No problems Hoof.
I am one of several people that ensure that "TRF" is "Spam Free" so it did irk a bit.

Your cynical….happy?
happy new year all. if you’re looking for the few odd tips on horses etc, free of course, i always find in the sun newspaper they have a little box on saturdays that says "…… £100 win" etc. they tip alot of fav’s. but on the other hand, you cannot back every winner of every race at every course. following betting markets proves nothing of what a horse is capable of doing on a racetrack, anything can happen, and after all, prices only reflect on how much punters spend.
read "always back winners" by stewart simpson. good if you’re new to betting.
if you’re looking for a cheeky bet, neil robertson looks tasty in the masters snooker. 5/2 is not bad at all.
56. The explanation for the lay betting given by the “connected layers” was essentially this. On 17 December Root met a
gypsy
who called at his café on the morning of the race and told him that SABRE LIGHT and another horse (OLD ROMNEY) would not win that day. Root did not know his name, though he had seen him a few times previously, but had not had lay bet tips from him before. Root told investigators he was so impressed by the
gypsy
, who drove a 4 x 4, that he was persuaded to abandon the idea of backing SABRE LIGHT that day and decided to place the biggest lay bet he had ever taken. Root told Banham of this view that SABRE LIGHT would not win, and this persuaded Banham too to take his large lay position. Benton got his information from Banham. There was evidence that Conrad and Radford knew Benton, and Loftus too knew and had dealings with Benton and Radford.
57. Leaving on one side the obvious fairy-tale elements of this story of thegypsy
inspired betting, it is clear that this cannot explain why Banham and his sister Williams primed their accounts with the necessary money to support their lay betting against SABRE LIGHT on 15 December, two days before the supposed tip. So, to put matters neutrally, further investigating at the enquiry of the real reasons for the lay betting would have been useful. But none of the layers attended.
Paddy Power knocked back my £0.37 bet.
Call me a cynic and old fashioned, but surely the most fulfilling feeling of all is when analysing races and picking the winner yourself, for me anyway. Would not back a tipster’s advice, defies the object for me, however I can understand why people would want to follow tipsters for financial reasons, i.e. Pricewise etc
In my opinion the three most important components of betting are developing a strategy, having sensible money management and controlling your emotions. If you can specialise in specific type races and have your own selection criteria which ignores following the money, applying a small % of your betting bank to each bet and try to take away the emotional attachment that comes with real money on the table then, you’ll be ahead of at least 80% of your fellow punters who lose money through betting.
