The Bet Professor – Full Review

 

The Bet Professor is a horse racing tipster that operates under the Punt Hub umbrella, and after an extended review period, it has delivered very impressive results.

With a total profit of +292 points at advised prices, the service has demonstrated strong profitability over the course of our trial.

This equates to an impressive 292% bank growth, meaning that a starting bank would have nearly quadrupled during the trial period.

One of the key metrics we look at is Return on Investment (ROI), and The Bet Professor has managed to maintain a solid 11% ROI, which is a very respectable return for a horse racing service over a period of more than two years.

This suggests that the selections consistently find value, which is a crucial factor for long-term betting success.

Bet Volume and Strike Rate

The service provides a manageable 1-2 bets per day, which makes it easy to follow compared to some tipsters that require placing dozens of bets daily.

The strike rate of 16% is on the lower side, which is typical for a service that focuses on bigger-priced selections. This means there will be losing streaks, so patience and a disciplined staking plan are essential.

Bookmaker vs. Betfair SP Performance

One notable finding from our review is that The Bet Professor performs significantly better at advised prices than at Betfair Starting Price (BSP).

Throughout the trial, we observed a consistent disparity between advised prices and BSP, with the latter lagging well behind.

In fact, Betfair SP followers would have suffered a loss of 66 points, whereas those taking advised prices at bookmakers have enjoyed substantial profits.

This suggests that the service is finding strong closing line value (CLV), meaning odds tend to shorten after selections are tipped, a positive indicator of an edge over the market.

However, it also means that access to multiple bookmaker accounts is necessary to get the best possible returns.

We are also being more mindful these days of price availability and whether those with bookie accounts can achieve the advised prices. 

For the majority of our trial most of the tips were sent out the night before racing, when markets are thin and it can be tough to get bets on.

Over the last few months they have switched to the morning of racing which is a welcome change but it remains to be seen if they can maintain the previous profit levels now they are tipping in the morning. 

Overall we are happy to award the service a PASSED rating as it delivered impressive and consistent results over the course of more than two years. 

However, it does come with the slight caveat that bookie accounts are needed and for most of the trial tips were sent out the night before racing. 

 

Service Breakdown

Ease of use: The selections are sent out e-mail, as we say on the morning of racing these days. There is plenty of time to get the bets on and with around 1-2 bets per day on average the workload is pretty manageable. 

Availability of prices: Price availability was a bit of an issue during most of our trial, as discussed above regarding tips being sent out the evening before racing. Often prices would contract quite considerably by the time of the race. This is less of an issue now that tips are sent in the morning but it remains to be seen if the previous profit levels can be maintained.   

Strike rate: The strike rate for our trial was a little on the low side at 16% but we didn’t experience any extended drawdowns during our trial which was good. 

Advised Betting Bank: A 100 point betting bank is recommended for following the service. That seems fairly reasonable to us and was never in jeopardy during our trial. 

Subscription costs: The subscription costs at the time of writing are £10 for first month then £25 per month or £60 quarter if paying by Paypal or £30 per month if paying by credit card. 

 

OVERALL VERDICT: PASSED

Overall, The Bet Professor has produced impressive results and passes our review. The profit of +292 points, combined with strong bank growth and a solid ROI, makes it a very promising tipster service.

The main caveat is that it is not viable at BSP, so bookmaker accounts are required to follow the selections successfully and most of the profits were made from early prices the evening before racing.

So we’ll have to see if the results hold up in the long run now they are taking morning prices, but certainly up to now the results have been impressive overall.

The Bet Professor – Results Update

9th September 2024

There’s been a slight dip for horse racing tipster The Bet Professor lately, with a loss of 16 points made at advised prices since our last update.

However they are still 260 points up at advised prices for our trial overall. 

You can view full results here.

The Betfair SP results continue to trail well behind those at advised prices, with a loss of 34 points made since our last update and 74 points lost for our trial to date at BSP.

So we would not recommend following this tipster at Betfair SP – it is only to follow them at the bookmakers. 

However, the results do indicate they are achieving strong CLV (closing line value) which is a good sign of being able to find value in their selections.

It’s been a good start to our trial of The Bet Professor, with a profit of 33 points made so far to advised prices.

It’s a different picture at Betfair SP however, as they are actually 57 points down for our trial to date at BSP.

So it’s not looking like the service is practical to follow at BSP based on what we’ve seen so far. 

It’s also worth noting that there are a large number of tips with this service – we’ve already proofed over 600! So you’re looking at around 10 bets per day which is worth bearing in mind if you’re thinking of following the service.

The Bet Professor – New Review

9th August 2022

We are starting a new trial today of a horse racing tipster called The Bet Professor.

Based at the Punt Hub stable of tipsters, they are supposedly “hard at work solving the betting equations and know exactly how to bring you a profit.”

Looking at the results achieved to date, they look pretty good at it too!

Having been tipping for just over nine months now, they have delivered an excellent 288 points profit so far according to the results on the Punt Hub website.

That has been achieved with a return on investment of 22% and a strike rate of a little over 17%.

The Betfair SP profit, whilst not quite as impressive, is still decent at 62 points made so far.

One thing to bear in mind with this service if you are thinking of following it is there quite a lot of tips – often 10-15 per day, so it is more time-consuming to follow than some other tipsters. 

If they can keep producing the same kind of profit it looks like the extra effort could be worth it however. 

We actually started proofing these tips on 21st June so will record results from then. As ever results will be updated here so you can see how they are getting on. 

