The time of the first goal is a crucial part of a football match. When the first goal is scored can change how the rest of a game is played. An early goal can lead to a much more open game than expected, whilst a goal just before half-time can change the dynamics between the teams in the second half.
There are specific markets based around the time of the first goal, which differ by bookmaker and exchange and it is important to understand how these work and the differences between them.
The time of the first goal can also give rise to various trading strategies, which we will discuss further below.
Time of First Goal Market
Before looking at strategies based around the time of first goal, it is important first to understand the market itself. The market tends to be priced up differently by various bookies, with different time bands being used.
Let’s look at the time of first goal market on Oddschecker for this match between Wolfsburg and Werder Bremen in the Bundesliga:
As you can see there are different time bands used by the bookies, with Bet365 using ten-minute bands of 0-10, 11-20, 21-30 and so on whilst the likes of Betway and Genting Bet use fifteen minute bands of 0-15, 16-30 and 31-HT for this market.
On the other hand, if we have a look at the Betfair market for this game:
You will see they use ten minute bands. However, as you will also note the liquidity is poor for this market with £0 matched so far.
Even taking the poor liquidity into account though, the Betfair prices are still better on the back side for the first three time bands than the corresponding bookies’ markets.
Typically there will be some more liquidity before kick-off but even then this is certainly not one of the most liquid markets so caution should be used if operating in the time of first goal market. For the biggest games like Premier League, Champions League, Euros/World Cup etc there will normally be decent liquidity but on other matches it is a little hit and miss.
Time of First Goal Stats
If you are going to bet or trade around the time of the first goal, it is important to know the stats on when the opening goal tends to be scored.
So when exactly is the first goal normally scored in a football match? Well, as a broad average it is typically after half an hour, or around the 30-minute mark.
It does vary by league of course. Here are the stats for the main European leagues for the 2019-20 season in terms of the average of when the first goal was scored in a game:
– Bundesliga: 28 minutes
– Premier League: 31 minutes
– La Liga: 34 minutes
– Serie A: 29 minutes
– Ligue 1: 31 minutes
So as you can see, a pretty narrow range of timings there, all clustering around the 30 minute mark with the Bundesliga, the highest-scoring league, having the earliest average first goal time at 28 minutes whilst La Liga has the latest at 34 minutes.
In addition to the average first goal time, it is worth also taking into account the likelihood of goals per time segment. Here is a visualisation for the Premier League from the 2019-20 season via soccerstats:
If we take the first segment, 0-15 minutes, there were 115 goals scored in this timeframe. That equals roughly a 30% chance of goals in this period, although some games would have had more than one goal so the chances of there being at least one goal would be slightly lower.
As you can see, there are more goals later in both halves, partly because there is injury time to account for, but also because sides tend to push forward more in the latter parts of the half.
Overall though from these stats we can see that the early part of a game tends to be the lowest-scoring, with teams perhaps settling down into a rhythm before pressing forward in search of a goal.
Of course there is some variation by club, with some teams tending to start games on the front foot and scoring a higher proportion of early goals than the average, so it is important to keep that in mind for your betting/trading strategy.
Okay, so now we’ve taken a look at the market and stats, let’s get stuck into the actual strategies you can use around the time of the first goal.
Firstly, you might want to consider a trading strategy based around the time of the first goal. As established above, the first goal isn’t scored on average until around the half-hour mark and the first fifteen minutes of a game are the lowest scoring.
As we mentioned, this is likely to be because teams start off a game in a cagey fashion, feeling each other out and getting a measure of their opponent. Players may be more wary of taking risks early on in a game. Whatever the exact reasons, we can capitalize on the fact that games often start slowly by focusing on the over-under goal markets.
Strategy One – Combine Over/Under 2.5 goals + Time of First Goal
One approach to trading around the first goal is to combine the under 2.5 goals market with the time of the first goal. Often the under 2.5 goal market will drop very quickly during the early part of a game, particularly if the match starts slowly with few clear-cut chances.
So you could back the first 10 or 15 minute segment in the time of first goal market, at odds of around 5.0 for the first 10 minutes (or around 3.5 for the first fifteen minutes).
Here is an example from the Roma v Young Boys match in the Europa League:
As you can see we have backed the 1-10 minute goal band at 5.0 for £10.
Then we have backed under 2.5 goals at around 2.24 before the start of the game:
By the time the game reached around the 10 minute mark without a goal, the odds of under 2.5 goals dropped to 1.95, giving a profit of £13 to cash out:
If there is an early goal, obviously the odds on under 2.5 goals will spike upwards, usually leaving a loss of around £40 if you cash out at that point.
However, having backed the time of first goal to be 0-10 minutes @ 5.0 for £10, you have covered this loss.
If there isn’t a goal, then you will have made £13 from the unders trade, minus £10 from the time of first goal bet, leaving you with £3 profit.
This is just an example, but sometimes the under 2.5 goals market will move by more than that, giving you a bigger profit. This is a simple strategy for producing small but regular profits.
It is important to filter out teams who tend to score early goals though. You can use a site like soccerstats for this.
As you can see from the table above, Arsenal had a total of 13 goals scored/conceded in the first 15 minutes, where as Sheff Utd had just 5. So it would be best to stay away from teams with stats like Arsenal’s for this strategy.
Strategy Two – Use Over/Under Goal Markets in Opposition
Another way to benefit from the stats on the time of the first goal is to use different over/under markets in opposition to each other.
So taking this example of OB v AaB, we back the under 2.5 goals @ 2.04 for £100
We also lay under 3.5 goals for £80 (i.e. a liability of £34.40):
If there is no goal in the early part of the game, you can cash out your under 2.5 goals bet for a guaranteed profit. In this example it was a fairly quiet start to the game so we let it run until 30 minutes, when we were able to cash out the under 2.5 goals for £35.
We then let over 3.5 goals bet run, knowing we were in a no-lose position. There were actually three more goals in the game, so plenty of chances to cash out the over 3.5 goals bet:
Hopefully if you are able to pick games with a high expectation of goals, both bets will come in and you will have a handsome profit.
If there does happen to be an early goal, then you will be in a position where the under 2.5 goals trade is underwater but the over 3.5 goals trade is in healthy profit, although the overall position will be a loss. That is okay, and if you like you can back an early goal in the time of first goal market for say £5 to reduce your liabilities if you wish.
It is usually best to trade both positions out if there is an early goal, as you don’t want to be left in a situation where you could lose both trades! This can happen if the game finishes with exactly three goals, although that eventuality can be covered by backing the 3-0, 0-3, 2-1 and 1-2 scorelines in the correct score markets, for more advanced traders.
Strategy Three – Understanding How Early Goals Affect a Game
The third strategy is to take into account how the time of the first goal affects how a game may unfold. A service that has compiled very detailed stats on this from a database of thousands of matches is Trade On Sports.
For example, an early goal can significantly affect how the rest of a game pans out. It may force a side who had been planning to come out and defend to be much more attacking. The game could really open up. Alternatively a goal just before half-time might shake up a manager’s team talk during the break and force a side to bring on substitutes for the second half.
How exactly the dynamics of goal times affects games has been studied in great detail by Trade On Sports and they have built strategies based on these dynamics. One strategy they use is to back the unders at Half-Time depending on what time of the first goal was scored. That made 23 points profit (or £2300 profit to £100 stakes) during our live trial.
They have other strategies backing the overs at HT, which also performed strongly during our trial and another one backing two goals ahead at HT that is showing a lot of promise.
So we recommend checking out Trade On Sports for some high quality strategies based on the time of the first goal. These are available with their Silver Football membership.
Conclusion – Profiting from the Time of First Goal
When the opening goal is scored is an important – but often neglected – part of soccer betting. It is more of a niche market but offers opportunities if you study the stats and use relevant markets to take advantage of your knowledge of goal times.
The first fifteen minutes are normally the most quiet in terms of goals and this can be used to a trader’s advantage. There are a variety of markets you can use, whether it’s the under/over markets, or the time of first goal market itself – or a number of these markets in combination.
We have detailed some strategies for betting and trading on the time of the first goal above. We hope you found these useful and they give you some ideas for developing your own strategies.
Good luck with your trading and please remember to always gamble responsibly.

The Betfair SP results continue to track pretty closely with those at advised prices, with a profit of 2 points also made since our last update and 10 points profit made for our trial overall at BSP.
Just a reminder this is a low-volume favourite-backing horse racing service from renowned tipster Mel Gee.
It has performed well in our trial but is more of a slow burner than most of the services we review so may not suit everyone’s style of betting, but the results to date have been solid.
It’s been a slightly trick time for horse racing tipster First Class Racing recently, with a loss of4 points made at advised prices since our last update.
That means they are now 10 points up for our trial overall at advised prices.
The Betfair SP results continue to track pretty closely with those at advised prices, with a loss of 4 points also made since our last update and 8 points profit made for our trial overall at BSP.

