Introducing Our New Payment for the Tipping Product
Hi Guys and Girls,
A special apology for the issue with our tips being unable to be downloaded. This was due to a problem with Cheryl not fully understanding the technology.
In hindsight, it turned out to be a bit of a godsend, and probably the worst time of the year to introduce our paid racing product. A fair bit of time and work goes into preparing the product for a successful download and I for one am not disappointed with the decision to hold off.
Recent Results & Racing Notes
It was probably the worst and hardest time of the year to select winners. Cheryl did send the tips out around 12:30, but by then the rains had come and we were already up to race 3, having tipped the winner of the first, WAR ETERNAL at 4/1.
We also tipped the Race 4 winner, SKYHOOK, and Race 7 winner, TROM BOLT at $1.80. However, the track was well and truly rain affected and ended up a Heavy 10.
No wonder the southern horses took out The Straddy and the World Pool last race, depriving our horses who rarely run on Heavy 10 tracks compared to the southern visitors.
Follow both horses, Rothfire and Half Yours, into the spring, as well as Alalcance, trained by Gai and Adrian. He looks a strong chance for the Metropolitan in Sydney. We tipped Alalcance on 10,000 Day at 15/1.
Important Update
To cut a long story short, I am pleased the issue occurred as I was not happy with the timing.
For the next 10 weeks, during July and August, there is not much Black-Type racing except for country cups such as Ipswich, Toowoomba and others. I will do the best I can, but we will not introduce the new payment product until September.
From September, the product will be available at a cost of $25 GST inclusive per week, with tips available to download on Saturdays only. Tips will no longer be downloaded on Fridays, as we will be cherry-picking selected races.
Free Tips Until End of August
Cheryl will send the tips by email around 11:00am Saturday mornings until the end of August, free of charge.
Our new subscription product will commence on the first Saturday of September. Tips will be available to download from our website from 11:00am onwards.