In the meantime you can check out The Bet Professor for yourself here.

* Just a note that the Punt Hub website is still being redeveloped which is why the info is not all complete on the page.

Golf Betting Club – Results Update

Golf tipster the Golf Betting Club has continued their good run of form lately, with a profit of 27 points made since our last update.

However, they are still 73 points down for our trial overall.  

You can view full results here.

We’d been saying for a while that just landing one big winner could turn things around and they have now done it not just once but twice, with Nick Taylor winning the Sony Open in a playoff for them at 100/1, following on from 50/1 winner Paul Waring in November.

The profits from that 100/1 winner have been somewhat eroded by other losses on the month, but they are still making steady progress on reducing the large deficit they racked up earlier on in our trial. 

Just to also note that given last year’s losses they are currently offering free membership until 30th March 2025.

Golf Betting Club – Results Update

18th December 2024

It’s been a much better time for golf tipster the Golf Betting Club lately, with a profit of 95 points made since our last update.

That means they are now 100 points down for our trial overall.  

You can view full results here.

Recent highlights include Paul Waring winning the Abu Dhabi Championship at 50/1 and Ryan Van Velzen placing at the Alfred Dunhill Championship at 350/1. 

However, things could have been so much better with Van Velzen needing a birdie up the par-5 last to win, or a par for a playoff but managing to finish with a bogey. 

The week before they also had Aldrich Potgieter at 100/1 who had a three shot lead on the back nine but somehow failed to win. 

It’s often fine margins in sports betting but it’s particularly jarring in instances like this when you’re backing 350/1 and 100/1 shots who just miss out. They can really make or break a year’s betting.

There isn’t much to say really other than that they could really do with a big winner or two…

That’s golf betting though in a nutshell – the losing streaks can be pretty savage, especially when tipping at average odds of over 100/1 as these guys do. 

It can all turn around quickly though with a big winner so fingers crossed they can land one (or two) soon.

As we so often say with golf betting, it only takes one winner at a big price to turn things around and given they tip at prices up to 300/1 and 400/1, one of those coming in really would turn things around!

Whether it’s at a huge price like that or something smaller, they could certainly do with a winner or two soon.

Golf Betting Club – New Review

14th May 2024

We are starting a new review today of a golf tipping service called the Golf Betting Club

This service is run by Duncan and Neil, two brothers hailing from Scotland. They developed a keen interest in tour predictions and golf betting during their upbringing, influenced by their father’s career as a golf journalist for renowned UK newspapers.

Their summers were often spent attending events at prestigious venues such as Loch Lomond, Gleneagles, Wentworth, and various Open Championship locations, immersing themselves in the sport.

Their journey in golf betting spans over two decades, but the inception of the Golf Betting Club occurred in March 2020, amidst the temporary halt in professional golf caused by the Coronavirus pandemic. Utilizing this hiatus, they pooled their extensive knowledge to craft free golf betting tips accessible to all.

Drawing from years of experience, they meticulously crafted over 100 player profiles of the world’s top golfers, constantly refining and expanding their database. 

This has resulted in very strong performance to date, with a profit of 779 points made so far since starting up in 2020.

That has been achieved with a return on investment (ROI) of 16%

Each year so far has been profitable, with the standout year being 2020 when they made 366 points profit.

Last year was also a good one with 167 points profit made and this year has started well too with 22 points profit made so far.

Tips are provided in the PGA, DP World and LIV tours and include both pre-tournament and in-play tips (normally between rounds). 

With a strong reputation this is a service we are looking forward to reviewing so we will kick things off (or should that be tee things off?) today.

Results will be updated here as we go along as usual so you can see how they are getting on.

In the meantime you can check out Golf Betting Club for yourself here.

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.

 

 

 

All-Weather Winners – New Review

We are starting a new review today of a horse racing service called All-Weather Winners

This comes from renowned tipster Mel Gee, who regularly visitors may be familiar with from his other services First Class Racing and Second Class Racing (although the latter has recently been discontinued). 

The latest offering from Mel focuses solely on all-weather racing, as you may have guessed. 

Results to date have been promising with over 50 points profit made since starting in March of this year.

That means anyone following the selections would have made £502 profit from small £10 stakes.

Or to £20 stakes the profit hits four figures, at £1,003.

Which is pretty damn good considering it’s a relatively high strike rate strategy, with a recommended bank of just 40 points.

Tips are sent out via Telegram and there is also a chat group for those who to wish engage with the community of followers. 

We started receiving tips on 12th December so will record results from then. Results will be updated here as usual so you can see how things are going.

In the meantime you can check out All Weather Winners for yourself here.

 

Euro Football Punter – Final Update

Just to confirm that this service has been discontinued so this will be our final update. 

The writing looked to be on the wall for a while as they had been closed to new members on the Betting Gods platform, with only existing members still receiving the tips.

However, with a loss of 29 points made over our two year review period the results were just weren’t up to scratch so we can understand the decision to wrap things up at this stage.

So we will also call it a day here and put this one in the failed/defunct pile. 

On to the next review then and hopefully a bit more luck in finding a top football tipster!

Euro Football Punter – New Review

29th November 2022

We are starting a new trial today of a footy tipster called the Euro Football Punter. 

This is a new service from the Betting Gods tipster platform and has some strong results since starting up in May 2021. 

According to the results on the Betting Gods site, they have made over 130 points profit so far, which is an impressive haul. 

That has been achieved with an excellent 67% win rate – meaning a high proportion of winning bets, something we always like to see. 