It has performed well in our trial but is more of a slow burner than most of the services we review so may not suit everyone’s style of betting, but the results to date have been solid.
The Betfair SP results continue to track pretty closely with those at advised prices, withone point profit also made since our last update and 12 points profit made for our trial overall at BSP.
As mentioned before, this service is the very definition of low volume with just a few bets per month normally.
In terms of consistency you can’t complain though as a good profit has been made at both advised prices and BSP.
So if this approach is working for them it would be a risk to change it just to try and secure more betting volume.
The Betfair SP results continue to track pretty closely with those at advised prices, with also no change to the net P/L made since our last update and 11 points profit made for our trial overall at BSP.
It’s been pretty quiet over the last month with just two bets – one winner and one loser. Will have to see if things pick up a bit now as we get in to the National Hunt season proper.
Things continue to move along nicely for horse racing tipster First Class Racing, with a profit of 4 points made at advised prices since our last update.
That means they are now 13 points up for our trial overall at advised prices.
The Betfair SP results continue to track pretty closely with those at advised prices, with 3 points profit made since our last update and 11 points profit made for our trial overall at BSP.
So this service has proved to be pretty solid. As mentioned before it’s a slow burner but with a 55% strike rate there are a high proportion of winners.
The betting bank has now grown by 65% with the absolute minimum of worry or drawdowns.
The low bet volume also means there’s a very low workload involved in following so overall there’s a lot to like about this service.
The Betfair SP results continue to track pretty closely with those at advised prices, with 2 points profit made since our last update and 8 points profit made for our trial overall at BSP.
As mentioned last time this is a very low volume service, so really to make it worthwhile once subscription costs are taken into account you would need to stake at fairly decent levels – e.g. at least £100 or £200 per point.
The good news though is that the strike rate is high, with many selections being odds-on favourites so it’s possible to build a bank with this service. It’s also very easy to follow with so few bets.
At Betfair SP, there has also been a positive movement since our last update with 4 points profit made, meaning they are now 6 points up for our trial overall at BSP.
As mentioned last time this is a very low volume service but if you are looking for more action it would be worth checking out their sister service Second Class Racing, which made 70 points profit from laying horses in our six month trial.
At Betfair SP, there has also been a small change since our last update with 1 point lost, meaning they are now 2 points up for our trial overall at BSP.
It’s been pretty quiet from this service lately but if you are looking for more action it might be worth checking out their sister service Second Class Racing, which made 70 points profit from laying horses in our six month trial.
At Betfair SP, there has been a small change since our last update with 1 point profit made, meaning they are now 3 points up for our trial overall at BSP.
We’ve seen a little more volume from this service lately, so will be interesting to see if this continues as the flat season proper gets underway.
At Betfair SP, there has been no change since our last update and they are still 2 points up for our trial overall at BSP.
As mentioned in previous updates, this is very much a slow burner service with a low number of bets each month.
However, their spin-off service Second Class Racing – which is a laying service – has a lot more action with multiple bets per day normally and is going great guns. You can check out our review of it here.
It’s been a slightly better time for horse racing tipster First Class Racing over the last month, with a profit of 4 points made at advised prices since our last update.
That means they are now 4 points up for our trial overall at advised prices.
At Betfair SP, they have won 3 points since our last update and are 2 points up for our trial overall at BSP.
In case you missed it, there is now a spin-off service from the same tipster, called Second Class Racing, which is a laying service rather than a backing one and we have just started a review of it here.
A slight move backwards for horse racing tipster First Class Racing over the last month, with a loss of 3 points made at advised prices since our last update.
That means they are now level for our trial overall at advised prices.
At Betfair SP, they have also lost 3 points since our last update and are 1 point down for our trial overall at BSP.
To be honest we think this service is just too low volume to be viable for most people to follow. Only 3 bets over the last month is not really enough to get things moving forward.
That is how the tipster operates but without upping the bet volume it’s difficult to see how they can produce enough profit to make it worthwhile to follow.
At Betfair SP, they have also lost 2 points since our last update, meaning they are now also 2 points up for our trial overall at BSP.
As mentioned before this is a low volume service – with just three bets so far in July.
So this service really is the definition of a slow burner and is one just to have ticking along in the background and see the bank gradually move upwards.
At Betfair SP, they have made also made 3 points profit since our last update, meaning they are now also 4 points up for our trial overall at BSP.
As mentioned before this is a low volume service – in fact there were no bets at all in May(!), but we’ve seen a bit more action so far in June with four bets.
So this service really is the definition of a slow burner and is one just to have ticking along in the background and see the bank gradually move upwards.
At Betfair SP, they have made 1 point profit since our last update, meaning they are now also 1 point up for our trial overall at BSP.
As mentioned before this is a low volume service with just a few bets per month normally, which will suit those who like a low workload, whilst others prefer a bit more action.
At Betfair SP, there have been 2 points lost since our last update, meaning they are now level for our trial overall.
As mentioned before this is a low volume service with just a few bets per month normally, which will suit those who like a low workload, whilst others prefer a bit more action.
At Betfair SP, there has also been no change to the P/L since our last update and they are still 2 points up for our trial so far.
As mentioned before this is a low volume service with just a few bets per month normally, which will suit those who like a low workload, whilst others prefer a bit more action.
Either way we would hope that things can get moving forward a little more positively in the coming weeks as we get into the higher quality racing in the spring.
It’s been a quiet start to our trial of horse racing tipster First Class Racing, with a profit of 2 points made to advised prices so far after six weeks.
We were expecting this to be a low volume service but there have only been three bets so far, which is even less than expected.
However, partly this is down to the time of year when there just aren’t very many of the type of high class races the tipster Mel likes to go for. So we would expect bet volume to pick up a little from here.
The main thing though is that a profit has been made so far which is what matters most.
We are starting a new trial today of a horse racing tipster called First Class Racing.
If you have been following our blog recently you may have seen the live Q&A they hosted recently with the resident tipster at First Class Racing, Mel Gee.
It was a very interesting discussion where Mel went through his unique betting style and why it has proved so successful for him in recent years.
Essentially the approach revolves around backing favourites in top class racing – indeed Mel only backs in Class 1 races these days.
It’s a case of finding situations where a quality horse has everything in its favour, and doesn’t have to worry about carrying extra weight as the races bet on are non-handicaps.
The strategy appears to have worked very well, with Mel having doubled his members’ betting banks over the last 14 months.
It is a very low volume service, with usually just a few bets per month. Mel likes to be very selective and only put up selections when, as we say, a horse has absolutely everything in its favour.
Although some people like more regular betting action, the advantage of a low volume approach like this is it’s very easy to follow with minimal work involved.
It also means we will need to run quite a long trial with this one to get a big enough sample size of bets.
So we will kick things off today and will report back on how things are going here as usual.

