As far as those comments made I would take them with a pinch of salt. The average punter is a mug and probably deserve it.
Brendan Tupper seems to go alright in his tips..... What is his background?

Naive aren't I !!??

I heard a "tip" from a prominent media commentator today(25.7.06):
MR8 5 Baltic Storm
guess what....? it ran unplaced!
If there is any obvious evidence that some of these "tipsters" should hand in their licence then this is the prime example!
The bloke who gave his "inside tip" isn't a bad bloke but he should give up the punt and stick to his on-screen career.
Truly, this bloke's moniker from now on is:
Most
Unlikely
Gain,.......
....punters, stick to your own selections despite the "push" these "e*****s" give the punting public!

Cheers.

Just on people getting married. Former good female tennis player Barbara Schett has married German champ Tommy Haas.
She has kept her own surname and added Tommy's. Quite a name, up there with Martha Focker from the Fockers movie.

Does anyone else share my longheld misgivings that some media tipsters may not necessarily back or support the very runners which they recommend to the broader betting public?
Accordingly, punters, trust your own opinion and do a bit of your own formstudy/research and support the runner(s) which your own calculations suggest have a real chance of winning or running well.

Cheers.

SR3 Wyong,

In the prelude to this race, I could not believe the logic of the commentator when evaluating the prospects of runners in the upcoming event!
He stated that No2 Nairobi won it's last start in a maiden and with the apprentice's claim(2kg) it held an advantage over the topweight, Twin Wing.
Twin Wing, the eventual winner(($1.6w $1.1plNSW) beat Nairobi in a close finish but on my calculations was an absolute certainty!
Any form student will confirm the most difficult rise in grade is from maiden class to class1. Yet, the eventual winner, Twin Wing(No1), had run a respectable race in Cl2 last start and was dropping back to Cl1 today!
Nairobi, had won a maiden last start carrying 51kg and was to carry 54.5kg today less the 2kg apprentice claim.
So,......I ask you ......where is the advantage for Nairobi? The topweight was always the class runner in the field and had a distinct advantage over Nairobi and proved this by winning, although the runner-up ran a respectable race!
Due to this "anomaly" I duly increased my bet on Twin Wing and duly collected.
Moral Of Story: trust your own judgment and wager accordingly!

Cheers.

The only time I take 'tipster' input into my calcs is when they tip something way outside my ratings. I usually collect much more than I would normally expect :)

Does anyone listen to the Saturday morning racing programs-whatever state that may be?
If you do then you would be going broke at an accelarating rate.
Some of these "tipsters".....well , what can I say.... their strike-rate would suggest that they may have to "get a real job!"
Why don't they get "fair dinkum" and tip the horses they feel have a real chance!
Any other sceptical punters out there....if so....please give us your views.

Cheers.