The return on investment is also good at 16%. For football services anything around 10% is considered a strong ROI so to be up at 16% with a high strike rate is notable. 

A variety of markets are utilised for the bets including match odds, first half goals and over/under 2.5 goals. 

Leagues across Europe are used, including Ireland, Belgium and Scandinavian leagues, so not the biggest leagues but it’s often these lesser leagues where value can be found as there is less focus on them and information is not so readily available. 

One of the nice things about the service is that there have been some long winning streaks – quite a few over ten and some even 16+ match winning streaks. 

It’s in those instances that the bank can really grow quickly. 

Hopefully we’ll see those kind of streaks repeated during our trial but only time will tell. As ever results will be updated here as we go along so you can see how the tips are getting on. 

In the meantime you can check out the Euro Football Punter for yourself here.

Sure Favs – New Review

3rd May 2022

We are starting a new review today of a betting service called Sure Favs.

Well that’s not strictly accurate in fact – it’s actually picking up from a review we did previously.

Sure Favs is an automated betting system from the Exponential Bet (or Expo Bet for short) suite of services and we previously took a look at it as part of a broader review of four of their systems.

Although as a whole the four systems didn’t make a profit over the course of our review, Sure Favs was the one service that did perform well, producing an excellent 167 points profit during our trial.

We have kept an eye on results since our trial ended and it has continued to perform well, as you can see from the results graph below from the main Sure Favs system:-

Sure Favs main graph

Sure Favs – Main Exchange & BSP (Straight)

So we thought it would be a good time to give Sure Favs another look and put it through a dedicated trial of its own here at HBR.

In a nutshell Sure Favs is an automated strategy that places bets automatically on your Betfair account using software called Cloud Bet Bot.

We have tested the software out extensively across a number of reviews now and it works very well, placing bets seamlessly on your Betfair account to your specified stakes, all without the need for a VPN or leaving your computer running all day. Impressive stuff.

As the name suggests, Sure Favs is about backing favourites, one horse per race according to given criteria identified by Expo Bet.

There are essentially three strategies that form part of the service:

  • Sure Favs Main
  • Sure Favs High
  • Sure Favs Foundation

It is recommended to use a 100 point bank for each.

For a bit more info about the service, here is Ryan from Expo Bet with a quick run-down:

So it should be an interesting review and one we are looking forward to given the solid long-term results this one has amassed.

As always we will update results here as we go along.

In the meantime you can check out Sure Favs from Exponential Bet for yourself here.

 

 

 

Trade on Sports: American Football Ratings & Bets – New Review

We are starting a new review today of an American football tipping service from the Trade on Sports team – also known as their “Ratings and Bets” service.

Long-term members may be familiar with Trade on Sports (or TOS for short), as it’s a platform we have sung the praises of quite a lot over the years since our original review of it back in 2019-2020.

For those who aren’t familiar with the service, TOS is a platform run by a group of professional traders & bettors and covers a range of sports including football, tennis, cricket and US sports.

There is a huge amount on offer and we covered a lot of it in our original review. We are also now separately trialing their “Pinny Bot” which is a football betting system based around price differences between Betfair and Pinnacle.

Additionally we want to take a direct look at their American football tips as the results have been very impressive.

In our original review, they made 72 points profit at a return on investment (ROI) of 22% from 327 bets. 

Last season the NFL bets made a small profit of 3 points, whilst this season they are going very well with a profit of 14 points made for the season to date.

On top of that, the NCAA (that’s college football in case you are not familiar with it) tips have also made 10 points profit for the season. 

That’s all to one point level stakes which is highly impressive when you consider how notoriously hard it is to achieve an edge over the bookies when betting on American football. 

As long-term members of TOS, we have proofed these results and can confirm their accuracy but we wanted to run a formal review to track the results in real time and keep an eye on odds availability.

So we’ll kick things off today and will report back here as usual so you can see how they are getting on. 

In the meantime you can check out Trade on Sports’ “Ratings and Bets” service for yourself here.

 

 

Football Edge – Final Update

Just to say that following our last update below, the service said they would be taking a break and reviewing things after a poor run of form, with a view to starting again at the start of the new season (’24-’25). 

Well we are a couple of months into the new season and are yet to see any tips posted. Nor have they responded to e-mails we have sent them and when trying to log in to the website it gives an error message. 

So we can only presume they have decided not to recommence the service and we will therefore put this review into abeyance. 

If they do restart the service at some point in the future we can look at recommencing our review but for the time being we will put a halt to things here.

Football Edge – Results Update

18th April 2024

The tough times continue for football betting service Football Edge, with a loss of £135 made to advised stakes since our last update.

That means they are now £1183 down for our trial overall to advised stakes. 

You can view full results here. 

It’s been a bit surprising to see the results so far as this service came into our trial with very promising long-term results. 

We’ll just have to see if they can manage to recover over the rest of our trial and make back those losses.

Football Edge – Results Update

6th March 2024

It’s been a rough start to our trial of football betting service Football Edge, with a loss of £1048 made so far to advised stakes. 

You can view full results here. 

This is a service that advises bets from across the European leagues and are mainly in the match odds and Asian handicap markets. 

They stated that they have been testing a second algorithm for the last two years which they had planned to integrate into the service at the beginning of March but in light of recent results, went live with in the last week of February.

This means that there will be a lot more selections and some of them will be backing the away team to win.

They also stated that this (i.e. February) was their worst month in four and a half years, which is what we sometimes refer to as “reviewer’s curse.” 