Since Betfair launched over 20 years ago, lay betting has become a key part of the gambling world.
Once reserved for bookies, now any punter can lay a horse, player, or team they believe will lose.
While this opens up new opportunities, making a profit from lay betting is tougher than it seems.
Bookies can adjust odds in their favour, but on betting exchanges, punters must offer fair odds to get their bets matched.
Lay betting requires real skill, and few bettors succeed consistently.
Here at Honest Betting Reviews, we’ve tested many lay tipsters—most fall short, but a few have stood the test of time.
Below, we’ll highlight the best lay betting tipsters.
What is Lay Betting?
Lay betting is a unique form of wagering where you bet on a horse to lose a race, rather than to win.
This approach, often referred to as “laying a horse,” essentially turns you into the bookmaker.
Unlike traditional horse racing betting where you back a horse to win, lay betting requires you to pay out if the horse wins.
This method has gained popularity among professional bettors because it allows them to capitalize on overpriced horses and generate consistent profits.
By laying horses that are less likely to win, you can leverage the odds in your favor and enhance your betting strategy.
The Top Lay Betting Tipsters
We’ll take a look now at our top five lay betting tipsters.
It’s worth noting that while the return on investment (ROI) with lay tipsters is typically lower than with backing tipsters, the strike rate (or win rate) is usually higher.
Often the strike rate for laying services can be over 70%.
That means they can have long winning streaks where you can build the bank and enjoy watching the selected horses (or players) losing!
Anyway, without further ado let’s get on with our top 5 lay betting tipsters.
5. Tennis Goldmine
At number five in our list is a tennis service called Tennis Goldmine.
This is a system whereby you lay tennis players based on certain criteria as set out in an instruction manual that is supplied when you sign up.
The criteria for selections is very simple and it should only take you a few minutes each day to find the selections and place the lay bets.
We ran a six month trial of Tennis Goldmine and it performed very well, producing 28 points profit at a return on investment of 10% and a strike rate of 52%.
As a bonus you also get additional trading and betting tips from Patrick Ross (who designed the system) when signing up.
Tennis has excellent liquidity for laying so there should be no problem getting bets matched, so overall this is a decent laying service that is worth checking out.
4. Second Class Racing
Second Class Racing is a lay betting service that has gained notable recognition for its consistent success in horse racing.
Run by tipster Mel Gee, the service is part of the Betchat stable and offers lay betting tips via Telegram, with a straightforward “set and forget” approach.
Over a six-month trial we conducted of the service, Second Class Racing delivered impressive results, proving its merit in a challenging betting strategy.
Key stats from the trial include:
Profit/Loss: +70 points
Strike Rate: 85%
Bank Growth: 70%
Return on Investment (ROI): 14% (or 3.1% based on total liability)
The service focuses on laying horses at odds between 3.0 and 6.0 on Betfair.
With an 85% strike rate, the vast majority of bets were successful, helping to build a healthy profit over the course of the trial.
A 100-point betting bank is recommended, and even when a few bets weren’t matched at the advised odds, the overall results balanced out.
What sets Second Class Racing apart is its ability to generate consistent returns in an area of betting that can be difficult to master.
With profits of 70 points both at advised prices and Betfair SP (BSP), it’s clear that Mel Gee’s service is a top choice for lay bettors.
In conclusion, with its strong results and high strike rate, Second Class Racing has passed our rigorous trial and stands as one of the few successful lay betting services in the market today.
3. Little Acorns International
Little Acorns International builds on the success of the original Little Acorns service, which is featured higher up this list.
Little Acorns International expands the reach of the original to racing worldwide, focusing on US racing.
Known for its disciplined and methodical approach, Little Acorns International focuses on low-liability lay betting, helping users steadily grow their bank over time.
The strategy behind the service is simple but effective: identify horses with diminishing win chances and lay them at carefully chosen odds.
One of the key features of Little Acorns International is its scalability.
It employs a staking plan that adjusts based on your results, helping to protect your bankroll during losing streaks while maximizing profits during winning periods.
This long-term strategy has made Little Acorns International a reliable choice for bettors looking to build consistent returns.
Results so far have been top notch, with over280 points profit made from the recommend staking approach.
A £1,500 starting bank would have grown to over £8,000 using their compounding strategy.
With results like those for lay betting tips, Little Acorns International offers a proven and scalable option with few better
2. Back of the Net
One of the standout services in the world of lay betting is Back of the Net, a tipster service that focuses on lay betting strategies with a unique edge.
The service has gained a solid reputation for delivering consistent profits by identifying in-play opportunities to lay in football matches.
What sets Back of the Net apart is their highly analytical approach.
They use detailed data and form analysis to spot teams likely to underperform, giving bettors a smart way to profit from these insights.
This can be especially effective in live football markets where stats and the flow of the game can present significant in-play value opportunities.
Members receive regular selections via the Telegram messenger app with clear instructions on how to place the bets, making it easy even for those new to lay betting.
The results have been highly impressive, with Back of the Net producing over 70 points profit made to date.
If you’re looking for a lay betting service that focuses on football and has a proven track record of success, Back of the Net is definitely worth considering.
1. Little Acorns Gold
At the top of our list of lay betting tipsters is the superb Little Acorns Gold. This is a tipping service based off the very popular and long-running service Little Acorns.
In essence Little Acorns is a low-liability horse racing laying system that lays odds-on shots according to a set of strict criteria.
It has been running for over 15 years and has won numerous awards (including our very own Best Horse Racing Service 2022 as voted for by our members).
The system has made a profit every year, with some years producing over 100 points profit.
There is simply no other laying strategy out there with anything like the longevity and record of success that Little Acorns has achieved.
In terms of operating the system, there are different staking systems you can use, from flat staking to Fibonacci staking, which comes with a little more risk but has delivered greater profit to date.
Whilst Little Acorns itself is a betting manual containing the rules of the system, Little Acorns Gold is a tipping service which provides the tips generated from the Little Acorns system for you each day so you don’t have to spend time finding the selections yourself.
Alerts are sent out via e-mail and Telegram when there is a selection, so all you have to do is then place the lay bet. For those pressed for time, this is certainly a valuable option.
We ran our own review of Little Acorns Gold and it made a handy 30 points profit over the course of our trial.
Overall for a lay betting service with an outstanding long-term track record, there is simply nothing better than Little Acorns for winning money.

Rory McIlroy will once again be aiming to complete the career grand slam by slipping on the Green Jacket on Sunday evening and is available at 15/2 to complete the job.
The Northern Irishman has been on superb form this season after capturing the AT&T Pebble Beach and Players Championship titles. The pressure will be on and it will be interesting to see how he copes with it all.
Just behind them in the betting are the likes of Collin Morikawa at 14/1 and Jon Rahm at 16/1.

