Tipster Challenge: No Heretic gives bettingexpert a lift

Shannon2It was a good week for the bottom half of the Tipster Challenge table at Chester, as Timeform landed 4 winners for a total of 8.33 points, and Stephen Harris of bettingexpert picked the longest odds winner of the day in No Heretic (11/1).

Despite that long odds success, SBC News were able to move further clear at the top, as 21bet could only return the 1 winner with Mulk (30/100). Sarah Shannon, a sports writer for the company, was unlucky on several occasions throughout the day, and 0.30 points was a harsh return from 5/7 top 3 finishes.

Meanwhile, SBC were successful with 3 horses, but Red Verdon was the only one of those to go off at better than Evens. See below for the full list of race winners at Chester, and the latest Tipster Challenge table after 16 weeks of racing action!

Race Winners at Chester:

  1. Copper Knight – 11/4
  2. Somehow – 8/15
  3. No Heretic – 11/1

  5. Sir Maximilian – 5/2
  6. Mulk – 30/100
  7. Red Verdon – 5/2
