Can I have a one month trial for $100?

No. We invest considerable effort in trying to get punters to take a longer term perspective and it would be hypocritical to profit from such an unrepresentative package. We have a vast amount of information on our site, including regular updates in Pro-Punter News.

We have a large file of e-mails and letters from our valued clients and visitors, all of them verifiable. Unlike some businesses, we do not write our own testimonials. This shabby practice deserves to be exposed wherever it can be shown to be happening.

We even have current users of our information who are prepared to talk to serious, prospective purchasers of our premium betting package.

How many races do you rate?

On a Saturday we average about twelve races from across the country. If you check the Pro-Punter News you will find the number of races rated for each Saturday. We are very selective about public holiday meetings and the weaker racing of Wednesdays and Sundays where we might only rate a couple of races at the most, often dismissing entire meetings. Because we are extremely selective we are usually successful when we choose to bet on those days.

How many horses do you rate per race?

We usually rate about six horses per race. Additional horses are given to help punters who wish to bet wider with trifectas and first fours.

Why aren't your ratings for Saturday ever ready by noon or 1pm on Friday?

We won't give you rubbish like the racing services that give you selections for $33 midday Friday. If there is an overnight storm as often happens in Brisbane, the track will change from good to heavy and Friday's information is useless. Also, scratchings are important because they change the way the race is run. We have to wait for these.

Why don't you publish all price assessments in the newsletter each week?

When we first started on the web, we did not publish our ratings nor any price assessments and people asked us this very question. So we took an unprecedented step in the racing industry at the time and published all our selections in every race, every week, at considerable cost to us.

Looking at the web server logs we noticed that only a handful of people were actually checking them out so we stopped the publication of the ratings. It wasn't worth the trouble and expense. People who want to believe that the information we print is not genuine will continue to do so, no matter what we put on the web.

If you are so good why don't you guarantee a profit?

No service should ever guarantee a profit. That is completely irresponsible.While past results can indicate a strong and reliable selection method there is no guarantee that those results will continue into the future.

The famous punter Don Scott, who was way ahead of his time, once went a full year in which he lost a considerable amount of money. Yet he was someone actually able to influence the betting market to get the prices he wanted on his selections. There was nothing wrong with his selections, his staking, or the prices he got. It was simply a bad statistical run, part of the great unknown of betting on horses.