Golf Betting – Big Wins Possible but Patience Required!
To profit from golf betting, you need to take a long-term approach, stay patient, and have a bankroll that can handle the swings.
Unlike sports like tennis or football, golf betting often involves longer losing streaks and periods of drawdown.
This is largely because golf tipsters typically back players at bigger odds — 20/1, 50/1, even 100/1 and above.
While the strike rate is naturally lower at these prices, landing a 100/1+ winner is an unmatched thrill and can be hugely rewarding when it hits.
Stick with a proven golf tipping service (like the ones we’ve ranked below), and over time you’ll outperform the vast majority of bettors.
So tee it up with the Best Golf Tipsters and you could soon be celebrating like a major champion!
Top 10 Golf Tipsters
Without further delay, we present our list of the top ten best golf tipsters below.
The list is organised in descending order, with the most outstanding tipster featured last.
We hope you find this list valuable. If you believe we have missed anyone who deserves recognition, please let us know in the comments below.
10. Steve Palmer – The Bold Gambler in Search of a Jackpot Win
Steve Palmer is the lead golf tipster for the Racing Post, delivering weekly betting tips for both the PGA Tour and DP World Tour. Before taking over this high-profile position, he worked alongside veteran golf tipster Jeremy Chapman.
A key focus of the book is Palmer’s daring approach — placing speculative double bets on PGA and European Tour events, often with combined odds running into the thousands, hoping to land a monster win during a major championship.
His dream? To land a payout of £30,000 or more, which he says would allow him to become a full-time professional punter.
He even coined a colourful term for it — the “face-spitter” — a win so big he could march into his boss’s office and quit in dramatic fashion (yes, including the literal spitting bit!).
Published in 2011, the book documents the highs and lows of golf betting, but doesn’t feature the kind of jackpot win Palmer aspires to. As with lottery-style punts, success hinges on timing and a slice of luck.
Unfortunately, the Racing Post doesn’t publish performance data for its tipsters, so it’s difficult to assess Palmer’s long-term track record with any certainty. However, one snapshot from 2012 showed a return of over 100 points in six months — though more recent verified results are scarce.
From Palmer’s own accounts and feedback from readers, it appears he hovers around break-even or makes modest profits.
That’s respectable — but not enough to rank him among the Best Golf Tipsters in terms of consistent, verified returns.
9. PGA Profit – The Algorithmic Golf Guru
Next on our list of the Best Golf Tipsters is PGA Profit — a consistently reliable service that’s been delivering strong results for over four years.
What sets PGA Profit apart is its use of a sophisticated algorithm developed by a mathematics expert. This data-driven model analyses a wide range of statistics, such as strokes gained tee-to-green, driving accuracy, and more, to identify potential value selections each week.
The system goes further by evaluating course conditions, player profiles, and how individual golfers are suited to the layout. It also factors in current form, injury updates, and other key variables to build a complete picture before any tip is released.
In short, PGA Profit leaves no stone unturned in its approach to the golf betting markets.
Of course, the real proof is in the results — and this is where PGA Profit truly shines.
Here’s a look at their year-by-year performance:
2018: +274 points profit
2019: +286 points profit
2020: +208 points profit
2021: +500 points profit
2022: -91 point loss
2023: -233 point loss
2024: +222 points profit
The total profit since starting tipping adds up to over 1160 points profit a return on investment of just under 22%.
Some of their top winners include:
Mackenzie Hughes at the Sandersons Farms at 100/1
Max Homa at the Genesis Invitational at 66/1
Garrick Higgo at the Gran Canaria Open at 40/1
Abraham Ancer at the WGC Fedex at 45/1
Max Homa at the Fortinet Championship at 66/1
The tough results experienced in 2022 and 2023 detracted somewhat from the previous results which were excellent.
However, with a return to form in 2024 hopefully they are back on the right track.
Despite the setbacks, their overall performance still places PGA Profit among the most profitable golf tipsters.
8. Golfbetsgold – The Analytical Betting Powerhouse
GolfBetsGoldis a long-running and respected golf tipping service with a strong reputation and loyal following.
The service is run by Martin Colwell, a qualified accountant and auditor who applies a data-driven approach to golf betting. His use of detailed analysis and statistical modelling has proven highly effective in identifying value bets.
GolfBetsGold provides tips for both pre-tournament and in-play markets across the PGA and European (DP World) Tours.
During our nine-month trial, the service delivered an impressive 93-point profit.
Some standout winners during our trial included:
Billy Horschel at the BMW PGA Championship – 28/1 (WON)
Nacho Elvira at the Cazoo Open – 22/1 (WON)
Garrick Higgo at the Palmetto Championship – 16/1 (WON, in-play)
Sam Horsfield as First Round Leader at the Scandinavian Mixed – 28/1 (WON, dead heat)
John Catlin at the Austrian Open – 45/1 (WON)
Rory McIlroy at the Wells Fargo – 20/1 (WON)
Jon Rahm at the US Open – 10/1 (WON)
Beyond our own testing, the service has shown strong long-term performance. Here are the annual results since its inception in 2018:
2023: -6 points
2022: -35 points
2021: +143 points
2020: +65 points
2019: +123 points
2018: +60 points
Total Profit: +350 points
While recent years have seen a bit of a dip, the long-term profit remains very healthy — placing GolfBetsGold firmly among the Best Golf Tipsters over the past few years.
The service is also easy to follow, with just a handful of selections each week. Tips are clearly presented and usually come with in-depth write-ups that explain the reasoning behind each pick. In our experience, the logic and analysis provided are sound and well thought out.
In summary, GolfBetsGoldis a golf tipster that deserves your attention if you are looking for profitable golf tipsters.
7. Michael’s Golf Betting – The Patreon Puncher
🏆Elvis completes the FRL/Outright double at 80 and 100/1!
Next up is a Michael’s Golf Betting, a service that originally offered free tips on Twitter/X but has since moved to a paid platform on Patreon — still at a very affordable price point.
What really makes this service stand out is its exceptional results across a wide range of global tours. Michael doesn’t just focus on the PGA or DP World Tour — he finds value in lesser-followed circuits as well, often unearthing long-shot winners at huge odds.
Here are some of his standout stats:
+2,199 points profit in 2023 with a 37.71% ROI
+1,798 points profit in 2024 with a 27.78% ROI
+300 points profit already in 2025 (year to date)
Some of Michael’s biggest winners include:
Scott Dunlap at the Insperity Invitational – WON @ 225/1
Michael Maguire at the Black Mountain Championship – WON @ 125/1
Elvis Smylie at the Australian PGA Championship – WON @ 100/1, plus First Round Leader @ 80/1
Ryo Hisatsune at the Cazoo Open de France – WON @ 100/1
Subscribers can choose from two membership tiers:
Basic Membership (£8.99/month + tax): Covers tips for the PGA Tour, DP World Tour, LIV Tour, Champions Tour, Korn Ferry Tour, LPGA, LET, and Challenge Tour.
Premium Membership (£10.99/month + tax): Includes tips for 20+ tours worldwide plus DraftKings fantasy picks for the PGA Tour.
We’ve personally followed Michael’s selections for quite some time and can confirm that the results are genuine and verifiable.
However, it’s worth noting that odds can be impacted quickly, especially on the smaller tours, so it pays to act fast when tips are released.
Overall though the service is top notch and Michael’s tips are well worth checking out.
6. Golf Betting Club – Brothers in Golf Betting Arms
The Golf Betting Club was founded by Scottish brothers Duncan and Neil Campbell, whose passion for golf betting was inspired by their father, a golf journalist.
That early exposure to the sport and its intricacies led to a lifelong interest in player predictions and golf wagering.
With over two decades of combined experience in the golf betting space, the brothers launched Golf Betting Club in March 2020 — right when professional golf was temporarily paused due to the COVID-19 pandemic.
Originally offering free golf tips, the service has since transitioned to a subscription-based model.
Drawing on their extensive betting knowledge, Duncan and Neil have developed and continually refined over 100 detailed player profiles covering the world’s top golfers.
This in-depth research is a major asset, allowing them to identify form trends, player-course fits, and betting value others might miss. These profiles are updated every year to stay relevant and insightful.
The Golf Betting Club covers tips across the PGA Tour, DP World Tour (formerly the European Tour), and LIV Golf, and they’ve landed some impressive winners since launching.
Here are just a few of their standout success stories:
Chris Kirk @ 40/1
Tom McKibbin @ 100/1
Jim Herman @ 300/1
Martin Laird @ 275/1
Brian Gay @ 100/1
Ockie Strydom @ 100/1
Daniel Gavins 110/1
Guido Migliozzi 80/1
Their overall record stands at 683 points profit made at a return on investment of 15%.
And the yearly totals are as follows:-
2024: -70 pts (so far)
2023: +150 pts
2022: +8 pts
2021: +229 pts
2020: +366 pts
With a record that is highly commendable over the last five years, the Golf Betting Club is a deserved new entry to our list.
N.B. – sign up to a 6 or 12 month membership of Golf Betting Club quoting ‘HonestBettingReviews25’ and they’ll refund £25 as a discount!
5. The 20 Minute System – The Efficient Betting Tool
Not a traditional tipster, but The 20 Minute System has delivered impressive golf betting results and certainly deserves a place among the Best Golf Tipsters list.
Developed by Mike Cruickshank, a well-known name in the matched betting world, this is a powerful software tool that scans both bookmaker and exchange markets to uncover value opportunities.
The system specifically targets each-way bets in golf, identifying scenarios where the place part of the bet offers better value than Betfair’s win and place odds — creating a consistent edge over the market.
As the name suggests, it’s simple to use and only takes around 20 minutes a week to find qualifying bets.
Performance has been very strong, with:
+519 points profit in the first 18 months of operation
+302 points profit during our own 9-month live test
Thriston Lawrence at the Joburg Open – WON @ 200/1
Luke List at the Farmers Insurance Open – WON @ 80/1
Plus other winners at 45/1 and 33/1
With bookmakers regularly offering enhanced each-way terms — often paying out on 10 or even 11 places in majors and top-tier events — this kind of strategy can offer real value.
The 20 Minute System leverages this effectively, delivering valuable bets for its members.
4. Edwards Tips – The Snooker Star Turned Golf Betting Pro
Craig Edwards, a former professional snooker player, has successfully transitioned into the betting world with his highly regarded Edwards Tips service.
Although Craig covers both golf and snooker, the bulk of his profits — and his biggest wins — come from golf betting, earning him a well-deserved place among the Best Golf Tipsters.
Since launching in 2018, Craig has generated an impressive +716 points profit from his golf selections alone. His success is split between two core strategies:
+275 points profit from place markets (e.g. Top 10, Top 20), with a 25% ROI
+441 points profit from outright winner tips, boasting a 40% ROI
Some of Craig’s most notable golf winners include:
Yuto Katsuragawa at the ISPS Handa – WON @ 125/1
Hideki Matsuyama at the Genesis Invitational – WON @ 80/1
Richard McEvoy at the European Masters – WON @ 150/1
Tom Lewis at the Portugal Masters – WON @ 66/1
Bubba Watson at the Travellers Championship – WON @ 50/1
Mito Pereira at the Bogota Championship – WON @ 125/1
Kevin Na at the Colonial – WON @ 66/1
Christian Bezuidenhout at the Andalucia Masters – WON @ 100/1
These wins highlight Craig’s exceptional eye for value and deep market insight — qualities that set him apart from many other tipsters.
During our own trial, Edwards Tips delivered a 41-point profit, even using very conservative staking (typically around 0.1 points per bet). If using standard 1-point each-way stakes, that would equate to a massive 410-point return.
The service can produce a high volume of selections, which may be overwhelming for some. However, users can choose to follow only the outright tips or selectively bet depending on their preferred level of involvement.
For those seeking a smart, analytical, and value-focused golf tipster, Craig Edwards is a name worth following closely.
3. Sporting Life Golf (Ben Coley) – The Golf Punter’s Best Friend
The lead golf tipster at The Sporting Life, Ben Coley, has built a stellar reputation over the years thanks to some truly remarkable results — and he’s now considered by many to be one of the Best Golf Tipsters in the business.
Ben became especially popular after a fantastic 2020, landing huge winners like:
Marc Warren at the Austrian Open – 150/1
Sami Valimaki at the Oman Open – 250/1
Cameron Smith at the Sony Open – 50/1
While 2019 wasn’t a standout year for Ben, he bounced back strongly with consistent profits in 2021, 2022, 2023, and beyond. Here’s a look at his yearly totals:
2024: +255 pts
2023: +312 pts
2022: +585 pts
2021: +693 pts
2020: +364 pts
2019: -145 pts
2018: +51 pts
2017: +316 pts
2016: +191 pts Total Profit: +2,621 points
Across his career, Ben has picked out some incredible long-shot winners, including:
Russell Henley – Honda Classic 2014 @ 300/1
Richie Ramsay – Omega European Masters 2012 @ 100/1
Kyle Stanley – Waste Management Phoenix Open 2012 @ 66/1
Hunter Mahan – The Barclays 2014 @ 50/1
Those are some serious prices — and a clear sign of his talent in finding value where others don’t.
However, one challenge with Ben’s tips is their massive popularity. Because they’re free and widely followed, odds tend to collapse very quickly.
This means many punters struggle to match the advised prices and often have to settle for lower odds. Of course, that’s not Ben’s fault — it’s simply a result of how successful and respected he’s become.
Before joining The Sporting Life, Ben was a tipster for Sports Live Radio and also worked for one of the UK’s major bookmakers. His years of experience, hard work, and deep knowledge of the sport are evident in the quality of his analysis.
With his free tips, proven track record, and consistent long-term profit, Ben Coley is undoubtedly one of the top names among the Best Golf Tipsters around today.
2. Golf Forecast – The Data-Driven Success Machine
Our next entry on the list of the Best Golf Tipsters is a little different from the rest. Golf Forecast isn’t a traditional tipping service — it’s an algorithm-based platform that uses data science and machine learning to generate golf betting selections.
Rather than relying on subjective opinion or human intuition, Golf Forecast analyses ShotLink data, which provides detailed stats on every player’s strengths and weaknesses. When the algorithm identifies a player whose odds offer better value than the market suggests, it flags them as a selection.
What makes Golf Forecast particularly impressive is its use of machine learning to continually update and refine its predictions, ensuring the system stays responsive to the latest form trends and betting market movements.
Since launching in 2017, Golf Forecast has delivered:
1,310 points profit
A superb ROI of 39%, one of the highest we’ve seen from any golf tipping service
An average monthly profit of £168 to £10 stakes at advised prices
That’s a strong track record by any standard.
Some of their biggest winners include:
Ian Poulter at the Houston Open – WON @ 100/1
Bryson DeChambeau at the Northern Trust – WON @ 90/1
Matt Kuchar at the Sony Open – WON @ 40/1
Patrick Reed at the Masters – WON @ 55/1
Lanto Griffin at the Houston Open – WON @ 60/1
These long-shot victories demonstrate the algorithm’s ability to uncover real value that might otherwise go unnoticed.
We’ve conducted two separate trials of Golf Forecast and it passed both with flying colours, showing consistent, transparent performance under scrutiny.
With its strong results, innovative tech-driven approach, and hands-off ease of use, Golf Forecast earns its spot as one of the most unique and effective options among the Best Golf Tipsters available today.
1. The Golf Insider – The Pinnacle of Golf Betting Expertise

