Questions

How do I get it?

Straight after payment you get a download button. The book is also kept in your Betfan members area, and we email you a link.

Will it open on my phone?

Yes. It's a PDF, so it opens on any phone, tablet or computer.

Is it for beginners?

Yes. It's written in plain English with worked examples, and there's plenty in it for experienced punters too.

Will it make me money?

No guide can promise that. Sport is unpredictable and losing runs happen to everyone. It shows you how to judge the odds properly, so each bet has a fairer chance of paying its way over time.

Our team of dedicated professional tipsters

They work tirelessly in the background, long before racing starts: form, going, the draw, market moves, the small details most punters never get time to check. They do that work so you don't have to, and so the information that reaches you is the information worth having.