Hopefully it was just bad luck and they can get things going in the right direction again soon.

Football Edge – New Review

10th January 2024

We are starting a new trial today of a football service called Football Edge

It is based on a betting algorithm that identifies value in the football markets and then posts bets to members accordingly. 

They went live with the system in 2019 and the results reported on their website since then look very impressive: 

  • 2019: +£1,969
  • 2020: +£3,656
  • 2021: +£3,224
  • 2022: +£3,935
  • 2023: +£2,044

         Total: +£14,827

Each of those yearly totals is from a starting bank of £2,500 at the beginning of the year, which is reset at the end of the year. 

They say they have achieved over 120% return on investment (ROI) each year, although technically what they mean is 120% return on capital (ROC) rather than return on investment ROI.

The staking is based on the Kelly Criterion and is calculated for you on the website based on your starting bank. 

Looking at the results, some of the stakes are very hefty, with stakes at some point getting up over £350 per bet.

Most of the bets are on heavy favourites so in theory the strike rate should be high and losing streaks short, but those are still pretty big stakes. A few losses in a row could impact the bank quite considerably.

Bets are from across the European leagues and are mainly in the match odds and Asian handicap markets. Results are recorded from Betfair, which is good so hopefully it should be possible to match their official results (or close to them anyway). 

This is an intriguing service with very encouraging results so we are keen to see how it performs under live trial conditions. 

We will get things going today and will report back soon on how they are getting on.

In the meantime you can check out Football Edge for yourself here.

Winning Post Profits – Full Review

 

Winning Post Profits is a horse racing tipster based at the Sure Win tipster platform and they have been going since June 2021. So just over 3 years now.

The tips are provided by a chap called Sam Darby and come with detailed write-ups explaining the reasoning behind the selections. 

Sam uses a variety of bet types including singles, doubles, trebles, forecasts and the like. These multiple bets can be at very large odds of 500/1+ so there is the opportunity to land a massive winner.

As mentioned during our review, the staking is more variable than with most tipsters we review, with up to 14 points per bet being staked.

Some bets for example are 4pts e/w or 5pts e/w.

Sam says the reason for using this staking is: “to try to make it less confusing for people when recommending very small stakes forecasts or multis. I took the view that people are more likely to be confused by 0.05 points stakes than 0.5 points stakes, so I made the stakes for standard singles higher to hopefully make it clearer/less confusing.”

That makes sense really in view of the multiple bets the service uses, to keep everything in proportion. 

Anyway, we followed the service for 6 months which gave us a good sample size of 194 bets. 

At the end of our review they finished with a solid profit of 13 points

That was achieved with a strike rate of 27% (including placed horses) and a return on investment (ROI) of 2%

The service advises using a 300 point betting bank, so the growth in the bank over the course of our trial was only 4%.

At Betfair SP the results weren’t quite as good, with a loss of 41 points made, so it looks like you will need bookie accounts to make the most of this service. 

Overall then given just a small profit was made and the low bank growth and ROI over our trial, it only seems fair to award Winning Post Profits a NEUTRAL rating. 

A decent effort to have made a slight profit, but it’s not quite enough in context of the overall metrics to warrant a passed rating at this stage. 

 

Service Breakdown

Ease of use: The selections are sent out e-mail, usually in the afternoon or evening before racing. There is plenty of time to get the bets on and with around 1 bets per day on average the workload is pretty manageable. Most bets come at the weekends, so there are often no bets for a few days during the week then around 4-5 bets on a Friday/Saturday. 

Availability of prices: We didn’t experience too many issues with price availability during the course of our trial. 

Strike rate: The strike rate for our trial was solid at 27% (including placed horses).

Advised Betting Bank: A 300 point betting bank is recommended for following the service. That seems fairly reasonable to us and was never in jeopardy during our trial. 

Subscription costs: The subscription costs at the time of writing are £39 per month or £327 per year.

 

OVERALL VERDICT: NEUTRAL

After a six month trial, horse racing tipster Winning Post Profits finished with a profit of 13 points at advised prices.  

With an ROI of 2% and bank growth of 4%, the service receives a NEUTRAL rating from us.

A solid effort but not quite enough to merit a passed rating at this stage.

Winning Post Profits – Results Update

12th September 2024

Things have picked up nicely for horse racing tipster Winning Post Profits, with a profit of 42 points made to advised prices since our last update.

That means they are now 9 points up at advised prices for our trial overall.

You can view full results here.

Things have also picked up at Betfair SP, with a profit of 39 points made since our last update. However, they are still 28 points down for our trial overall at BSP. 

As mentioned before, the staking with this service is more variable than with most tipsters we review, with up to 14 points per bet being staked so that is to be borne in mind when viewing the results and when choosing an appropriate betting bank for the service if you have signed up.

Winning Post Profits – Results Update

9th August 2024

It’s been a tough time lately for horse racing tipster Winning Post Profits, with a loss of 41 points made to advised prices since our last update.

That means they are now 33 points down at advised prices for our trial overall.

You can view full results here.

They have fared somewhat worse at Betfair SP, with a loss of 48 points made since our last update and a loss of 67 points made for our trial overall at BSP. 

In our last update we mentioned that the staking with this service goes up to 14 points per bet, which we described as “quite aggressive.”

However, Sam who runs the service points out that “The points totals used will be higher than what most are used to and that doesn’t mean the £ stakes should be higher but more that followers will want to adjust their £ per point staking that they have used elsewhere.

