My mate has been trying to convince me to subscribe to Henry Rix as he reckons he has done well over time (yes you can ask why my mate doesn't just give me the selections)!!
Gave me his bets for Royal Ascot and so i thought i would try to arb to give myself some free bets as my mate reckons the prices collapse quite quickly and you can give yourself some nice free bets if you act quick and get a good bit on the advertised prices.
Worked hard to be in good places for multiple shops close by, was in first shop at time bets were texted, got good amounts on, so all good so far.
What an utter waste of time. Nothing back, every bet lost (quite a few ran abysmally). Total outlay 25pts - RETURN = ZERO pts.
Quite a few bets just appeared to be plain rainbow chasing with little prospect of win and also difficult to get much on (e.g. 2pts win / 1pt place at 66/1) as the prices collapsed quickly. No logic either that a few that were placed at perfectly reasonable E/W prices were tipped as WIN ONLY.
Headlines in Racing Post are quite grabbing but surely a total waste of money as for most must be impossible to get on unless you are literally standing in shops as betting on his selections would see accounts closed quickly (god knows why as surely this is a bookies bonanza)?

Always been the same the service is run for the benefit of Henry end of.
Getting on is the only issue with all these high profile tipsters , it's simple you may for a short time then you will find it an ever increasing struggle.

Thought this must be a thread that had been brought back from around 1999/2000
£1795pa subs after you have paid this get yourself down to broadmoor.
it's strange the way he seemed to know what he was doing for years and then for over a decade has been clueless, how on earth people still subscribe I will never know, some people have too much money
Not done too well today either:
MAGGIES ANGEL 2pts win, 1pt place @10/1 - 2nd (so at least got stake back)!!!
WINNING WAYS 2pts win, 1pt place @10/1 - UNP
Another 3pts down the swanee
Does something called Inside Extra also by text - effing hopeless according to my mate.

he put up the national winner last year @ 50s and also had an amazing cheltenham a few years ago with a 40/1 and a 20/1 winner on the same day and another double figure price winner of hobbs's as well at that meeting
but somebody who subscribes to them was on another thread on here saying he was well down the last few years and IF you can get the prices he quotes you won't be getting them for long after a winner or 2

Think he tried the Gerrard Mosse double today for inspiration - Winning Ways was a most bizare tip. Had zero chance on book and run up to that!!
big price euler...it happens
he used to be into speed figures and WW did a fair figure for a hcap at ascot and was in the wrong part of the track last week
I can see the logic at the price but speed figures not for me when rain and soft ground knocking about

last ad said he was 20 odd grand up..not sure the period of time.
to £200 per point I think WS and will have been around the time of rule the world's national win @ 50s
He uses the same 'computer generated figures' as the tipster in The Times who co owned horses like Gift Horse with him.
Note today The Times tipped both the Mosse runners.
If you're a mug and want to back Rix tips just stroll into the Bookies pick up their copy of the RP and have a gander at the Times tips as shown in the 'Selection Box'

you will have long losing runs does not suit everyones temperment
he does show a longterm profit but may lose banks along the way
when you backing a lot of double figure prices its all about seeing the long term picture not easy I couldnt do it

So you're saying back all 30-odd Rob Wright selections in Times to get the ones that coincide with Rix 'free'? Brilliant!

ER ...........no..........I'm suggesting you use your common sense and realise that Rix tends to tip in the Heritage Handicaps /Group Races and if you look at The Times correspondents selections in those races you'll usually discover at least one of Rix's selections. If RW in the Times gives it a NB or NAP then pay special attention.
You can find this out for free by checking in the RP without even buying it. I was merely trying to help the o.p. if he finds making his own selections too taxing.
By the way, I presume the 'friend' who recommended Rix is now an ex friend ?

henry just txt and says tar for marking his card about this practice.
I first mentioned it on here years ago. Anyone who's paid him for tips since this is a Grade A copper bottomed ocean going MUG.
They'll still lose money ( obviously) but save on the subs

stop reading after "if you act quick and get a good bit on the advertised prices"
thanks
good luck with that by the way

Been away for 2 weeks on hol. Got tips yesterday and today and UTTER UTTER CRAP again. 4 points down the swanee yesterday and the same again today. Bit unlucky for none of the Inside Extra bets (or his mentions rather than account bets) to also win as three of the four races saw his tip go long odds on in running, but none won. Probably sums up what you get get really. Other one was in Hackwood where he tipped Tupi and Visionary as "other runners" were vulnerable. Outcome - his two last and last but one. Actually that more sums up his service in the time i have followed.