With over seven years of verified results, The Golf Insider has built a reputation for finding big-priced winners and consistently delivering long-term profits.
Since launching the service in 2014, The Golf Insider has racked up more than 2,000 points profit — equivalent to £20,000 profit at £10 per point stakes.
That impressive return is backed by a remarkable 30% ROI, placing this service firmly among the elite in golf tipping.
During our live trial, The Golf Insider didn’t disappoint, notching up notable winners at 150/1 and 50/1.
Some of their most outstanding success stories include:
Marc Warren – WON @ 150/1
Chris Kirk – WON @ 125/1
Rasmus Hojgaard – WON @ 200/1
Andrew Dodt – WON @ 150/1

Martin Kaymer – WON @ 70/1
These winners aren’t just flukes — they’re the result of an advanced data-driven approach.
The Golf Insider uses a proprietary computer model and value ratings system, drawing on crucial performance stats like strokes gained off the tee, greens in regulation, and putting efficiency to identify undervalued players before the market catches on.
It’s this meticulous, stats-based process that has powered the service’s sustained success.
Few tipsters can match The Golf Insider’s combination of longevity, profitability, and accuracy.
With a proven track record stretching back nearly a decade and a knack for unearthing huge-priced winners, it’s no surprise that The Golf Insider ranks number one on our list of the Best Golf Tipsters in 2025.
How to Select the Best Golf Tipsters
Finding the best golf tipsters can be a challenge — especially if you’re just getting started with golf betting.
With so many services out there claiming to offer winning tips, it’s important to know what separates the genuine pros from the pretenders. To make sure you’re following a reliable and profitable tipster, here are the key factors to keep in mind:
1. Proven Profitability
The number one reason to follow a golf tipster is to make a profit. Always check for a verified and consistent track record of success.
The best golf tipsters have years of documented results and a long-term profit history — not just a few lucky winners.
2. Industry Experience
Golf is a complex sport to bet on, so experience matters. Tipsters who have been analysing tournaments and betting markets for years tend to have a deeper understanding of the players, course dynamics, and value opportunities.
Their strategies are time-tested and more likely to withstand variance.
3. Transparency
Honest tipsters don’t hide behind vague promises. Look for those who are clear about their selections, staking plans, odds taken, and overall results.
Transparency builds trust — and helps you decide whether their approach aligns with your betting style.
4. User Reviews and Reputation
What do other punters say? Independent reviews and user ratings can give you a good sense of a tipster’s reliability and performance.
If a tipster consistently gets positive feedback and high ratings, that’s a good sign they’re delivering value.
5. Price vs. Value
Tipster services vary in cost — some are free, while others charge a monthly or annual subscription. While paying for tips can reduce your bottom line, many premium services justify their cost with strong returns.
Weigh the price of the service against potential profit. Free services are a great starting point, but don’t rule out paid options if they’re proven and profitable.
With this in mind, you’re now in a much better position to choose between free or paid golf tipsters — and find the service that best suits your betting goals. 😊 🏌️👍
Golf Betting Strategy and Management
While following the best golf tipsters is a great starting point, a truly successful betting approach involves more than just backing their selections.
To consistently profit from golf betting, you need a solid understanding of the markets, odds, and risk management.
Here are some essential strategy tips to take your betting to the next level:
1. Bankroll Management
Arguably the most important aspect of any betting strategy is effective bankroll management. Set aside a dedicated betting budget and stick to it — no exceptions.
This helps protect you from large losses and keeps you in the game long term.
Break your bankroll into small, manageable units and bet a consistent percentage (e.g. 1-2%) on each selection. This reduces the impact of losing runs and helps you ride out the inevitable variance in golf betting.
2. Odds Shopping
To maximise your profits, always compare odds before placing a bet. Bookmakers can vary significantly in the prices they offer for the same golfer or market.
By using odds comparison tools, you can ensure you’re getting the best possible value — which can make a big difference to your bottom line over time.
Even if you’re following the best golf tipsters, taking the best available odds increases your returns without changing your bets.
3. Hedging for Risk Management
Hedging is a smart way to protect profits or limit losses during a tournament. For example, if your player is leading going into the final round, you might place a bet on one of their closest challengers.
This can lock in a profit regardless of the outcome or help offset a potential loss.
Used wisely, hedging can reduce risk and bring more stability to your results — especially in volatile, high-odds golf markets.
4. Choose the Right Staking Plan
Having a staking plan brings consistency to your betting and helps you manage risk effectively. Two popular methods include:
Level staking – Betting the same amount on each selection
Percentage staking – Betting a fixed percentage of your bankroll (e.g. 2%) per bet
Pick a plan that matches your risk tolerance and stick with it. Avoid changing stakes emotionally or chasing losses — discipline is key.
5. Understand Golf Betting Markets
Golf offers a wide range of markets beyond just backing the winner. Some of the most popular include:
Outright Winner
Top 10 / Top 20 Finish
First Round Leader
Head-to-Head Matchups
Each-Way Betting
Each market comes with different odds, volatility, and profit potential. Understanding how these markets work allows you to align them with your strategy — and helps you get more out of the tips provided by top services.
By combining strong bankroll control, smart odds comparison, risk management techniques like hedging, and a solid knowledge of betting markets, you’ll dramatically improve your golf betting performance.
Pair these fundamentals with advice from the best golf tipsters, and you’ll be well on your way to long-term success on the fairways of the betting world.

