Race callers clean up
Those who live and breathe horse racing will know that race callers are some of the best tipsters in the business.
Their knowledge and familiarity of tracks often gives them an edge to beat the bookies.
Last week was no exception, with three race callers cracking the Top 10 for most cash profit.
The best of this select group was Tasmanian caller Colin McNiff.
McNiff is a veteran in racing broadcasting, boasting an accomplished career that spans the best part of four decades.
But it's his recent performances that have been the talk of the town, with McNiff in the middle of a hot-streak that has seen him record 6 consecutive profitable tipping days.
Colin McNiff's hot streak
His numbers over the past week have been impressive to say the least.
He has raked in $2,090 in cash profit for everyone who followed his racing tips with $100 bets.
This delivered punters a thumping 139% POT.
If you're looking for some Tasmanian tips, McNiff is definitely your man.
Terry Bailey was the next race caller who recorded a solid profit for his followers.
Some would argue that Bailey is one of Victoria's best judges of a horse, proving his worth again in 2019 after making a profit from 757 tips posted during the year.
He's certainly seen enough of them in his career to know what he's looking for.
His profit over the past week came in just shy of $2K, after five of his racing tips got home at a juicy average price of $7.38.
But it's not just this week where Bailey has performed.
In fact, over the past 180 days, he's sitting on a profit of $4,300 from $100 win bets.
That ranks him in the top 5 of all Australian media tipsters over this time period who are verified on our site.
And after a huge 2019, he's already picked up where he left off.

The third and final race caller to crack the top 10 was Queenslander Josh Fleming.
This SKY Racing caller was on fire at the Gold Coast's crazy Magic Millions meet on Saturday.
Through all the chaos, Fleming's sharp form analysis had punters' wallets filled for a big night out on the Gold Coast strip.
Incredibly, Fleming tipped 7 of the 9 winners on the card.

Looking at the week in total, and Fleming had 13 winners, at an outstanding strike rate of 41%.
This generated a very tidy cash profit of $1,760 from $100 win bets.
The race callers certainly kicked off 2020 in style.
But now onto the punters, who also put in a fine display of tipping this week.
Pro punter Leumas ended up with some outstanding numbers, having found $3,720 at a mammoth 413% POT.
This was largely thanks to a roughie he tipped in the Magic Millions 2YO Classic.
This punter got a hold of Away Game, which saluted at 40/1 odds.
If you're thinking that this tip was a fluke, think again.
That's because Leumas is now showing a profit of $4,200 from $100 win bets over the past 30 days.
He's one to keep your eye on in the coming weeks.
The final mention goes to LuckyStar, who has featured in this article dozens of times over the years.
This week, he finished up with an enormous profit of $5,730.
Despite finding 15 winners, it was one that made all the difference.
That's because LuckyStar was one of the lucky few who tipped Always Chattin' at Geelong last Thursday.
This bolter got home at the monster odds of $136.00.
We have our first candidate for the biggest winning rougie tip of 2020.
