I started this review of The Daily Mirror's Value Scope racing tipster on 01 December 2007 as a record of the results of an average person in the street.

Due to the consistent results Valuescope has been achieving , by the time your paper gets delivered the suggested price is likely to have dropped. So I will post Valuescopes tips each Saturday morning as early as possible (think of me when it's freezing cold and snowing trudging down to the newsagents)

I will also post the results, the prices I was actually able to get, and my profit / loss on a weekly and cumulative basis.

Glad to be of help.
On Value Scope's previous record a win can't be far off.
(Actually a break even would be nice ! lol)

Yes he seems to go on a run so hopefully it will start on saturday! Keep in touch with the news & info it's a real help Paul.

Both horses ran poorly esp Standin Obligation who never got into it and it looked like the ground didn't suit.

One of the reasons I started this blog is because, just like you, I couldn't find any records of Value Scope's actual results over the past 3 years.
I only heard about him in August last year (2007), and I didn't keep proper records until December, so I'm afraid I can't help.
What I will do is put up an extra post this week and see if anyone has any records that they are willing to share.
