Mystic Tips Review: Australian Horse Racing Tips Service

Written by Laura Turner

Mystic Tips review

Mystic Tips is quite a rarity, as they are one of the few betting services around that provide Australian horse racing tips.

It's difficult to find tipsters that focus solely on horse racing from Australia and the ones that we have found seem to come with quite a large price tag.

Mystic Tips is from the Betting Gods platform, so you can expect a more affordable subscription fee and often there is a trial price available, so you can try the service out first before paying the full price.

The tipster behind the service is Michelle, who made a great impression during her proofing period with all four months finishing with a profit. Since December 2022 to the time of writing, she has made a total of 74.83 points profit at an ROI of 9.37%.

The service advertises quite a high volume of bets with an average of 113 tips per month sent by email. The tips are also available in the member's area of the website or on the Betting Gods app for mobile devices.

We were expecting to be betting on race favourites mostly, as the average odds during the past four months worked out at 2.02.

There are several UK bookmakers that have markets available on Australian horse racing and also Betfair Exchange. We aimed to find out the best way to get bets on and reported back with results at the odds we were able to find.

Read on for our full Mystic Tips review, or click here to get started.

Month One Update

It wasn't a great start to our Mystic Tips review with a 10.2% decrease to our starting bank of 75 points in the first month.

The average odds for the selections were 1.85 but this average was brought up by a few higher odds win bets. The majority of the bets were below 1.60 as they were in the place market.

We had recorded our results at bookmaker odds but we also put an order in an Betfair at the advised odds to see if it would be matched. Liquidity was poor at Betfair but often the bet was matched eventually, or we left it to be placed at SP otherwise.

As you can see in our results below, the Betfair results were slightly worse than at the bookmakers.

For the place bets, the only bookmaker that we could find them at was Bet365.

Month Two Update

We lost 2.26 points at the available odds in month two of our Mystic Tips review, which worked out as a loss of 9.91 points for the two months in total.

It had been two disappointing months for the tipster but we kept positive that results would improve in month three.

Month Three Update

We began to pull some profit back in month three of our Mystic Tips review, which was great news. Unfortunately, soon after this, the service suddenly became a struggle for us to use.

There were a batch of 10 bets that we just couldn't find listed anywhere. For the most part during our review, we had been able to find the Australian racing markets at Betfair Exchange and Bet365, but we couldn't find these at either.

It became a bit patchy after that, with some available and some not, so we made the decision to cut our review short.

Review Summary

After two and a half months of tracking tips provided by Mystic Tips, we finished with a small loss of 3.35 points at the available odds and 8.4 points lost at Betfair odds.

We made the decision to cut the review short as we began to have to trouble finding the markets on Betfair or popular bookmakers. We are sure that the markets would have been more readily available for those based in Australia, but we were reviewing the service based on being in the UK.

When we first started the review, the tipster posted advised odds that were listed mostly at Bet365, but later it started changing to betting at SP.

It was a shame that we couldn't continue with our review of this service, but when it becomes an effort to find where to put bets on, it becomes a waste of our time and yours.

We have given the service a neutral rating as we can't tell either way whether it would be profitable to follow it.
