🐎 HERE COMES GEORGIE 🥇 @ 3/1
For @oddschecker
One of many firsts for the winner:
🔹First time runner for Dan Skelton
🔹First time ride for Harry
🔹First time after a wind op
🔹First time hood & tongue tie
Most importantly, he finished🥇
The Skelton’s continue the good form and a nice winner with one left to run at the end of the card
They are an exceptional training outfit 👏
Harry’s tactical nous is now brilliant and whatever they are doing in Alcester is working!
The Skelton machine will just keep rolling and that Pipe record could be smashed 💥
🤷🏻♂️ Perhaps there is value in this for some people.
I documented my journey of Tipstar from 2024 with @RacingTV
This year:
1️⃣ Preview a race
2️⃣ Preview another race
3️⃣ The Final 🤞
I didn’t enter the competition as the most knowledgeable, nor the most articulate, and certainly not with the most experience.
But I’d like to think that I was the best prepared.
Don’t concentrate on finding a winner.
Concentrate on being able to make a good analysis of a race.
You don’t have to be word perfect, just be yourself, prepare, and it could open doors to a brilliant career.
Tipstar has done that for so many people and even those who didn’t win the competition are now working in the sport.
Good luck.
Get involved 👍
⭐️ MY TIPSTAR JOURNEY
A bit apprehensive of posting this but tried to document the planning and research I did, in the lead up to The Tipstar Final. The intention being that it may be useful to someone else, in the future.
A big thank you to @Halligan88 for editing the 50 minutes of waffle I put together 👊
1️⃣ How I got here…
🟢🔵 Oddschecker returns to be FOC!
From the 27th of this month the platform will be free to users for all tipping and racing content along with the betting tools everyone enjoys!
Hopefully we can point people in the direction of a winner or two with some insightful content alongside our tips 👍
📺 If you want a career in this amazing sport then Tipstar can provide you with that platform.
As a working class lad with no connections to the sport I would not have a career in racing without this competition ⭐️
Get out of your own way, prepare sufficiently, and the opportunities will come!
It’s a special feeling to wake up everyday and for your “job” not to feel like “work”
"You have absolutely nothing to lose."
Great to hear from joint-winner Liam Firkin @AntepostValue about his TipStar experience from two years ago.
The competition is back this year after a break - and we want to hear from you! #Tipstar2026

🐴Cheltenham October Meeting Preview!
🎙️ @AntepostValue @RacingGav @kieran_clavin
🗣️Lucky 15: 14/1 ➡️ 16/1 ➡️ 25/1 ➡️ 33/1

Think this has a lot of merit!
As a starting point…would an opportunity on the biggest stage (Cheltenham) be an opportunity to help feed the sport and try to level the playing field…
You could have 1️⃣ race that is:
Irish vs British:
10 🇬🇧 trained
10 🇮🇪 trained
2m4f Hurdle
Conditions:
1️⃣ Must have won a race during the season leading into the Festival (or something of this nature to maintain quality of the field)
2️⃣ Only open to trainers with less than X winners in a season or X number of horses in training
3️⃣ Only open to owners of less than X horses
4️⃣ A forced sales race where all participants are available for purchase (no reserve pricing) which may prevent a powerful owner putting a horse in the race, under a different name/training operation, otherwise they would have to then buy their own horse back at an inflated price
Might be riddled with faults but I think we can get more inventive with the whole race program….

“We could see the force of old and his price could be made to look extraordinarily generous come the end of the race.”
