Tom Segal

What has he done? Not a fan, just curious.

Professional losing tipster, employed by a filthy newspaper

Read his comments on Tuesday about Simply the Bettts being the best piece of form in UK, paid for my Cheltenham

Fraudy only backs his winners.

I see. Mr Segal talks a good talk, walks the walk is a different matter.

In the City of London a professional stock picker/analyst/tipster eg Mr Wray the owner of Saracens Rugby Club one thing that distinguishes the betting man in the City to the horse racing professional tipsters is the former usually gets it right unlike the latter.

The filthy newspaper has yet to report on the despicable and unprofessional behaviour of Bet*** the sponsor of the Champion Chase which today was fined a record £11.6m for being inadequate in their dealings with 7 customers (some were depositing stolen monies and/or displaying clear signs of gambling addiction),  failing to fulfil its obligations to prevent both money laundering and problem gambling.

And no mention of vilebet money back offer on all losers in first race to those placed, filth.

As I said yesterday. Horrific.

About 20 years past his sell by date, but nothing suprises me with that filthy disgusting paper

@impossible123 on the superiority of City men. Since shares usually go up, a monkey throwing darts at the Financial Times would do better than most racing tipsters and probably better than most City men as well, certainly after commission. Now the markets are going down, how are the City professionals doing?

Tom had 4 winners at Cheltenham 
One each day
Plenty of seconds and lots of  excitement
Well done Tom

as i posted on the ts friday thread, he had 4 winners from 23 selections and no winners from 19 selections ante-post. 
a total of 4/42, does not warrant a well done tom. 

you must be skint following ts at cheltenham, unless of course you just did a veritas and backed the 4 winners.

On the RP podcast he was so confident on a few he was bordering on manical, springfield fox and copperhead !

His selection logic wasn't as informative as Kealys and to rub salt in his wounds he went against Min (pocket talk) who he had tipped for previous festivals.

He needs to re-access his selection criteria as watching the podcast I couldn't see anything going to lead to a revival !

Can I assume then ashleigh that you are no longer gonna litter the forum with your Ts and Ts on sunday posts, you are doing your best to advertise the loser!

jmdc or should that be Mr Seagull ash's post is the first many of read when we get up and switch on followed by the post from brother Lampus himself is a bit like does the sun shine in the morning the eccentricity of being english.

jmdc, unlike you many people on her like to see what ts selects, whether backing or laying all can do what the they like with the info.

just think how much you could have made laying all his selections this week.

His selections are too big to lay ashleigh!

Another cracking day!

TS aka the stopped clock is still a legend in the Segal household. Every time he tips a horse I’ve independently selected a little piece of me dies inside.

I think it’s extraordinary that he still has such a loyal/blind following and even though I’m not one of them, Ashleigh provides an invaluable and unselfish service to those users of this forum that do and he should be applauded not criticised for doing so.

100 % agree. ^

If these tipsters were good the bookies would not be feeding them - they'd be stopping/restricting them. As such, an inference they'd be tipping on behalf of their paymasters ie the bookies (punter's enemies) is logical, and probably accurate.

Prudent to ignore presenters/journos; if good would they still be doing their day job?

Sport is my hobby
Most hobbies cost you money  atl lest it does not kill you like smoking
And if you follow Tom and do your own selections I find it very enjoyable

If Tom is so poor, who is decent?  David Jennings had a good festival. He was pretty sweet on Aramax, Ferny hollow, Min, Champ, and Epatante. Had near misses with the storyteller & hold the note. He also tipped  a few fallers, ridersonthestorm who was travelling OK before falling , as well being very sweet on the unfortunate freak goshen and the disappointing itchy feet.  For a €2 stake he showed a profit of €18, representing 7 winners from 25, or 28% hit rate. I have been tracking him throughout the season as well and he is consistently hitting around these figures.

ok dave

I'd Samcro, Faugheen, Epatante, Champ, Santini, Lostintranslation, ABP/Delta Work (as savers) - all antepost; Goshen/Latest Exhibition (on the day/small stake); Paisley Park, Tiger Roll and Benie (in antepost doubles and accas). The rest I abstained.

On the above I still showed a profit with a bit of luck from Samcro; careful risk management eg laying some off Paisley Park/Tiger Roll/Benie; Samcro/Faugheen/Santini/Lostintranslation - the last in-running - given big antepost prices.

Do I call myself a professional punter? No, a non-greedy recreational yes.
