We were approached recently by Betfair Australia to help promote their betting exchange.What is Betfair?Betfair is an exchange, which means you are betting against other punters, not against a bookie.It is as simple as placing a fixed odds bet, you click on the current price, state how much you want to bet, and back it. They even have a Betfair SP option for those who want to bet and forget, and...

Gary's Ratings Gary's Ratings have been on offer for 5 months, and have made a profit every month. 81.5 units profit at 17.5% POT means $8,151 profit in under 5 months. Rather than rating every single runner, Gary provides along with his rated prices a minimum price to take only for selected runners he wants to back, making it easy to follow. Recent winners in the past week include Banda Spice at...

Series Preview by Dave Trotter Below are some of my thoughts on the third test between Australia and South Africa. I have based my thoughts around the fact that the pitch will aid the bowling side. The Past Before we look ahead we must look back to the last Day Night Test match at Adelaide oval. Low scores, regular wickets and no side requiring the second new ball means it was definitely a...

If you listen to the media then you would likely think that Australian cricket is in turmoil, I don’t think that is the case however. Changes to the national team are needed and the domestic comp does need some tweaking but we still have some good talent waiting in the wings which I think can serve Australia well. Below is the side I would consider picking for the rest of the summer along with...

Dean here, and I'd like to introduce you to Steve Watson.Steve Watson has been a lover of horse racing, sports, and statistics since a very young age. Steve started out making the same mistakes that many punters make: having unrealistic expectations, poor money management, and following the “too good to be true” tipsters. So he looked for a different way.Learning quickly that traditional form...

It was a great day at Mount Barker on Sunday, and that track appears to be becoming another Kalgoorlie!This year we've bet at Mount Barker 3 times, for a 6.2u profit, a 3.85u profit, and a 25.52u profit. I'll take 35.57u profit from 3 meetings anytime.The one disappointing element was the payout for the Early Quaddie. Although we invested 1.05u and returned 4.05u for a 2.79u profit (recorded at...

Series Preview by Dave TrotterThis summer we are treated to what I am hoping will be a very entertaining and profitable Test series between Australia and South Africa. It seems like decades ago that we had two sides play each other in which the home conditions wouldn’t feel alien to the touring side. This means that we don’t have to manipulate the historical player data much to be able to get an...
