Racing & Football Outlook

Save your money...that goes for the Weekender too..junior staff guessing selections and writing useless articles...Jeffrey Bernard would be birling in his box...

I have known the rfo editor for over 30 he lived a few doors away from me before he moved to the smoke, a real nice guy and a very good judge i remember about 5 years ago he had an acca at Cheltenham first 6 went in the last one was in the gold cup one of Hendersons would of been 50k plus horse was placed looked like wining cant think of the horse anybody help me out.HE has know left the bright lights of Landon to come back to Darlo speak to him regular.

He also did an article in the post one year anti post for the festival his first selection was Silver Concorde in the bumper @16/1.
Glad to say i know what is ap bet for the festival is it has shortened from 16/1 to 8/1.

I went to the supermarket today with the intention of buying Racing & Football Outlook for old times' sake. £4.50. I put it back on the shelf.

Subscribers to Racing Post Members Club Ultimate can read Racing & Football Outlook online for free (well, free if you ignore the cost of Ultimate).

He was badly bitten by that one.

Hope he layed it for some compo.

Raceform Update is the one i always used to buy and I miss it...
Ended up being taken over by the much inferior Weekender which I tried but gave up on.

Thanks for that Second Again. It's a bit annoying, to be honest. I've had that option for ages and didn't know about it.

Weekender available to members too.

Used to buy it religiously in the 80s & 90s.only time I buy it now is if I’m going on a long railway journey,the newsagent there stocks it.no idea why I buy it  to read the likes of pullein suggesting nicking 1/4 point on corners about some obscure footy match where the arbitrage probably disappeared an hour after it was printed.guess it’s a nostalgia thing makes me feel warm inside

How many pages did the chronicle have ? I reckon no more than five…

Nice to see you are still posting hope you are well, got a few cuts on the hands should i hold on to them.
Ronnie.

I hope your Betting is better than your page assessment.

A Newspaper cannot have an Odd number of pages.

Problem the RFO has always had is that it comes out on a Tuesday and the 48 hr decs for Saturday don't come up until Thursday.
Pullein used to give a huge analysis which six  times out of ten concluded that the price was right so no bet.

Must have been six

Hi Ronnie ,hope you’re well too.pop into  the forum from time to time to see whats going on it’s definitely much quieter these days.had a few ups & downs last couple of years virtually retired these days doing a lot more travelling.all the best to you & family.

You must have so many cuts,I reckon I need to buy you some gloves for Christmas!

It is perhaps due to this thread that the Racing Post has emailed subscribers explaining how to read RFO and the other papers online. You see, we can make a difference!

@Madhatter,

I was first initiated into this great sport via Raceform Update. It had all the form, in similar format to the weekender and great letters pages plus articles. The legendary Che Van der Wheil was introduced to many in this paper. Weekly 'Fineform' advertisement from Clive Holt plus twice a year a chance to save coupons for discounts on the raceform annuals. A superb publication.

@Fatpunt,

With ultimate you get the daily paper at 9pm plus the weekender and rfo. Also pdfs of the specials through the year. You may find this decent value. try the two month discounted trial at 9.99 first i would suggest
