Ben Linfoot tipping record including his current 'The Verdict' column.
Ben Linfoot is our Head of Racing Tipping & Analysis having worked at Sporting Life since 2005. He devised our leading Value Bet column in 2010 and established +290pts of profit for the column over a decade by searching for big-priced winners on a Saturday and at the big festivals. In 2020 he handed the reins over to colleague Matt Brocklebank who has done a great job with the concept as you can see here. Ben now writes his ‘Verdict’ column for Saturdays and the big festivals, trying to keep that ROI ticking over at a healthy rate by pinpointing winners from all areas of the market in the big races.
