Have faith in your own ability to pick horses Shaun [your as good as the tipsters] and then concentrate on betting stratergy and staking.The NO loosing weeks [overall] plan.

To let you in on a little secret [hardly that secret], those Racing scribes do very nicely out of the Punt [at least some of them do], but do you really believe they are going to tell the world what Horses they back? Or that we live in a Democracy?

Some of [most] those picks you went to the effort of Posting [from the Wizard] are just plain nonsense!
Have a look at their form Stats. and you definately wouldn't have backed most of them.
Also consider their unders price due to the fact that thousands of punters will back them as Gospel.
Most of my winnings and I do get 'em [and a birthday] now and then, never come from Horses that would get into the first three of any Tipsters Poll. Tipsters might stumble and print ["************ it!"] a big winner now and then, but not often enough to make following their "very short priced favorite if you back this Plan" worth while.

Cheers.