The reason I’ve always used a higher points total is to try to make it less confusing for people when recommending very small stakes forecasts or multis. I took the view that people are more likely to be confused by 0.05 points stakes than 0.5 points stakes, so I made the stakes for standard singles higher to hopefully make it clearer/less confusing.”

So in light of this information – and a 300 point bank being recommended for the service – it is perhaps better to describe the staking as more “variable” rather than “aggressive” than other services. 

Anyway, hopefully that clears things up and the staking used makes sense in context of the multis etc being used. It also should be noted that this makes the current results look worse than they actually are, as at 1pt stakes the loss would be obviously much lower.

Winning Post Profits – Results Update

6th May 2024

It’s been a better time lately for horse racing tipster Winning Post Profits, with a profit of 56 points made to advised prices since our last update.

That means they are now 9 points up at advised prices for our trial overall.

You can view full results here.

They have fared a little worse at Betfair SP, with a profit of 40 points made since our last update but a loss of 19 points made for our trial so far at BSP. 

It’s worth pointing out that staking is quite aggressive with this service at up to 14 points per bet, with some 8 and 10 point bets so far, so it can be quite volatile with this tipster. 

A 300 point bank is recommended for following the service, but it could be prudent to go with a slightly larger bank to be on the safe side here.

Winning Post Profits – Results Update

6th May 2024

It’s been a tough start to our trial of horse racing tipster Winning Post Profits, with a loss of 47 points made to advised prices for our trial to date.

You can view full results here.

It’s a similar story at Betfair SP, with a loss of 59 points made for our trial so far. 

It’s worth pointing out that staking is quite aggressive with this service at up to 14 points per bet, with some 8 and 10 point bets so far, so the results are certainly not as bad as they at first seem. 

A 300 point bank is recommended for following the service, so most of the bank is still in tact.

Winning Post Profits – New Review

2nd April 2024

We are starting a new trial today of a horse racing service called Winning Post Profits

They are based at the Sure Win tipster platform and have been going since June 2021, so just under 3 years now. 

The reported results in that time have been stellar, with over 1,000 points profit made in total. 

That has been achieved with a solid strike rate of 36% and an excellent return on investment of 29%

The staking is quite aggressive with this service at up to 14 points per bet, so that needs to be taken into account both in terms of the profit total and the betting bank needed to follow the service. 

A 300 point bank is recommended for following the service which takes this larger staking into account. 

It is somewhat more of a selective service than many horse racing tipsters out there, with around 5 bets per week on average. 

Tips are normally sent out the evening before racing, giving plenty of time to get the bets on. 

The service is flat only and normally runs from March through December so it is a good time to be starting a review. 

We will kick things off today then and will report back here soon as how things are going. 

In the meantime you can check out Winning Post Profits for yourself here.

Second Class Racing – Full Review

 

Second Class Racing is a horse racing laying service run out of the Betchat stable of tipsters, with tips provided by a chap called Mel Gee. 

Mel and Betchat are the same team behind another service we are currently reviewing – First Class Racing. 

Whilst that service focuses on selective back bets in top class racing, Second Class Racing does the opposite – it provides lay bets at a higher volume and in all classes of racing.

Over the years we’ve found very few successful laying services – really the only one being Little Acorns – and its complimentary service, Little Acorns Gold, which passed a review back in October 2022. 

So we approached this review with a bit of trepidation to see whether another laying service could finally pass a review.

We wanted to give the service a proper look as there can be quite a bit of variance in laying services, so we followed the service for just over 6 months and proofed more than 500 bets in that time. 

Selections are sent out via Telegram, where Mel posts a screenshot from Betfair with this picks, which looks like this:-

So you take a look at those and then try to place lay bets at the same price Mel has got. 

The rules of the service are to lay at the advised price (always between 3.0 and 6.0) and not to take a larger price.

If a lay isn’t matched at the advised price, then it’s no bet. 

You do not select “keep in play” or “take SP” on Betfair and there is no trading – it’s a “set and forget” approach. . 

Not all of your lay bets will be matched but that’s okay – Betchat say that over the long run it should balance out in terms of missing both winning and losing lays. 

In our own experience that was very much the case – we did have a few selections that we weren’t matched on over the course of the trial but a few of those were losers (as in the horse won), so it was actually a relief to have missed them. 

There were also a few winning lays we weren’t matched on so overall it pretty much balanced out. 

Anyway, after six months and 500 bets, how did it pan out?

Well we are pleased to report that a profit of 70 points was made, which is no mean feat in laying terms. 

That was achieved with a very high strike rate of 85%, so the vast majority of lays were successful. 

As is often the case with these things however, the unsuccessful lays did tend to come in batches. 

Call it “natural variance,” “bad luck” or whatever you prefer, but either way it can be a little testing when you get a bunch of losers close together and your bank takes a significant hit. 

However, in the long run Mel always bounced back and produced good runs of successful lays to rebuild the bank and ultimately finish the trial with a very healthy profit.

Whilst they do NOT advise following the service at Betfair SP, we also tracked the results at BSP just out of interest. 

Laying all the selections at BSP would have given a profit of 70 points, exactly the same total as taking the advised prices.

Laying only those selections with a BSP below 6 (Mel’s cut-off point for a selection), would have given a profit of 52 points, which is mainly due to having less bets – only 334 compared to 500 following the recommended approach. 

Whichever way you skin it then it’s been a very good trial and we are pleased to award Second Class Racing a PASSED rating. 

