KIEREN FALLON Ex. Jockey - any good as a tipster ?
Kieren Fallon may have been a good jockey. However, what is he like as a "TIPSTER" ? He is currently asking "Odds to £50" for each winner.
Looking at the past record of retired jockeys as tipsters fills me with anger. Not ONE has managed to make it. Even Lester Pigott Eddie Hyde and many others failed dismally. Have YOU any experience of Fallon as a Tipster ? OR is this just another CON ? Your views please. Many thanks

Though I do my own handicapping, (which is a skill learned over time) I found your question quite interesting. As far as, "Tipster's" are concerned, no matter who they are, retired jockeys or professional gamblers, always keep this in mind;
A 'Tipster' simply bases everything off their own opinion of how they see a race playing out. They are in the business of furnishing 'tips' for betting purposes, without any guarantee. Since they have no Devine way of actually knowing who the winner of a horse race would be, their opinion is based on the influence of chance, purely speculation.
