Well done Mick, great shout.
But the thread is getting throttled by fancies, not actual tips, which is why I stopped posting.
Can't argue with a nice winner though. :-)

Word for this one, jumping well and should be bang there. Again it's a beginners chase so many unknowns in the race so bet accordingly. Boyles only go 9/2 so shop around.

The're lumping on this one,2/1 now with Lads.

BringBackMick

Big money is being put on Tulsa Jack at the moment though.

Serious dosh.

Thanks lad. Needed that. Managed to get on at the fancier prices. 20 cents in the € rule 4 a bit harsh as won at a canter.

A rotten rule 4, 20p in the pound was a bit much now! Just seen that. Got 15/2 myself. Ladbrokes went 8s but they wouldn't lay peanuts.

Ah now that makes no sense! If you stop then it'll be (nearly) only fancies

I think everyone needs to take notice of this. I'm more of a lurker here but it's in all our best interest not to 'scare off' the really good tippers like lorenzo87. I for one have made a lot of money from their solid and consistent tipping but I can see how people like him would get frustrated at the posts here lately.

For what it's worth lorenzo87, should you choose not to post here anymore, thank you for everything.

Who's throwing up fancies?

I'm not in a position to criticise any individual so I choose my words carefully and I'm certainly not going to quote or name names. Going back the last week or two or three there have been a few posts that pretty obviously would have been better placed in the fancies thread.

A few were deleted/moved as far as I can see. Don't know if this was by the 'tippers' themselves or a mod.

stooge

Some great winners on here lately. Got Pumbaa quite late so the price wasnt great but a nice winner all the same.

(FWIW IMO on a forum like this there is no real distinction between tip and fancy. Its a matter of recognising those who post winners regulary whether they are tips, fancies or blind picks. )

bladespin

Well said stooge, take them as nothing more than suggestions and make up your own mind, love this thread and the great work by so many contributors, always appreciate a nod and miss Lorenzo's posts, he had some dingers!

Their is a big distinction between a tip and a fancy. People posting should say it's a tip and a little bit of info. People like Lorenzo and Shmee are regulars and have said they only post actual tips.

When people start coming in and saying a horse and a time without saying it's a tip it get's messy. I have noticed the last few days their have been several horses posted here that should have been in the fancies thread.

This page is not for recognizing those who put up past winners as a gauge whether it's a tip or not. It's fairly easy to put fancies in the fancy's thread and tip's declaring it as a tip in here. Then you can decide to make up your own mind whether you want to follow or not.

It's simple things like this that ruined the tips part on the horse racing forum. It's a pity that someone like Lorenzo has stopped posting because of this. Hope he comes back he obviously has some very good contacts and gave out some very good winners.

Anywho

Just got text

"Teak running in Newmarket on Saturday worth an each way bet. From the Breeder Gay Veitch"

This is the Betfred Cesarewitch with 34 runners so am sure there will be extra place paid in most shops.

thesandeman

Maybe the thread should be renamed 'The Inside Information Thread' or similar.
I honestly believe that some of the posters here genuinely don't know the difference between a tip and a fancy and think they are contributing.

Interesting point now that you say it.

In general people i know who don't back often always ask me have i any tips meaning do i fancy anything.

TrueDub

Folks, to repeat myself: people post information. It's up to you, the reader, to decide on it's veracity or otherwise, and act accordingly.