That’s only the second laying service to have passed a review here at HBR (and still be operational), so well done to Mel Gee and the Betchat team! 

 

Service Breakdown

Ease of use: The selections are sent out by Telegram, usually around midday UK time on the day of racing. There is plenty of time to get the bets on and with around 2-3 bets per day on average the workload is very manageable. 

Availability of prices: As discussed above, there were some instances of prices being missed but overall this balanced out and wasn’t really an issue. 

Strike rate: The strike rate for our trial was very good at 85%, meaning a very high proportion of winning lays. 

Advised Betting Bank: A 100 point bank is recommended for following the service which seems reasonable to us and was more than enough to cope with the ups and downs during our trial.

Subscription costs: Subscription costs are quite high at £199.97 per quarter or £599.97 per year, so realistically to make it worthwhile you would probably need a betting bank of at least £2,000. 

That’s based on a recommended betting bank of 100 points, so that would be £20 per lay. 

For our review period that would have produced £1400 profit, minus just under £400 in subscription costs if paying quarterly.  

 

OVERALL VERDICT: PASSED

Making a profit from lay betting is very tough. Testament to this is the fact that only one laying service has passed a review here at HBR and is still going – Little Acorns. 

So it’s great to be able to say we finally have another successful trial of a laying service, with Second Class Racing producing 70 points profit at both advised prices and BSP. 

It achieved that with a very high strike rate of 85% and gets a firm thumbs up from us with a PASSED rating. 

With the subscription costs being quite high however we would recommend at least a £2,000 betting bank to make it worthwhile signing up. 

For those that are able to stake at or above that level, Second Class Racing has produced excellent results over a six month trial and is well worth checking out.

Second Class Racing – Results Update

25th April 2024

It’s been an excellent month for horse racing laying service Second Class Racing, with a profit of 35 points made to advised prices since our last update.

That means they are now 60 points up for our trial overall at advised prices.

You can view full results here.

The rules of the service are to lay at the advised price (always between 3.0 and 6.0) and not to take a larger price. If a lay isn’t matched at the advised price, then it’s a no bet. 

There is no trading – it’s a “set and forget” approach. 

Whilst they do NOT advise following the service at Betfair SP, we have also tracked the results at BSP just out of interest. 

Laying all the selections at BSP would have given a profit of 40 points since our last update and a profit of 59 points for our trial overall thus far.

Laying only those selections with a BSP below 6 (Mel’s cut-off point for a selection), would have given a profit of 53 points so far.

So all in all the results have been pretty similar whichever approach you’ve followed.

Whilst they do NOT advise following the service at Betfair SP, we have also tracked the results at BSP just out of interest. 

Laying all the selections at BSP would have given a profit of 21 points since our last update and a profit of 19 points for our trial overall thus far.

Laying only those selections with a BSP below 6 (Mel’s cut-off point for a selection), would have given a profit of 30 points so far.

Second Class Racing – Results Update

12th February 2024

It’s been a tough time lately for horse racing laying service Second Class Racing, with a loss of 33 points made to advised prices since our last update.

That means they are now 10 points up for our trial overall at advised prices.

You can view full results here.

The rules of the service are to lay at the advised price (always between 3.0 and 6.0) and not to take a larger price. If a lay isn’t matched at the advised price, then it’s a no bet. 

There is no trading – it’s a “set and forget” approach. 

Whilst they do NOT advise following the service at Betfair SP, we have also tracked the results at BSP just out of interest. 

Laying all the selections at BSP would have given a loss of 36 points since our last update and a loss of 2 points for our trial overall thus far.

Laying only those selections with a BSP below 6 (Mel’s cut-off point for a selection), would have given a profit of 22 points so far.

Just a note to say I’ve seen a few comments in the group chat about the recent losses and whilst it’s fully understandable to be disappointed, it’s important to take a long-term view of the results. 

That’s why we always advise allowing for the full review to be completed before deciding whether to sign up to a service or not.

We tend to run reviews for at least six months these days – and often much longer – which allows us to get a really good look at a service and a big sample size of bets. 

Reviewing over these extended periods allows us to cut out the “noise” of short-term fluctuations and see whether a service has a clear edge over the market. 

So we have to give this one a little more time to play out before reaching a verdict. The recent losses have been tough to take but let’s see where they end up at by the end of the review.

Second Class Racing – Results Update

Whilst they do NOT advise following the service at Betfair SP, we have also tracked the results at BSP just out of interest. 

Laying all the selections at BSP would have given a profit of 17 points since our last update and 34 points profit for our trial overall thus far.

Laying only those selections with a BSP below 6.0 (Mel’s cut-off point for a selection), would have given a profit of 37 points so far.

Whichever way you’d been following the selections then would have given a very healthy profit since our trial started.

The rules of the service are to lay at the advised price (always between 3.0 and 6.0) and not to take a larger price. If a lay isn’t matched at the advised price, then it’s a no bet.

However, laying only those selections with a BSP below 6.0 (Mel’s cut-off point for a selection), would have given a profit of 29 points so far.

So will be interesting to see if that’s maintained during the rest of the review.

Second Class Racing – New Review

3rd November 2023

Today we are starting a new trial of a horse racing service called Second Class Racing

This comes from the same guy (Mel Gee) behind another service we are currently reviewing – First Class Racing. 

Whilst that service focuses on selective back bets in top class racing, Second Class Racing kind of does the opposite – it provides lay bets at a much higher volume (up to 12 bets per day) and in various classes of racing, not just top class racing. 

