Created by Paul Fowlie and marketed by the Sportsworld Publishing team, A Jump Too Far is a horse racing lay betting system with optional tips.
What is the product?
A Jump Too Far is made up of two main aspects. There is the downloadable betting system (which according to Sportsworld Publishing has been used by Paul Fowlie successfully for 10 years and sold by them for 2 years) and an optional tipster service with selections based on the A Jump Too Far betting system. It is claimed that A Jump Too Far will typically identify 20-40 bets a month with the number rising during the National Hunt season. Put basically, A Jump Too Far is all about identifying horses that will run out of steam before the end of the race and laying these horses. This means that an account will be required through a betting exchange with the most well known example being Betfair. A Jump Too Far is claimed to have an average liability of 6.6/1 although the actual average loss is just 5/1 odds.
What is the investment vs. the rate of return?
The system itself is marketed for £95 for which you get the download as well as a 6 months of selections included. The tipster service on its own is subscription based and is available on a monthly and quarterly basis. These sell for £25 and £60 respectively. There is unfortunately no money back guarantee mentioned which one takes to mean there is nothing in place. In terms of profitability, A Jump Too Far is claimed to have made £23,396.50 over the last few years. This appears to be based of some pretty high stakes however as there are a number of losses run into the four figure mark.
Does the product provide value for money?
Personally I am not convinced that A Jump Too Far does represent value for money, namely down the fact that the liabilities have the potential to be astronomical by all accounts.
Conclusion
A Jump Too Far has shown that it has some potential to make money, however this all depends on how willing you are to engage risk. Some of the odds that you are laying are well into double digits and include 2 point or even 3 points stakes. This risk is demonstrated in numerous examples of bets where A Jump Too Far users would have had to have paid out one thousand plus dollars in a single go. Some people may be ok with this kind of liability but personal I don’t feel that this is good enough for a lay betting system.