3. Loves Racing
Loves Racing, aptly named after its creator Brett Love, distinguishes itself not only through its name but also through its remarkable track record as a tipster service.
After a career-ending injury thwarted his professional football dreams, Brett pivoted to his family’s trade – gambling, albeit on the betting side rather than as a bookie, establishing himself as a professional gambler.
He set up his tipping service in late 2017 and since then his results have been stellar, with over 700 points profit made in total – including 84 points in our own trial of his service.
Mr Love specialises in particular in festivals and big race meetings, with Cheltenham being no exception.
His record at Cheltenham stretching back to 2018 reads as follows:
2018: +29 points profit
2019: -24 points lost
2020: +35 points profit
2021: +55 points profit
2022: +3 points profit
2023: +21 points profit
So that’s 119 points profit made at the Cheltenham festival in total, an excellent record. That would be £2,380 profit at £20 per point stakes.
Memorable winners at the festival over the years include Beware the Bear at 16/1, Indefatigable at 50/1, Black Tears at 14/1, Belfast Banter at 50/1, Third Wind at 25/1 and Iroko at 10/1.
With huge winners like these over the years, Loves Racing has a deserved reputation as one of the most formidable Cheltenham tipsters out there.
2. The Outside Edge
The Outside Edge is a horse racing tipster based at the Betting Gods team of tipsters. Their expertise covers UK and Irish flat & jumps racing, occasionally extending to tips for US racing.
The service has been running since late 2019 and has made over 600 points profit in total, at a return on investment of 8%. They also made 269 points profit in a live trial here on the site.
Those are very impressive results in themselves, but their Cheltenham record stands out even more with some excellent returns over the last few years, including:
2020: +52 points profit
2021: +38 points profit
2022: -3 points lost
2023: +9 points profit
That’s 96 points profit total in four years of tipping at the Cheltenham festival, which would be £1,920 at £20 per point stakes.
Noteworthy winners from the Outside Edge at Cheltenham include Langer Dan at 10/1, Maries Rock at 12/1, Black Tears at 12/1, Heaven Help us at 25/1 and Indefatigable at 50/1.
Top stuff from a top tipster – the Outside Edge is well worthy of a place high on this list.
1. Bet Alchemist
The undoubted king of betting at the Cheltenham festival is the Bet Alchemist.
This is a service that has been running since 2010 and has established a formidable reputation as one of the best jumps tipsters out there.
With over 600 points profit made in total, the Bet Alchemist has delivered strong results for over a decade now – as they did during our own live trial of the service.
However, it is at Cheltenham that the tipster (Nicky Doyle) really comes into his own, with an outstanding record at the festival.
Going back to 2010 he has made a whopping 366 points profit at Cheltenham, with an average profit of 26 points per festival.
That would work out at over £14,600 total profit or £1040 profit per festival at £20 each-way stakes.
The last few years at the festival have been impressive too:
2018: +26 points profit
2019: +13 points profit
2020: +7 points profit
2021: -5 points lost
2022: +5 points profit
2023: +47 points profit
Some of the Bet Alchemist’s biggest winners at Cheltenham include Favoir at 66/1, Good Time Jonny at 12/1, Banbridge at 12/1, Radjhani Express at 25/1, Bleu Berry at 28/1, Alfie Sherrin at 25/1, Son Of Flicka at 66/1 and Binocular at 22/1.
Some fantastic winners there and it all adds up to an unparalleled record at Cheltenham.
So if you’re looking for our number one Cheltenham tipster, look no further than the Bet Alchemist.
Key factors to consider when choosing a Cheltenham tipster
With so many tipsters out there, it can be overwhelming to choose the right one.
However, by considering a few key factors, you can narrow down your options and find a Cheltenham tipster that suits your needs.
First and foremost, evaluate the track record and success rate of the tipster.
This is why we conduct thorough reviews here on the site, recording all tips exactly as they are given out with nothing fudged or hidden. So you can see exactly how well a tipster has performed and inspect their results in detail.
We verify many tipsters’ records (such as those in our top 5 list above) on a continual basis, which in some cases is a number of years now. This allows us to see whether a tipster is just a flash in the pan or can actually beat the bookies over the long term.
Any reputable tipster should have a transparent record of their performance, with all results recorded and verified independently by a review site such as this.
Next, consider the expertise and knowledge of the tipster.
Do they have a deep understanding of horse racing, specifically the Cheltenham Festival? Look for someone who has a proven track record at Cheltenham and understands the intricacies of this prestigious event.
Another factor to consider is the type of tips offered by the tipster. Do they focus on favorites, long shots, or each-way bets? It’s important to find a tipster whose betting strategy aligns with your preferences and risk tolerance.
Whilst most tipsters offering tips on Cheltenham will invariably be choosing horses at longer odds due to the nature of races at Cheltenham, with large fields and open betting heats, some have higher strike rates than others and focus more on the top end the market.
So it is worth considering issues such as strike rate and the odds tipped at when deciding which tipster you wish to follow.
By considering these key factors, you can narrow down your search and find a Cheltenham tipster who will give you the edge you need for successful betting.
How to use Cheltenham tips effectively to improve your betting strategy
Having access to Cheltenham tips is one thing, but using them effectively to improve your betting strategy is another.
Here are some tips on how to make the most of the insights provided by Cheltenham tipsters:
1. Manage your bankroll: A key aspect of successful betting is managing your bankroll effectively. Set a budget for your Cheltenham bets and stick to it. Avoid chasing losses or betting more than you can afford. By practicing responsible bankroll management, you can minimize risks and increase your chances of long-term success.
2. Diversify your bets: Don’t put all your eggs in one basket. Consider splitting your betting bank between more than one tipster, to spread your risk rather than just relying on one tipster to have a winning week.
3. Track your results: Keep a record of your bets and their outcomes. This will allow you to analyze your performance over time and see which tipsters and bets performed the best. By tracking your results, you can fine-tune your betting strategy and make adjustments as needed.
By using Cheltenham tips effectively and incorporating them into a well-rounded betting strategy, you can improve your chances of making winning bets and boosting your bankroll.
Understanding different types of Cheltenham tips – favorites, long shots, and each-way bets
When it comes to Cheltenham tips, there are various types of bets that tipsters may recommend. Understanding these different types can help you make more informed betting decisions and maximize your chances of winning.
One common type of Cheltenham tip is the favorite. This refers to the horse that is expected to win the race based on their previous form, jockey skills, and other factors.
Favorites often have the shortest odds, meaning they are considered the most likely to win. Betting on favorites can be a safer option, but the potential winnings may be lower.
On the other end of the spectrum are long shots. These are horses with longer odds, meaning they are considered less likely to win.
However, if a long shot does win, the potential winnings can be substantial. Betting on long shots can be riskier, but it can also be highly rewarding.
Another type of Cheltenham tip is the each-way bet. This is a combination of a win bet and a place bet.
With an each-way bet, you are essentially betting on a horse to either win the race or place in the top few positions. Each-way bets provide a bit of insurance, as you can still win if your chosen horse doesn’t come first but finishes in a place.
Some tipsters like to provide exotic bets such as accumulators or Yankee bets for the festival.
These involve needing multiple horses to win or place in their races and are typically at huge odds, offering the potential of a massive win. These bets aren’t for the faint-hearted however and should normally be approached with small stakes, as they have a low chance of success.
Understanding the different types of Cheltenham tips can help you diversify your betting strategy and increase your chances of winning. By considering favorites, long shots, each-way and exotic bets, you can make more informed decisions based on your risk tolerance and potential winnings.

Top 11 All-Time Best Horse Racing Tipsters

Whether they’re well-known names or hidden gems, these tipsters have proven their worth through thorough testing and years of experience.
Curious to see who made the cut? Read on!
And hey, if you think we missed someone, don’t hesitate to let us know. We’re always open to your insights.
11. Steve Lewis Hamilton
Steve Lewis Hamiltonis a veteran in the horse racing tipping world, with a reputation that speaks for itself.
His primary service, the “Private Service,” has racked up 875 points in profit since 2008, with a solid 20% return on investment (ROI).
His other service, the “Exchange Service,” has added over 420 points since 2010, bringing his total to around 1,200 points in profit.
The Observer once called his work “a master class in tactical, value betting” after following his tips for a year, where he earned an impressive 113 points in profit.
Secrets of his success: In Thoughts and Secrets of Successful Punters, Hamilton says he forms “tissues” which are basically his own view of the prices horses in a race should be. To do this, he first reduces races to contenders and non-contenders.
Then “it is down to form study and looking at how the race will be run, the conditions and who it will suit and then allocating prices based on this.”
10. Tom Segal (Pricewise)
No roundup of top racing tipsters would be comprehensive without recognizing Tom Segal, widely known as Pricewise from the Racing Post.
His tips are so popular that odds often drop quickly after they’re released, especially for long-shot bets.
While the Racing Post doesn’t always publish his full track record, other sources confirm he consistently delivers a 20% ROI.
His focus? Recognizing undervalued trainers and jockeys and rewatching past races to find overlooked opportunities.
Talking about master trainer John Gosden, Segal comments “He’s got 150 horses, he’s won this race countless times before and he knows exactly the level of horse he needs to win it again. So for Gosden to be running it is a tip in itself. You might get 10/1 about a horse when it should really be a 5/1 shot.”
Commenting on jockeys in Thoughts and Secrets of Successful Punters, he asserts “I strongly believe they are the most important factor in any race after the ability of the horse.”
Finally, much like just about all of his colleagues on this list, Tom says he watches past races many times over to find his selections.
9. Laurence Lambourn – Equine Investments
Laurence Lambourn is the brain behind Equine Investments, a service that’s been delivering outstanding results since 2003.
With over 1,000 points in profit and a stellar 30% ROI, it’s no wonder this service switched to a performance-based subscription model to manage demand.
However, excellence comes at a price. The current subscription fee is £825 per cycle, with each cycle representing 30 points of profit.
Considering its consistent and remarkable performance over two decades, Equine Investments is undoubtedly one of the best in the business.
Secrets of his success: In the highly educational Thoughts and Secrets of Successful Punters, Laurencesays he uses the Racing Systems Builder database to generate his positive and negative factors about horses, which he then uses to get the shape of a race. Laurence spends hours studying videos of past races.
On advice for us punters, Laurence says “it’s all about the prices. Perhaps try and come up with prices for your fancies and stick with them. If the prices don’t appear then leave the bet.”
Sounds like good advice to us from one of the very best in the game.
8. Hugh Taylor
Hugh Taylor, the leading tipster at At the Races, boasts an undeniable track record that speaks volumes about his skill.
He has achieved an incredible 3,324 points in profit with a 30% ROI over more than 12 years, one of the most outstanding records of any tipster.
However, there is a slight caveat to this remarkable success: earning profits solely by following Hugh’s tips can be quite challenging.
This is because the selections are backed heavily as soon as they are released. We observed this during our review of Hugh Taylor Tips.
Hugh himself acknowledges this challenge, advising followers to only back his tips if they can secure 80% of the recommended price.
Secrets of his success: Hugh says the main tool he uses to analyse form is Computer Timeform, commenting “it remains an excellent guide to the merits of past performances and it provides a very good overview of a race in terms of ratings as well as the interpretative comments on each horse’s past performances.”
In addition Taylor says he also uses the Query feature of Raceform Interactive for statistical purposes, but that his most potent weapon is studying videos of past races.
7. Racing Consultants
Racing Consultants, led by Rory Delargy, has been impressing bettors since 2015.
With over 1,100 points in profit and a consistently strong ROI, this service is one of the top contenders in the tipping world.
Rory, a respected figure in racing media, provides detailed write-ups with each tip, showcasing his deep knowledge and commitment to the sport.
During our initial trial, the service delivered an impressive 135 points profit at advised prices. That came at an exceptional ROI of 34%.
Since then, Racing Consultants has maintained its excellence and continued to flourish. The total accumulated profits now exceed an impressive 1,100 points, solidifying its status among the elite group of top-tier tipsters.
In our follow-up trial, the results have also impressed with 91 points profit made, another strong profit as in our initial trial.
The tips are exclusively provided by Rory Delargy, a well-known figure in racing circles due to his roles as a writer for the Irish Daily Star.
He has also been a commentator on Timeform Radio and William Hill Racing Radio.
While David Massey was previously involved in providing tips, Rory has been the sole tipster since 2017.
The results have not only remained consistently strong but have arguably improved since Rory become sole tipster.
Rory’s commitment to in-depth analysis has undeniably paid off, establishing Racing Consultants as one of the most reputable tipsters around.
6. Always Back Winners
Always Back Winners is a tipster service with a catchy name and a straightforward approach that hits the mark.
The service focuses on value bets at odds of 8/1 or higher.

