I am sixty years old and a self employed tradesman. I have nothing to do with horse racing or tipsters, apart from being a punter. No inside information or anything like that. I don't ride a horse, I prefer my Harley Davidson (Sportster 883cc). I have only been betting on racing for about five years, so I started late in life. As you can imagine, with this short experience, I know very little about horses, form, racecourses, etc. That is why, like thousands of other punters, I decided to subscribe to one or two tipsters.

At first I thought that all you had to do was pay your subscription, place your bets on the tips and collect your winnings from the bookies. Wrong!

I soon realised that I had stepped into a (financial) minefield as one tipster after another ensured that my betting bank got less and the bookies got richer! I couldn't believe it after all the promises they had made! I studied staking plans and used the ones that seemed best but it took some time for me to learn that a staking plan cannot make a profit from tips that don't already make a level stake profit, at least not for long.

After many losses and disappointments I have now found ways of using a tipster to make a reasonable profit, using the methods described on this site. I don't make a lot of money because I don't want to risk a lot on high stakes, but I can make a good second income from it which I am happy with.

I set up this site to try and warn other inexperienced punters about the scams, lies and dishonesty which are unfortunately all too common in this business and I hope it helps those who see it to avoid the cheats and scam artists.

If you have any information about scams, etc, please send me an Email and I will add it to the site if possible.

Good luck with your betting, and don't believe a word those tipsters tell you without proof!
