In the latest SBC Podcast I am joined by a fascinating guest who’s service was the at the centre of the latest SBC Magazine.
Thomas Pearson is the owner/operator of the service that bears his name and he has built up a very impressive record since he started his horse racing tipping at the start of 2023.
Big prices, big winners and 20%+ returns to Betfair SP have made him popular with a wide ranging audience and in this chat we discuss all aspects of his service alongside his journey to get here and his own personal betting.
Thomas’s Fair Odds Policy was also a big part of our chat as we went through what he does, why he does it and how this compares to the rest of the tipster market (of who many have no qualms in taking the best prices before markets have even formed!).

- Thomas’s favourite types of races for betting & tipping
- Tissue pricing & other ways to determine price
- What makes a horse value? How does a race set up help?
- Thomas’s favourite code & race types

Thomas was a great guest and the way he runs his service is both innovative and refreshing.
One quote that stood out in our chat was ‘One thing I would say is… a tipster’s record…if you’re following them, you should be able to better them.‘ – I wholeheartedly agree!
I hope that you enjoy the listen!