Gary, the man behind the tips, uses his insider knowledge as an ex-owner to find “triers” ready to perform on the day.
Over the course of our live trial, the service delivered a commendable 105 points in profit, boasting a 21% ROI and an impressive 42% strike rate.
Following our trial period, they have sustained their profitable run, adding an additional 150 points profit to date.

Remarkably, they have achieved the £10,000 target three times—in 2015, 2017, and 2020—demonstrating exceptional performance.
While this tipster may fly under the radar, Always Back Winners undoubtedly deserves more recognition and acclaim.
With their consistent profits and impressive track record, they unquestionably rank among the top racing tipsters in the business.

The average monthly profit has consistently been robust, averaging just under £293 per month at £25 per point stakes.
The service also displayed favorable results during our live trial, generating 269 points of profit.
The Outside Edge, with its successful track record and consistent profitability, emerges as a tipster service worthy of consideration.
4. Loves Racing
Loves Racing,led by its founder Brett Love, has earned a strong reputation as a top-performing tipster service, living up to its name.

What sets Loves Racing apart is its user-friendly approach. Bets are typically provided on weekends or during major racing events, making it easier for followers to stay engaged compared to other tipsters.
In summary, Loves Racing has established itself as a top-tier tipster service, known for landing big winners and delivering consistent results.
3. Racing Intelligence
Racing Intelligence stands out in our rankings by taking a unique and unconventional approach compared to most other tipsters.
Rather than relying on traditional methods like form analysis, this service sets itself apart by drawing tips from an “insider” working at a top UK bookmaker.
Although claims of having “inside information” can often be met with skepticism, our live trial confirmed Racing Intelligence’s claims with impressive results.
The service delivered an exceptional 192 points profit at advised prices and 76 points profit at Betfair SP during our trial.
Looking at its long-term performance, Racing Intelligence is on par with the industry’s best.
It has generated over 1,000 points profit at advised prices and 500 points profit at Betfair SP.
With such outstanding results across both advised prices and BSP, Racing Intelligence rightfully earns its spot high on our list.
2. Bet Alchemist
Under the expert guidance of Nicky Doyle, The Bet Alchemist has consistently proven its worth over the years.
Since launching in 2012, this service has amassed a total profit of just over 830 points.
This breaks down to an impressive average annual profit of 72 points, which translates to around £3,620 in profit with £50 stakes.

To assess a tipster’s reliability, consider their historical performance, including profit margins, strike rates, and return on investment (ROI).
Additionally, looking at reviews from trusted review sites that have verified their results and feedback from other bettors can provide a clearer picture of their credibility.
Keep in mind that even the most reliable tipster cannot guarantee wins, as horse racing outcomes are inherently unpredictable.
4. How can I verify a tipster’s performance?
To verify a tipster’s performance, review their historical results and profitability.
Look for transparent records of past tips, including the odds and results.
It’s also helpful to read independent reviews – including from sites like this that independently verify (or “proof”) results – and testimonials from other users to gauge reliability and effectiveness.
5. Can I make a profit from horse racing betting?
Yes, it is possible to make a profit from horse racing betting, especially if you follow the advice of a successful tipster.
However, betting always carries risks, and it’s important to bet responsibly and not to rely solely on betting for income. Past results do not guarantee future performance.
6. Are high odds always a sign of a good tipster?
Not necessarily. While high odds can indicate value, they don’t guarantee success.
A good tipster focuses on finding value bets that offer the best chance of generating a profit, regardless of the odds.
Consistent profitability and a solid strike rate are more important indicators of a tipster’s quality.
7. How do I choose the right tipster for me?
Choosing the right tipster involves considering your betting goals and preferences.
Look for tipsters whose strategies align with your approach, whether it’s focusing on high odds, specific racing events, or frequency of bet.
Evaluate their track record, ease of use, and how well their tips fit with your betting style.
8. What should I expect from a tipster service?
A reputable tipster service should provide clear and actionable tips, with advised odds that are available from multiple bookmakers at the time of posting. Some tipsters also include detailed reasoning behind each selection, but this is not essential.
You should expect regular updates, transparency in results, and a straightforward process for receiving bets.
Good customer support and educational resources are also beneficial.
9. How much does it cost to follow a horse racing tipster?
The cost of following a horse racing tipster can vary depending on the service and the level of access you choose.
Some tipsters offer free tips or trial periods, while others require a subscription fee.
Subscription costs can range from a few pounds per month to several hundred pounds annually, but are typically priced at around £25-£100 per month.
It’s important to consider the potential value and return on investment before committing to a tipster’s service.
10. What is ROI in horse racing betting?
ROI, or Return on Investment, is a metric used to measure the profitability of betting activities.
It is calculated by dividing the net profit by the total amount wagered and then multiplying by 100 to get a percentage.
For example, if you made a profit of £100 from £1,000 in total bets, your ROI would be 10%. A higher ROI indicates better profitability.
11. What’s the difference between Sportsbook and Betfair SP betting?
Sportsbook betting involves placing bets through traditional bookmakers, where odds are fixed at the time of the bet.
Betfair SP (Starting Price) betting, on the other hand, refers to betting at the starting price set by the market on Betfair, a betting exchange.
Betfair SP odds can fluctuate until the race starts, reflecting the market’s consensus.
Sportsbook odds offer certainty at the time of the bet, while Betfair SP can offer potential for better value if the odds improve before the race begins.
12. What should I do if a tipster has a losing streak?
It’s important to remember that even the best tipsters experience losing streaks. Having a sufficient betting bank to start with is crucial.
Also, assess the tipster’s long-term performance and avoid making hasty decisions based on short-term losses. Stick to a consistent betting strategy and never chase losses.
13. Can I use multiple tipsters at the same time?
Yes, you can use multiple tipsters to diversify your betting strategy.
Just make sure to manage your bankroll effectively – with for example a separate bankroll for each tipster – and keep track of each tipster’s performance.

