selections in multiple bets, using a low stake possible high return strategy based on the tips for horse racing that they got. Primarily it is likely that they would lose a little money. Seldom all selections would win, equivalent of a weeks wages that day. In those days UK betting tax was 9-10% off course or in a bookmaker, and zero on course or at the racetrack. The idea was to encourage people to go horse racing. The renowned professional gamblers were happy if they got 10% of their investment. For example, staking £50,000 and getting a return of £55,000 in a year or a £5,000 profit made them bet solely at the track.
As it progressed, some punters started realizing that there was a scope to make some money by registering for a tipster for the tips for horse racing. But it was extremely difficult to do so, for one had to find a public phone box and ring
There are tipsters out there who are worth subscribing to, but some of them advertise incredible results only to find out that we are disillusioned.
One time I had a friend who was also a horse racing enthusiast like me. We clubbed together subscribed to a £149.99 per month tipster to get these horse racing tips again. We did take a three hour trip to the race track one day, to back a particular horse that the horse racing tipster owned. The horse had run earlier in the week, but the tipster had provided instructions not to back it till just before “the off”. Many people disregarded his tip on that horse racing, and lumped on at the tasty 20/1 on offer. Soon the odds tumbled, all the way down to 3/1. As the race started, it looked to me as if the jockey was attempting to hold the horse back; in any case it was unplaced.
On the phone in, he told us that it had not won due to ignorance of his horse racing tips, but that it would run its real race in a few days time. So we went to the track to try and get the best odds available. To our dismay, instead of the 20/1 we assumed, the horse opened at 15/8. We placed our bets and settled back to watch
Back in the days I have won over £4,000 in a weekend from one particular horse racing tipster selections. In the long run though, he was not profitable. So I looked and yet searching for another horse racing tipster that would supply me the horse racing tips at least on the level of the Sure2Profit ones. Lately I only use the horse racing tips I exchange with the members on the sure2profit.com website and we are all very quite happy with the outcome!
