Absolutely pathetic not naming the Isiris selections.

It was a good blog, but this is a total sell out IMO.

I've read your blog since day one so firstly, thank you. I have found it very enjoyable and interesting.

I started in day 1 as I am an Isiris member and the dark days of December and early Janurary were getting me down. In a sense your blog gave me a way of calming down and analysing the results.

I just want to add my support to what you do even in its amended form. It is a shame KB is taking this stance but his message from Sunday is typical of his ego over-ruling his brain. In my mind your blog cast a positive light across Isiris – it showed a profit which is the reason we all join.

Anyway, keep up the good work and although the new format is a shame I am in total agreement that you should never bite the hand that feeds you. Well done.

One last point. If you are agreeable, I would like to email you about MH – I am considering joining them.

Obviously mr booth has put the frighteners on you Greg...pity...WHAT HAPPENED TO FREE SPEECH?I'm a member and think KB is shooting himself in the foot..if the service makes a profit and we are all members cos of this, then its the best advert he could ever have for getting new members!What difference does it make holding back the names AFTER they have ran??Be lucky anyway mate...fingers crossed for a good summer after a very poor winter.

Dirk ,
i just wanna add my support and praise on a fascinating blog , look forward to each instalment riveting read , just bcos the names of the selections are missing from heavy handed kb's mob i dont think it detracts from what you are providing he does see a strange person tho !!!, a great service and read , keep it up and good luck on your quest to £30k !!!

Hi DD

The not naming of horses is no big deal to us existing subscribers ... I can see why KB is keen to keep that under wraps.

What was the reason for your not commenting on the main account cancellation? Your take on the days proceedings is what makes your blog successful & enjoyable IMO ... Im hoping that you just overlooked it rather than feeling under any editorial restriction to resist commenting about Horses D & E !

I was disappointed with the cancellation (his record with cancelled bets in the last 18 mths is probably unsurpassed by any tipping service).. I sometimes think that KB becomes "obsessed" with keeping up stats etc (ie the 100% record on bets in those types of races "Race F"!)& perhaps that was the main reason for the cancellation.

It was a similar situation in late 2005 with maintaining the weekly profit... if we'd made £80 by Wednesday he's only risk £75 the rest of the week!.

Obviously Im delighted with the service overall ... he has created the record he (imo) chooses to protect .. he also called bet number 8 in those races spot on .. just a little healthy debate

Keep up the great work
