Bet Synergy – Final Review

So, we’ve come to the end of our test of Bet Synergy and I have to say it’s been a bit of a disappointment. I had heard from a few different sources that it was a great product, produced some great winners at great prices, and was to be highly recommended. I’m afraid our test hasn’t borne out those claims, or backed up those other reviews.

To recap – Bet Synergy basically has you checking bookies against the exchanges and looking out for three particular trends which signal a horse has a good chance of winning. In principle I agree with the theory behind it, it makes sense, in practice however it just didn’t seem to work out. The guide doesn’t give any specific times to check but does suggest that a check around lunchtime should find a few selections but waiting until around 30 minutes before the off should be a bit more accurate. To be honest, I found none of these methods found me many selections and was checking most races right up until the final minute before the off. Even then, I wasn’t bombarded with selections, and found very few winners for a fair amount of work.

There is also very little chance of having the same selections as anyone else as it really will depend on what time you can/do check the markets. Punter ‘A’ might find he has three or four qualifiers and wins in two of them while Punter ‘B’ might find five or six and lose every one!

To be fair to Bet Synergy, we did finish the test in profit of just over 9% on the bank for the month, which is better than you’ll find at your local high street bank, and we found a good priced winner or two along the way with some decent priced placed horses too, which suggests it’s not all doom and gloom. It may even have been a bad time of year with the change to the flat season, but we have to base this review on what happened during our test and I’m afraid I can’t really give it a big thumbs up.

Having said that, I’m not inclined to give it a thumbs down either, because as I said earlier I understand the logic behind Bet Synergy, and we did end the month in profit. I think the best I can do is give it a bit of a neutral rating. There is promise there, undoubtedly, and some of the emails I received during the month backed that up. More than one of the emails suggested I dropped two of the trends the system tells you to look for and I’d have more success. I decided against that as that isn’t what the guide suggests and for the purposes of the test I wanted to stick rigidly to the rules. Perhaps dropping it to one trend may indeed have produced more selections and winners, I can’t really say although I do have a gut feeling it would have.

So, overall I’d give Bet Synergy a five out of ten rating. I’m sorry I can’t be more definitive than that, I see promise in it but that wasn’t fulfilled in our test.
