This site is for information purposes only and is not intended for anyone under the age of 18. Please make sure that you are a responsible gambler.

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.

Can Anyone Help???

I only started keeping a record of Value Scope's results in December 2007.

I have been asked by a number of people if there are any records of Value Scope's results over 2005, 2006 & 2007. Nobody has been able to find any on the net.
Does anyone know if there are any records anywhere on the net or does anyone have any information they can share with the other visitors?

The FAQ is
1) What is the length of his loosing streaks?
2) The loss for those periods?
3) How many winning weeks per year?

All the Mirror seems to publish is the points profit for each year.

Hope someone can help

Value Scope Profit for December 2007

On Saturday 30 December, The Mirror published the profit made by Value Scope for the year to date as 370.75 points. His tip for that day lost 3 points so the overall profit for the year was 367.75 Points


On Saturday 01 December, The Mirror published the annual profit for the year to date as 312 Points.


So the profit for December based on the prices quoted in The Daily Mirror, was 55.75 Points.

Using the stakes suggested by Valuescope my actual profit for December was 40.5 Points.

So for the first month of the Valuescope Racing Tips experiment I have achieved 72.5% of the published profit.
