50% Off Top Tipster – For Life!

We have a great offer for you here at Honest Betting Reviews. 

One of the very best tipsters we have reviewed – Win Form Pro – is offering 50% off their subscription fees – for life!

We reviewed this service a couple of months ago and gave it top marks. It produced a highly commendable  56 points profit in 3 months at Betfair SP at a phenomenal 42% ROI.

You can read our full review here.

The graph from the trial made very good viewing – just nice steady profit!

Win Form Pro Profit Graph

And since our review ended the service has continued to do well, notching another three profitable months, adding 40 more points to the bank.

Since the service began they have never had a losing month – that’s 28 consecutive months of profit.

To £100 stakes they have made over £75,000 at Betfair SP, or £7,500 to just £10 stakes.

Even at the normal prices we were happy to recommend this service and thought it represented great value, but at half price for life it seems like a steal.

So where as the fees are normally £39.50 per month or £89.50 per quarter, you now only have to pay £19.75 per month or £44.75 per quarter.

We come across dozens of tipsters here at Honest Betting Reviews and the vast majority of them don’t make a profit. 

So when we come across one as good as Win Form Pro, we have no hesitation in recommending it and particularly when they have a special offer going.

We understand the offer will close in a few days so best to get on board at the lower prices while you still can.

Tennis Trading League – Results Update

With Wimbledon in full swing and enjoying sweltering temperatures we thought it would be a good time for a results update on one of our tennis services.

The service is question is Tennis Trading League from Patrick Ross. Although the title suggests this is a trading service, Patrick also provide betting tips for tennis matches and it is that part of the service we are testing. 

We are just over two months into the trial, so how has it been going?

Well not too great unfortunately. We are a shade under 4 points down so far after 117 bets. So not too bad, but disappointing to be running a loss after two months.

You can view full results here.

A small silver lining is that Patrick has made a good start to Wimbledon, with six winning bets out of seven, so let’s hope it leads to a revival in fortunes between now and the end of the trial.

We will update results with our final review towards the end of the month, but in the meantime enjoy the rest of the Wimbledon – and stay cool!

Can Andy Murray Reign At Wimbledon Once Again?

The French Open threw up a big surprise as Stan Wawrinka beat the world number one Novak Djokovic in the final, but things are expected to be business as usual as we edge closer to Wimbledon. The grass court season is upon us once again, and defending champion Djokovic is predicted to retain the title and lift his 9th Grand Slam trophy, no mean feat. Standing in his way will be the usual suspects, and the player with the biggest chance of defeating him could be our own Andy Murray.

Murray usually performs well at Wimbledon, but the difference this year is that he’ll be going in with added confidence after performing well at the French Open. He had an epic five set battle with Djokovic in the semi-final, a match he looked very close to winning at one point, and that will surely give him some momentum going into a tournament he has traditionally done well in. And this is all before we mention his recent triumph at Queens, something that surely bodes well for the summer ahead.

At the time of writing Djokovic is the favourite with the bookies, and you can find him priced at 7/5 at Bwin. Don’t rule out Murray, though, as he is a lot stronger on grass and if they meet later on in the tournament then the Scot will fancy his chances. He’s available at 10/3 from William Hill to get the job done and lift the Wimbledon trophy for the second time in his career.

Roger Federer’s career appears to be winding down now, but the Swiss legend is still a very formidable opponent for anyone, and on his day he can conjure up the magic to beat the best. Grass is his most successful surface, and you can never count out a man who has won Wimbledon on seven separate occasions, so if you fancy him to rediscover his old form then you can find him at 13/2 from Coral and Unibet.

Unfortunately things aren’t looking so great for another legend of the sport, as Rafael Nadal is struggling to string a run of wins together. He’s now ranked 10th in the world, his lowest position in a decade, and lost at the French Open for the first time since 2009. His preparation for the grass court season didn’t start off too well either, as he crashed out of Queens in the first round to the unseeded Ukrainian Alexandr Dolgopolov. It doesn’t sound good for Nadal, and his odds of 15/1 from Bwin might not be enough to tempt you.

When we look away from the big four there are a few outsiders who might be worth a flutter, and one that is catching our eye is Milos Raonic at 50/1 from Winner. The Canadian has a big, powerful serve which gives him an advantage on grass courts, and he performed well at Queens earlier in the month. Another outside tip could be Marin Cilic, a strong server who got to the quarter-finals of last year’s tournament. He’s also the US Open champion, so his odds of 66/1 from Sportingbet appear to be very generous.

Elsewhere, 40/1 from 888bet for Thomas Berdych to be the victor doesn’t sound too bad, considering he reached the final of Wimbledon back in 2010 and the 29 year old remains a solid performer today. If you’re interested in some special bets then William Hill is doing a few, including 8/1 odds on a full day’s play being washed out, not including centre court. If you’re feeling really quirky then the same bookmakers is also offering a price of 33/1 on the official caterers for the event running out of champagne or strawberries!

