So the model seems to be about building a strong and continuous social media profile, more so especially during periods such as Cheltenham week, when casual viewership spikes with many tuning in who don’t know the sport that well, while only leasing horses (12/24 months?) rather than owning them outright, and positioning yourself as the 'syndicate manager.'

It does make you wonder how much he’s actually pulling in through syndicate management fees and associated costs. He sounds like a sort who would be running up to Matt Champan for an interview, whereas it's usually Matt who does the chasing.

Report swiftynifty March 20, 2026 11:56 AM GMT
agree FOYLESWAR, you need to have an idea of what price your selection should be. If it is 10-1 the night before, but you can't get on, if it is 8-1 in the morning, but you can't get on, and if it is now 5-1 at race time, it has become bad value (in your opinion). No one can win long term backing 10-1 shots at 5-1. So ace, value is everything because at the end of the day it's a numbers game and you need twice as many 5-1 winners as 10-1 winners to be in the same position. So the combination of bookie restrictions and Betfair card marking has made pro-punting pre-race for form readers unviable today for the majority. No doubt some still win, managing to get on a top price, inside info etc but I'd imagine there's very few.
You could say with BOG (if you get it, which if you win a lot you won't) the drifters would could offset the shorteners, but difters don't win....do they?!
Report TameTheTiger March 20, 2026 12:01 PM GMT
value only becomes unmistakingly apparent after the race, win lose or draw. if your 16/1 bet gets beat a nose, you lost but you had value imo. my 75 bets bets this week overall were without doubt value because im +33. some of the 42 losers were beaten out of sight, so they clearly were not value, but i didnt know that until after the race. i had 2 losers matched at 1.05 in running, id say those were value bets.on an individual bet basis its all subjective until after the result is known.your p/l at the end of the day/week/month/year tells you if you had value overall on your bets, and how much value you had.
