Treasure In The Sand

2010-02-20

 Although much of the current focus is directed towards the forthcoming Cheltenham Festival, an all weather tipping service is sweeping all before them in the Besttipping tipsters table. PJA All Weather has notched up a scintillating 69.5 point profit in the last four weeks.

    Thoughtsofstardom’s 10/1 Kempton success on 27 January was followed the next day by a four winner haul at 7/1, 11/2, 6/1 and 5/1 (23.3 point profit on the day).

    The impressive progress has continued through February with, among others, Sarah’s Art (9/1), Make Amends (8/1) and Billy Red (8/1) all receiving the PJA All Weather seal of approval. The upshot is that PJA All Weather presently leads our 2010 table by more than 36 points from PJA’s National Hunt service, which also enjoyed a profitable four weeks, garnering 21.6 points

    With tips averaging more than 8/1, PJA National Hunt can never be accused of going for the easy option. But their approach again paid off. This month’s successes included: Arctic Magic (advised price 11/1), Beshabar (10/1), Ya I Know (10/1), Fiftyfive Degrees (8/1), Mister Pete (7/1) and last Saturday’s big Haydock chase victor, Silver By Nature (7/1).

    In all but three of the last twenty nine months, Personal Info has recorded a profit. This month’s yield was a handsome 27.3 points. Eight out of thirteen selections won, representing a 61% strike rate.

    Also in good health in the run-up to Cheltenham are Steve Jones and the Mathematician. The former was on the mark with the Liam Treadwell-ridden Plum Pudding at Leicester on 26 January. The advice was posted in plenty of time to get the 14/1 that was available early doors (the SP was 8/1). Two of Steve’s other tips, Benfleet Boy (6/1) and Caravel (7/1) were successful, leading to a 5 point four-week profit.

    The Mathematician also posted a profit, thanks to 11/2 Nickel Silver, 5/1 Gamesters Lady and 5/2 Ravi River.

    Finally this month a word about the two soccer services in the Besttipping table. Soccertips’ Scottish service recorded an 80% strike rate during the last four week period while the English service scored a 57% strike rate. Both services again showed useful profits.

Besttipping receive selections from all the tipsters well before the start time of the event. These selections (the same ones they are sending out to their regular subscribers) are later settled against the day's results and entered into the Besttipping database. The result is that we are able to display a complete and accurate (and above all, independently verifiable!) record of how each service is performing over a period of time.

Many tipsters claim impressive track records and in some cases, these results are undoubtedly true. Claims though, are very easy to make and without proper policing and easily understandable analysis it is difficult for the potential customer to subscribe with any real confidence. Besttipping is the only 'Professional' service and is unique in that it offers for free the chance for you to:

• View results graphically
• View results by level flat stake (£10, £50 or £100 you decide)
• View results by points (if the tipster uses this system)
• View total win value and percentage of winners
• View results over different periods e.g. 30 days, 90 days, year to date
• Monitors laying as well as backing services

The importance of long-term subscriptions.

Looking back over the performances of our tipsters since we started collecting data in October 2005, what strikes me most is the incredible consistency shown by the top performers. Not only are the same names who were at the top of our tables in December still at the top, but the amount of profit shown to their clients has increased steadily.

This is not to say though that they will never have negative weeks or even months. In fact they ALL have, and will no doubt have more in the future. The important thing to appreciate when deciding to subscribe to a service is that it has to be a long term investment to be worthwhile. It is true that you may subscribe for a month and be lucky enough to show a huge return, but the consistent and reliable returns are shown over time.

Besttipping is there to identify how tipsters have performed in the past so that you can gauge how they might perform in the future. Having chosen the service you feel offers the best long term value, make a long term commitment and decide on a stake amount which does not overstretch you during the losing periods, while at the same time makes the subscription fee worthwhile.

Best of Luck!!