The results of the service so far have been very impressive:-

After 24 weeks the selections have:

  • Made £1,421 to 10 stakes…
  • Made an average of £59 per week…
  • Made a Return On Investment (ROI) of 17.5%
  • And achieved a strike rate of 85% (691 bets won out of 811).

So pretty strong results there, although it is still early days.

To find the selections Mel looks at Betfair between around 11 and 12 in the morning UK time and then posts the lay bets on Telegram with a screenshot of the lays placed on Betfair. 

Not all of the selections will be matched and Mel’s advice is not to go chasing the prices – if a selection isn’t matched at the advised price, he says to just leave it. 

All prices are between 3.0 and 6.0 so there is no risk of one unsuccessful lay wiping out your whole bank at huge odds as is the case with some laying services.

It is a “set and forget” strategy so once you have entered the lay bet on Betfair that is it – there is nothing further to do like trading or monitoring the market, your work for the day is done. 

So a very novel approach here and it will be interesting to see how this one fares under a live trial. It would be good to have a profitable laying service as they have been few and far between over the years.  

We will kick things off today then and will report back here soon on how it’s all going.

In the meantime you can check out Second Class Racing for yourself here. 

 

 

 

 

Scottish Confidential – 4 Year Update

We originally reviewed Scottish Confidential (previously known as the Scottish Football Income Booster) back between 2020 and 2022. 

It performed solidly in that trial but didn’t set the world alight and finished with a NEUTRAL rating. 

However, we have continued to proof the selections since our trial ended and there has been a significant improvement in performance over the last two years. 

Since our review ended, they have added a very impressive 65 points profit

That would be £6,500 profit at £100 per point stakes or £1,625 profit at £25 per point. 

You can view full results here.

In football terms that is top notch, where grinding out any kind of profit is typically very hard. 

They have really excelled over the last couple of years, accruing that profit at a return on investment of 10% and a strike rate of over 40%

As mentioned in our original trial, it’s a pretty simple service to follow. The selections are sent by e-mail, normally on Thursday and Friday ahead of the weekend’s games, giving plenty of time to get the bets on and there are around 15 bets per week.

With some of the bets coming in the Scottish League 1 and 2, prices can be a little sensitive so it is advisable to have as many bookie accounts available as possible and to get your bets on as quickly as you can.  

As long as you have access to that though we are happy to upgrade Scottish Confidential to a firm PASSED rating. 

The overall results for the service now stand at over 200 points profit, which have been proofed extensively here and elsewhere. 

That puts it in the elite level of football tipsters who have stood the test of time and produced strong profits across many years of tipping.

OVERALL VERDICT: PASSED

So in summary it’s a firm thumbs up from us for Scottish Confidential which has really stepped up its game over the last couple of years with 65 points profit made at a ROI of over 10%, putting it up there with the very best football tipsters.

A service well worth adding to the portfolio.

The Scottish Football Income Booster (or SFIB for short) is a tipster that focuses solely on Scottish Football. The tips are provided by a chap who is known solely as “the Scotsman,” to keep his identity secret. 

The Scotsman is a university educated maths whizz based just outside Glasgow (yes, he’s Scottish!) and his CV screams “Scottish football expert“.

With previous stints at leading bookmaking firms and an Asian-based private investment syndicate as a proprietary trader, in addition to acting as a quant-based hedge fund’s go-to Scottish betting consultant after he was head-hunted because of his vast local knowledge about players, teams and motivational issues likely to affect results.

So it is quite a resume for a tipster and as we often say, the results coming into our trial looked strong with a profit of over 180 points made since starting tipping in 2015/16.

We followed the tips for 20 months, which gave us some of the period when covid lockdowns were still in place and football results were a little skew-whiff, but then a full season of post-lockdowns when things went back to normal. Overall it gave us a good sample size of just over 300 bets in total.

Most of the bets are in the match odds 1X2 market, with a few in other specialist markets such over/under 2.5 goals, draw no bet (DNB) and double chance (DC).

They provide tips across the Scottish leagues, with everything from the Premiership down to League Two. 

Whilst we gave the service a good long period to prove itself, unfortunately across the trial period it never really got going and in the end finished four points down.

That was only a -1% ROI and represented just 4% of our bank, so for all intents and purposes it pretty much broke even during our review.

On that basis we think a fair verdict here is a NEUTRAL rating, as the betting bank was still largely in tact by the end of our trial, so no damage done really.

 

Service Breakdown

Ease of use: The selections are sent by e-mail, normally on Thursday and Friday ahead of the weekend’s games, giving plenty of time to get the bets on.

Availability of prices: Prices are generally available and we didn’t see any problems obtaining the recommended odds.

Strike rate: The strike rate for the trial was 44%, which isn’t too bad in itself but would need to be a little higher to achieve a profit.

Advised Betting Bank: We couldn’t see a betting bank recommended for the service but used a 100 point bank for the purposes of our trial.

Subscription costs: The current subscription costs at the time of writing are £37+VAT per month.

 

OVERALL VERDICT: NEUTRAL

We followed the Scottish Football Income Booster for a 20 month period in the hope they could produce the kind of profits reported prior to our trial, but unfortunately at the end of our trial they finished 4 points down.

That still left the vast majority of the bank in tact and the ROI was only -1%, so no damage done but overall it’s a NEUTRAL verdict for this service.

The Scottish Football Income Booster has continued their slow and steady fightback, with a profit of 10 points made since our last update.

That means they are now 3 points up for our trial overall.