Djokovic is imperious but Murray has the backing of the home crowd, and Federer will always be dangerous. However you’re betting, Wimbledon looks set to be another enticing tournament full of quality tennis.

Royal Ascot Betting Tips – Thursday

It’s Ladies’ Day at Royal Ascot and the weather looks magnificent for what should be a cracking day’s racing.

Whilst the likes of Gok Wan will be out surveying the outfits on display this afternoon, we will be concentrating on the more important business of Thursday’s racing. 

Here is our preview of Day Three at the Royal meeting. If you want more tips like this, we have completed a top 10 list of free racing tips here. 

2.30 – Norfolk Stakes – Group 2 over 5f

This is a race for 2 year olds and consequently there is very little form to go on, with most of the runners only having run once or twice.

According to the bookies this should be a two-horse race between King of Rooks (currently around 11/8) and Log Out Island who has been backed in heavily this morning from 5/2 into around 15/8. King of Rooks won the National Stakes at Sandown in impressive fashion and that form has worked out well with the second horse that day Buratino winning not only the Coventry Stakes on Tuesday but also the Woodcote at Epsom. 

Log Out Island has only run once, but that was a course and distance win here at Ascot. However, it is Jazz Legend who appeals at 20/1, having won a useful maiden at Haydock and may be worth a place interest here.

 Selections: 1 pt win King of Rooks 11/8 

                      0.5pts e/w Jazz Legend 20/1

 

3.05 – Tercentenary Stakes – Group 3 over 1m2f

The favourite is Time Test at a best priced 5/2 and this horse won an impressive Newbury in the London Gold Cup. The horse who won this race a year ago (Cannock Chase) also won that handicap so it is a good omen. However, the question remains how well this horse will step up into group company from handicap races.

There will be much rejoicing if the Queen’s horse, Peacock, wins the race and this Richard Hannon trained colt was only narrowly beaten by the Derby Winner Golden Horn two runs agao so will have a real chance here.

Selections: 1pt win Time Test 5/2

                     0.5pts e/w Peacock 6/1

 

3.40 – Ribblesdale Stakes – Group 2 over 1m4f

The strong favourite for this race is Pleascach who is currently priced around the 11/8 mark. The 1,000 Guineas winner will take all the beating if she can stay the extra half mile. She has recently been bought by Godolphin who fancy their chances of landing a big prize with this one.

Better value may be found lower down in the betting however and Curvy fits the bill. A progressive horse and half-sister to Thakafaat who won this race when it was held at York 10 years ago. She has won her last three races, the most recent of which was a Group 3 at the Curragh so has a real chance of upsetting the formbook here. 

Selection:  1pt e/w Curvy at 7/1

 

4.20 – Gold Cup – Group One over 2m4f

The big race of the day is the Gold Cup, a marathon race over 2 and a half miles. As you would expect, stamina is the key and conditions will play an important factor.

It is expected to be good to firm today at Ascot, which may not suit favourite Forgotten Rules, who would prefer a bit of give in the ground. 

A horse who may prefer the ground is Kingfisher, who faces a step up in trip but is trained by Aiden O’Brien who has won this race six times in the last 10 years. Winner of its last race and at 10/1, this has to represent good each-way value.

Another with a decent claim is Mizzou, who has won at Ascot before and has the pedigree to triumph here too. The ground will not be too much of a concern and at 11/2 has a sound chance.

Selections: 1pt e/w Kingfisher 10/1

                     1pt win Mizzou 11/2

 

5.00 – Britannia Stakes – Class 2 Heritage Handicap over 1m

A wide open race where the favourite is 9/1 in the shape of Portage. With 30 runners listed to line up, these types of race can be something of a lottery and it depends a lot on how the horses group that can determine the outcome.

So probably best to keep stakes low for this one but it could be worth siding with Make It Up at 20/1. Apprentice jockey Edward Greatrex claims 7lbs which puts this horse in a very nice weight and looks to come on for its previous run at Epsom.

Selection: 0.5pts e/w Make It Up at 20/1

 

5.35 – King George V Stakes – Class 2 Handicap over 1m2f

Another open looking race in the last as Dissolution claims favouritism at 7/2 and has been heavily backed this morning. It is likely the step up in trip will be appreciated and with some useful handicap form including two wins and two seconds in its last four, has every chance here.

At a larger price, Belgrade could be worth an interest at 25/1. A very impressive winner at Bath in its last run when it won going away, this looks to be an under the radar sort for Richard Hannon and with Richard Hughes booked, expect a big run.

Selections: 1pt win Dissolution at 7/2

                     1pt e/w Belgrade at 25/1
