OK Old Birchonians - it's time to take this to the next level , in short it's time to put up or shut up.
For the month of April , so starting tomorrow - whatever our Lord and Saviour puts up ie. 2 bets , 3 bets , 4 bets etc. in the RP on a Monday and Tuesday - we have to match it - so if he puts the normal 3 bets up - we each have to put 3 bets up - they don't have to be in the same races as His Lordship - they can be anywhere on that day's UK card.
We'll have a mythical £10 Win or £5 EW on each beast and let's see if we can beat the Noble Lord on profitability.
Would someone be kind enough to put Lord Birchy's selections onto the thread please when known.
We'll keep a tally and a table on the thread.
Lord Birchers - I hope you take this in the spirit it's intended.
Mr. Millington - a month's trial as a Tipster in the RP to the winner???
Just like the weather, dismal and wet, his Lordship has another shocking day masquerading as a professional tipster. Overall loss now Minus £176.87 since start of April. Roll on tomorrow.

Fair play to his Lordship - credit here it's due - he is certainly reinvigorated after his recent sojourn - us Layers have to take it in the chin and wait for the good times to return.
Lord Birch Running Total : -£108.12
*To £10 Win Level Steaks(or £5 ew if ew recommended) since April 1.

He reports he was going to have a total of £2k on two he had picked out last Friday after his going through 6 meetings 'in my usual methodical fashion'(they were declared non-runners). How on earth does he get that amount on????? Given his tipping record how is he not destitute? Is BM happy for him to report such bets without question given the RPs stance on promoting betting responsibly. He also reports he had a 12/1 winner on Sat. when is the last time he picked anything near that price?

Gents - have none of you seen his lordship's 'five best Royal Ascot punts' of yesteryear (most recent 20 years ago) in the RP Ascot guide? Won't spoil the surprise but suffice to say it includes aftertiming of the very highest order....and he saves the best til last!

Shotters - sorry to make more work for you , but there is no deduction when there is no selection ; that's how I calculated the first one , so best to keep it the same I think.
Sorry I missed y'day peeps - it was unavoidable.Shotters - sorry to make more work for you , but there is no deduction when there is no selection ; that's how I calculated the first one , so best to keep it the same I think.
Ok Ek will get calculator out again! Lord Birch is 50p down on month and 81.12 down since early April. Nothing personal Barrowboy and if you are from Barrow I enjoyed my visit there a couple of years ago despite only drawing 0-0 and getting soaked.

Lord Birch starred with Lady Aurelia romping home at 7-2. Ek chipped in with Barney Roy at 5-2 and hit bar with Mukatayyef. Rest of us who selected bombed out. His Lordship now -86.12. Will double check before end of month.

Very disappointed when tracked down Racing Post in Brighton to find that Tricky Dicky was clearly off on holidays with sacks of dosh won at Royal Ascot. Looked for him at Brighton races on Tuesday but only spotted one of the cleaners who looked fairly similar! Hopefully back today for flaming July. Lord Birch -5.50 Ekbalco -15 Foyle -20 Barrow Boy -30 One Completely Shot -82.50
Technically his Lordship won June with a loss of 5 and half quid. Bit like some recent political events, with winners being termed losers....... Still at least £86.12 down since April before Birchy starts crowing too much. June was my worst tipping month ever in the daily competition and here but ironically had a profitable betting month! cheers One Shot

If this is still a thing then I can report that his lordship's wagers for the first day of Glorious are as follows:
1:50 Abdon 2pts 3:00 Home Of The Brave 1pt 3:35 Sheikhzayedroad 1pt E/W
Plus one in the last at the Westwood:
6:00 Indian Chief 2pts
To be fair to the great man, none of these is likely to be a 5-4 shot; let's see how he goes!
