My name is Jim Welsh.

I use betting on horseracing as a means of supplementing my income and I have shown a profit from my betting in 14 of the last 15 calendar years. The main aim of this site to help you achieve profit or increase your profits and enhance your enjoyment from horse-race betting. 

If you are going to become a punter, it is necessary to make the distinction between punters who gamble and those who bet.  Gambling is playing games of pure chance with no possibility of predicting long-term results. Examples include the National Lottery, Fruit Machines, Casino games etc.  Betting is all about odds. Neither bookmakers nor the punters know the true odds.  Bookmakers are in competition, so their odds on offer differ and the odds can change quickly as punters place their bets. 

Horseracing gives us the opportunity to assess the odds on offer and make an accurate assessment of the risk and return equation and only bet when the return or the likelihood of success is particularly attractive. There is now a vast amount of information available to computer literate punters from which to assess the risk element. We can use previous results, statistics, trends etc, to enable us to ascertain which variables work at influencing the results of races. These variables can then be applied to future races.    

If you are a Gambler please leave this site now, you might want to head to your nearest betting shop as these places have now become nothing more than amusement arcades. If you want to become a more professional bettor and learn how to beat the bookie on a long term basis then read on.  

I have written an E-book called ‘Profitable Punting’. 

The book only costs £5 and details the methods I use and these are easily followed.  Hopefully after reading the e-book you will be armed with the knowledge necessary to help you achieve profit or increase your profits and enhance your enjoyment from horse-race betting.  

If you are to busy to spend the time necessary for doing form analysis, let me do it for you. I average 2 to 3 selective bets per week. Average odds of all bets over 3/1. All my bets are on this websites tips page before 10am in the morning.

You might even prefer to use a simple system.  A system is an inflexible set of rules for making selections to back. Please select the systems page link on the left navigation bar to the systems page where you will find several systems that consistently show healthy profits.

Your feedback is most welcome, if there is anything else you would like to see in this site please let me know. My biggest request recently is for guidance on the Saturday Scoop 6. The object of the bet, is to select the six winners from the six races, but there is also a dividend for those that manage to select six placed horses. A perm is the best way to increase your chances of a big win. My own method is to select two runners in what appear to be the four hardest races, and bank on just one horse in the other two events. The total stake for such a bet would be £32, via a 1 x 2 x 2 x 2 x 2 x 1 entry, which equals sixteen bets (at £2 per line). Try not to include to many favourites and place your bet as late as possible in case of non runners. Good Luck!

I design and maintain this site myself and if you would like assistance creating your own website please don't hesitate to contact me.  

I recently sponsored 3 races at Musselburgh and hope to do it again in the near future and invite more guests.
