Contrarian horse racing advice you can't get anywhere else...

Nick Pullen’s Against the Crowd delivers contrarian racing analysis and advice throughout the week.

The emphasis is on challenging and – where appropriate – opposing market sentiment. The objective is to identify and bet the horses the market under-values at the prices.

Opposing the consensus view and finding the value in the market is the ONLY way to make money from race-betting over the long term. It won’t cost you a single penny to find out how we get that job done….

Put our Against the Crowd service to the test today – sign up for a one-month RISK-FREE trial of unique analysis and contrarian advice you won’t find anywhere else...

Just the one race is of interest on Friday at Aintree….
…. figuring out which horses are fit and firing is a matter of guesswork….
…. but there’s a dark horse that ticks boxes and could well be primed to outrun his odds….

I don’t tell you how much to bet or how to bet….
I don’t do staking plans, and I don’t rate bets on a points scale….
But I don’t do what I don’t do for good reason….

'...got double bubble on the winner!...'

"Well done this afternoon mate. Best thing was, going for best odds, I thought I'd backed each horse with different bookies. Turns out I cocked up and backed Advertised twice so got double bubble on the winner!"

Ian F (Oct 2026)

'...I like the way you work picking value horses...'

"I have had many tipsters over many years and I like the way you work picking value horses. Most of the comments you get are from people that don't really gamble and don't know the long term objectives. Bad spells and good spells, but in the long term still making a profit. Keep up the good work."

Ron D (Oct 2026)

'...Love your views, keep up the good work...'

'...it romped home...'

"You tipped a horse called Al Shabab Storm at Newcastle a few weeks ago. I bet it at 14s and it drifted to 22s so I backed it again at 22/1 (I'm sure it hit 28s but I missed that) and it romped home. So not all drifters are doomed. As an old friend used to say the horse doesn't know what price he is."

Thomas D (Aug 2026)

'...very pleased with how things have gone...'

"I joined your service just before Royal Ascot and am very pleased with how things have gone. I paid £39 for 3 months which is £3 per week and less than £1 per selection. I am only on modest stakes of £3 each way, but, have my subscription with plenty to spare. I appreciate what you are doing and hope that things keep moving in the direction the last 2 months have."