This has been something of a slow-burner of a trial but it’s good to see them finally get into the green after having been behind for most of our trial.

Hopefully they can carry that form into the new year and start to build some decent profits.

Scottish Football Income Booster – Results Update

23rd November 2021

A small improvement for the Scottish Football Income Booster over the last month, with a profit of just 1 point made since our last update.

That means they are now 7 points down for our trial overall.

You can view full results here.

As mentioned last time, they have been very unlucky with late goals this season. If games only lasted 88 minutes they would have cleaned up!

That reminds of us another football service we reviewed previously that recommended trading out at 85 minutes. By that time the odds will be around the 1.2-1.3 range so liabilities are quite small in doing so.

Something to think about anyway.

Scottish Football Income Booster – Results Update

19th October 2021

A small decline for the Scottish Football Income Booster over the last month, with a loss of just 3 points made since our last update.

That means they are now 8 points down for our trial overall.

You can view full results here.

They have been bedeviled with late goals this season. Saturday’s late one in the Kilmarnock game was a 3.8pt swing, which obviously stings a bit. Results could have a somewhat brighter look to them if not for those late goals. 

In any event, it hasn’t been a disaster or anything but the trial has just failed to really get going yet.

That means they are now just 5 points down for our trial overall.

Most of the bets so far this season have been outside of the Scottish Premiership and it seems to be paying dividends concentrating on the lower divisions with positive progress made for this season so far.

Scottish Football Income Booster – Results Update

10th August 2021

The Scottish football season has already kicked off and it’s been a good start to the campaign for the Scottish Football Income Booster, with a profit of 7 points made so far.

That means picking up where we left off at the end of last season, they are now just 6 points down for our trial overall.

Just a reminder that this is a football tipster focusing solely on Scottish football. They bet across the Scottish leagues and mainly bet on the match odds and over/under markets.

The long-term results are very good with over 174 points profit made, so let’s hope they can kick on after making a good start to the season.

We will put this review on hold for the time being, as they are taking a break for the Summer with no Scottish football on. We will picks things up again at the start of next season. 

Hopefully they can get back on track next season when things are back to normal and crowds are back etc.

This trial has struggled to get going so far really. It’s been very much a case of one step forwards, two steps back as each time it looks like they are moving into the green they fall back again. 

Anyway, let’s hope they can get moving forward over the remainder of the season now and at least finish our trial in profit.

The Scottish leagues have been a little weather affected lately so that may have thrown the form off a tad, but hopefully as we move into the spring we will see some better returns for this tipster, also known as “The Scotsman.”

The bets are spread around the Scottish leagues, with some coming in the Premiership whilst a good portion are in the lower leagues. On the lower leagues the odds can get pushed in quite a bit so it’s best to get your bets as soon as possible. 

Good progress here, we’ll see if that continues.

It’s been a bit of a slow start to our trial of Scottish Football Income Booster, with a loss of 7 points made after one month of following the tips.

Most of the bets are either in the match odds or under/over 2.5 goals markets, so pretty simple to follow. Let’s hope they kick on over the next month and put some profit on the board.

Scottish Football Income Booster – New Review

23rd October 2020

When it comes to betting on football, finding an edge or angle to beat the bookies can be tough. The main markets on the big five leagues – the Premier League, Serie A, Bundesliga, La Liga and Ligue 1 – have huge liquidity and are generally difficult to make a profit on. Eking out a narrow 1 or 2% edge is about the best many professional gamblers hope for on the top leagues. 

One alternative approach is to focus on other leagues that don’t get such huge coverage and where things like team news, injuries, players’ form etc isn’t covered so extensively and known to everyone. 

Well the service we are looking at today is one that does exactly that, focusing solely on Scottish football and using their expert knowledge and ear to the ground to make a decent profit from the beautiful game north of Hadrian’s Wall.

The service in question is called the Scottish Football Income Booster (or SFIB for short) and the tips are provided by a chap who is known solely as “the Scotsman,” to keep his identity secret. 

The Scotsman is a university educated maths whizz based just outside Glasgow (yes, he’s Scottish!) and his CV screams “Scottish football expert“.

With previous stints at leading bookmaking firms and an Asian-based private investment syndicate as a proprietary trader, in addition to acting as a quant-based hedge fund’s go-to Scottish betting consultant after he was head-hunted because of his vast local knowledge about players, teams and motivational issues likely to affect results…

Suffice to say this guy is a bona fide expert in his field and a source of highly sought-after information. 

His retutns back that up, with results proofed elsewhere showing a profit of over 180 points since starting tipping in 2015/16.

That would be over £18,000 profit to £100/point stakes or £3,600 to more modest £20/point stakes.

Those results have been achieved with a very decent strike rate of 47% and a return on investment of over 11%, which is more than respectable in the world of football betting. 

The service comes out of the Matthew Walton stable of tipsters, who also has two of the best tipsters we have reviewed in their respective sports, namely Racing Intelligence and the Golf Insider in horse racing and golf respectively.

So from what we can gather Matthew has another hidden gem and top quality tipster this time in the sport of football. 

As we always say though, the ultimate test will be a live trial here at Honest Betting Reviews so we are looking forward to getting our review underway. 

We have just received the tips for this weekend and are raring to go, so will kick off the review today and will hopefully be toasting (with a glass of whiskey and some shortbread perhaps) a good few winners and a positive result in a few months’ time. 

In the meantime you can check out Scottish Football Income Booster (SFIB) for yourself here.
