The current ROI for the racing services portfolio currently sits at 11.18%, the ROC at 27.6%. Anything north of 10% for horse racing betting is fine by me, so all told, I have to be happy enough.
As is always the way though, I want more! With the return of Racing Service 1 in the autumn, I’m hoping “more” will materialize. It usually does.
As for the services who provide tips all year round, then I have to profess satisfaction with Bet Alchemist. I understand from others that I was fortunate enough to miss some losers earlier in the year, and I remember well benefiting from Best Odds Guaranteed – a rare luxury offered by a bookmaker with which I had opened a new account – with one big priced winner, which collectively meant my figures with BA exceeded the official results, and by quite some margin. Whether that has evened itself out any through my recent holidays, I dare not check!
The highlight of Northern Monkey’s year to date has undoubtedly been a very successful Cheltenham Festival, but the summer has not taken off to any extent, and that is disappointing when we consider that over the years, NMP’s more profitable times seem to come over the midsummer months. That can’t always be the case of course, and whilst I have no concerns over the service’s ongoing long term profitability, this year’s lack of summer profit has been a source of frustration (and probably, impatience on my part).
As for Precision Value, well 2021 has been something of a rollercoaster ride. Down, then a strong recovery and up, and then a sizable drawdown. Perhaps the wet weather has messed too much with ground conditions this year, and that is why some services are struggling at a traditionally strong time.
So all in all, the racing portfolio is ticking along ok (remember that 11% ROI) without pulling up any trees. I have no worries about any of the services being followed. It’s more a case of just waiting for things to click, I feel.
Onwards and upwards.