The world of greyhound racing is fast-paced, exhilarating, and brimming with opportunities—not just for the dogs but also for sharp bettors.
If you’re eager to turn that thrill into profit, finding a reliable greyhound tipster is crucial. With countless options available, knowing where to begin can be challenging. That’s where we come in.
We’ve done the hard work, delving into the industry to identify the top greyhound tipsters.
From seasoned professionals with a solid track record to emerging talents making a name for themselves, we’ve compiled all the information you need to choose wisely.
Let’s dive in and explore the leading greyhound tipsters who can help you place smarter bets.
What Makes a Good Greyhound Tipster?
Before we reveal our top picks, it’s important to understand what sets a great greyhound tipster apart from the rest.
At its essence, greyhound tipping revolves around predicting race outcomes—and doing so consistently. However, it’s not just about picking winners.
An exceptional greyhound tipster possesses a deep understanding of the sport. This includes expertise in different tracks, the impact of weather conditions on races, and detailed knowledge of the dogs themselves.
Yet, even expertise isn’t enough. A great tipster must back it up with a proven track record—demonstrating consistent success and delivering profitable tips over time.
Equally important is transparency. The best tipsters are honest about their wins and losses, providing tips supported by clear reasoning and analysis. This openness builds trust and ensures you’re receiving advice that’s both reliable and credible.
Key Points About Betting on Greyhounds
Before we delve into our list of top greyhound tipsters, it’s worth noting a few key points about betting on greyhounds, which differs in several ways from betting on horse racing:
Smaller Fields: Greyhound races typically involve up to six runners, resulting in lower odds compared to horse racing, where fields are often much larger. However, the smaller field size simplifies race analysis and makes it easier to identify potential winners.
Limited Liquidity: Greyhound racing generally has less liquidity than horse racing, especially earlier in the day. Even a modest increase in betting interest for a specific dog can cause significant odds movement. To manage this, it’s wise to maintain accounts with multiple bookmakers to distribute your bets effectively.
Using Betfair: For those without access to several bookmaker accounts, Betfair is a solid alternative. However, it’s important to note that liquidity on Betfair is usually low until close to race time, making early bets more challenging. While betting with Best Odds Guaranteed (BOG) offered by many bookmakers often provides better long-term value, Betfair remains a practical option for many bettors.

Greyhound Racing Lingo

Trap: The starting box from which the dogs are released.

Tennis is a global sport with millions of fans watching every week.
For many the thrill is increased by the chance to win big through betting on matches especially with the best tennis tips from top tipsters.
To win at tennis betting you need the right tips and guidance. That’s where tipsters come in; they are experts who study match-ups and predict the outcome.
But with so many tipsters out there how do you find the good ones?
Well, we are here to help. We have done the research and live testing on our site to find the best tennis tipsters.
While there may not be as many tennis tipsters as football or horse racing, in this case it’s quality over quantity.
With so much information online and on TV, tipsters have all the tools they need to make accurate predictions.
In this article we will show you the 5 best tennis tipsters based on our extensive research and testing.
Whether you are a seasoned punter or new to tennis betting join us as we look into the world of top tennis tipsters!
What are tipsters and why do they matter?
Tipsters are experts who study and predict the outcome of sports events.
In tennis betting tipsters focus on providing tips and forecasts for upcoming matches and tournaments.
They use various methods and strategies to produce their tennis tips such as player performance, match history, head-to-head records and surface specialisation to deliver predictions.
Tipsters are important because their ability to make profits over time is the measure of success and makes them valuable to have on your side.
They also save you time and effort by doing the form study and match analysis so you can use their expertise without having to do the research yourself.
What to Look For When Evaluating a Tennis Tipster
When evaluating a tennis tipster you should look at:
Strike Rate: This measures the percentage of winning bets a tipster has made and gives you an idea of the accuracy of their tips. For tennis tipsters the strike rate is usually between 40-60%. This will help you know how often you will win and guide you on how much to stake per bet.
Return on Investment (ROI): ROI measures a tipster’s profit by showing the profit per 100 units staked. For example an ROI of 30% means a £30 profit for every £100 staked. In tennis betting an ROI of 5% is good and above 10% long term is excellent.
Bank Growth: This shows the increase in your bank over a period of time. For example, if a £1,000 bank grows by 50% in a year it will be £1,500. Bank growth shows a tipster’s performance over a certain period of time and how much your bank could grow.
Longevity: This measures a tipster’s performance over a long period of time. Consistency over time shows a tipster’s expertise and ability to beat the bookmakers. Some tipsters may produce results in the short-term but only a few can make profits year in year out.
By looking at these metrics you will get a full picture of a tennis tipster’s record, which can help you decide if they are reliable and worth following.

How to Win with Tennis Betting Tips
Winning with tennis betting tips requires a combination of understanding the tips, managing your bankroll and making informed decisions.
Here are the key steps to win with tennis betting tips:
Understand the Tip: Before you place a bet make sure you understand the tip. Look for detailed analysis and explanation from the tipster including recommended odds and stake size so you can make an informed decision. This will give you confidence in the bet and to help stick to the tipster’s staking plan.
Manage Your Bankroll: Set a budget for your tennis betting and stick to it. Don’t chase losses or bet more than you can afford to lose. Consider using a staking plan to manage your bets and minimise risk. A common approach is to bet a fixed percentage of your bankroll (e.g. 1-2%) on each tip which will protect your bank in the long run.
Diversify Your Bets: Don’t put all your eggs in one basket. Diversify your bets across different markets and tournaments to minimise risk and maximise returns. For example you can bet on match winners, set winners and handicap markets across different ATP and WTA events.
Stay Current: Keep up to date with the latest news and happenings in the tennis world. This will help you make more informed decisions and be ahead of the game. Follow player injuries, form and other factors that can affect the match.
Use Multiple Tipsters: Use multiple tipsters to get different opinions and perspectives. This will help you make more informed decisions and increase your chances of winning. By comparing tips from different sources you can see what they have in common and make a more confident bet.
Monitor Your Results: Track your progress and adjust as you go. Use a betting journal to log your bets and review your performance. This will help you see which tipsters and strategies are profitable and make changes.
By following these guidelines you will have a better chance of succeeding with your tennis betting.
Remember, successful tennis betting is based on informed decisions, disciplined bankroll management and continuous learning.
Tennis Betting 101

Risk Management Tips for Betting with Tennis Tipsters
Betting on tennis can be fun and profitable but you need to manage risk to protect your bankroll and long term success.
Here’s some risk management tips to consider when following tennis tipsters:
1. Set a Budget
Set a budget for your betting and stick to it. This budget should be an amount you’re happy to lose as there’s no guarantees in betting.
Allocate a specific amount of your bankroll to each bet so you don’t blow your funds too quickly.
2. Bet Proportionally
Don’t bet big on one tip. Bet proportionally where the size of each bet is a percentage of your total bankroll.
For example you might bet 1-5% of your bankroll on each tip. This will manage risk and prevent big losses from one bad bet.
3. Track Your Results
Keep a record of all your bets, including the tipster, the type of bet, the stake and the outcome.
Review these records regularly to see which tipsters are offering the best value and to see patterns in your betting. This data will help you make better decisions in the future.
4. Know the Tipster’s Strategy and Metrics
Before following any tipster make sure you know their betting strategy and how they come up with their predictions.
Some tipsters will focus on high-risk, high-reward bets while others will go for a more conservative approach which will get more winners. Match your betting style with the tipster’s methodology so it suits your risk tolerance.
5. Manage Your Expectations
Be realistic about the returns and understand even the best tipsters will have losing runs.
Don’t chase losses by betting bigger to recover previous losses – this will lead to bigger financial losses.
6. Use Betting Exchanges and Odds Comparison Sites
Make sure you’re getting the best value from your bets by using betting exchanges and odds comparison sites.
Betting exchanges like Betfair allow you to bet against other bettors rather than traditional bookmakers and often get better odds.
Odds comparison sites aggregate odds from multiple bookmakers so you can find the best prices for your bets. Check these sites regularly so you’re always betting at the best odds.
7. Think Long Term
Betting success should be judged over the long term not short term. While it’s easy to get caught up in immediate results, long term profitability requires patience and a strategy.
Don’t get swayed by one winning or losing streak and instead look at the tipster’s performance over several months or even years.
By looking at the bigger picture you can manage your bankroll and make decisions that will support long term success in tennis betting.
8. Bet Responsibly
Always gamble responsibly and don’t let betting interfere with other areas of your life. Set limits on your betting and seek help if you find yourself struggling to control your gambling.
By following these risk management tips you can protect your bankroll, you will make better betting decisions and enjoy your tennis betting more.
Additional Resources for Tennis Betting
To get the most out of tennis betting and tips from tennis tipsters:
1. Betting Calculators: Use betting calculators to calculate returns, bet value and bankroll management.
Tools like the Betfair Odds Calculator or a Kelly Criterion Calculator will help you make better betting decisions.
2. Statistical Databases: Access statistical databases for player and match statistics.
Sites like Flashscore and ATP/WTA official sites have loads of information on player performance, head to head records and surface specific stats.
3. Betting Apps: Download apps for betting and tracking your bets.
Apps like Oddschecker or OddsPortal have real time odds comparisons and apps like Betfair and Smarkets have access to betting exchanges.
4. Forums and Communities: Join betting forums and communities to share tips and strategies with other bettors.
Platforms like the Betfair Forum allows you to discuss tips, strategies and experiences with other enthusiasts.
5. Educational Content: Learn more about betting strategies and sports analysis with educational resources.
Sites like Sky Sports Tennis and books on sports betting will give you in depth knowledge and the latest tennis news.
Using these resources will help you make better decisions, optimise your betting and ultimately win more with tennis betting.
