A Doggy Ditty

21st May 2018

Hello

Many punters do not even consider Greyhounds as a sport that warrants their attention but are they missing out on potential profits?

Over the last 3 months we have been looking at 2 long established Greyhound Tipsters to check out the potential and of course see who might come out in front.

The services we have reviewed are Premier Greyhounds which is published through the Betting Gods umbrella and The Judge who is looked after by the Betfan group. We appreciate there are other greyhound services available but we have to start somewhere – if you think another service is worthy of comparison then please let me know and I will try to add it to the competition.

In practical terms there is not much to choose between the 2 services. Both advise their selections by email and they can also be accessed via password protected areas on the publisher’s websites. On signing up you receive a welcome email detailing the staking plan and betting bank advice. Premier advises a 100 point bank while The Judge 200. Staking of up to 5 points is individually advised with selections.

The main differences between the services are with the number of bets advised with Premier being quite sparing (57 bets in 3 months) while The Judge – who only bets on Open races – has offered more than 300 in the same period. Both make straight wins the focus with occasional each way tips and the Judge sometimes offers forecasts as a stake saving alternative.

There is usually some analysis from Premier while The Judge gets his tips out as soon as he identifies them to try and ensure the maximum value. A look at the detailed results will show both tend to beat the SP with their selections.

But who is leading the race for profit? My full reviews can be seen on the links given above but these charts will give you a good idea of the situation. The initial betting bank is the same for both services at £1,000 giving a £10 point value for Premier and £5 for The Judge:

The Judge has made good progress after a slow start with 169 points profit at a very respectable ROI of 14.55%. Premier has not fared so well with a 30 point drawdown over the same period – but I would not write them off just yet. I looked at the service 3 years ago and it had a similar barren spell initially before generating strong profits over a sustained period. The historic performance of The Judge is also good over the long term.

I know Bet World Review members are serious punters who want to see profits from their betting activities. At a cost of less than £3 per point profit you could do a lot worse than consider subscribing to The Judge’s service.

Next time I am going to look at some lay betting services – it should be easy to find losers should it not? But is it? Also keep an eye out for a simple way to profit from football even though the season has now ended.

Take care
