SBC News Voice of the Sports Betting Industry
It was a tough day for Stuart Tilly in the Tipster Challenge at Bath, as he returned just 0.53 points from big favourite Lapilli (8/15). The CEO from Argyll Entertainment, the operator behind the new Alan Brazil branded sportsbook BetonBrazil, will perhaps regret taking some pointers from Alan himself.
Elsewhere, both Timeform and Stephen Harris, Horse Racing Guru at bettingexpert, collected 1.33 points from Lapilli and Nuclear Power (4/5). SBC News managed to find a third winner in Mia Tesoro (5/2), but remain almost 6 points behind bettingexpert in third place.
Next week’s Guest will take over the reins with a 22.70-point lead at the top of the leaderboard. If you want to be that guest, get in touch with us on Twitter via @SBCGAMINGNEWS.
