BANGARANGA WINS EUROVISION
18th May 2026
Many NMP members enjoy having a bet on Eurovision and this year was no exception with a number of ante post bets advised on record (they were sent via e-mail this year rather than posted on the website).
Although our main ante post fancy, Denmark, were big drifters after being handed a bad slot in the running order by the producers, and finished out of the frame in seventh, we backed Romania EW (12/1, third), Bulgaria 11/4 for a top 10 finish and Moldova for a top 10 finish (15/8), all of which copped. We also had a small chancey bet on Norway (14th) for the top 10 that went very close too!
Bulgaria actually won the whole competition with their catchy track, Bangaranga!

Cheltenham 2026 sign up offer
4th February 2026
The 2026 Cheltenham Festival is now less than five weeks away so I am offering a sign-up offer to new/returning members - sign up for £45 to cover all bets through until 4th April 2026.
Our new AW system selections are flying and we've added +16 pts in January to the +21 pts generated in December - we're +37 pts up from 177 pts staked on the current service so far (+21% ROI). Recent winners are listed in the focus box on the side of this page but include Hitched (7/1), Knight Templar (11/2) and Dapper Gee Gee (8/1). We also landed a mammoth treble last Friday that returned 215/1 from 7/2, 7/1 and 5/1 winners (Doctor Khan Junior, Hitched and Three Non Blondes) on the AW :-)
Please find sign up details on the how to join link - membership is £45 for all bets from now until the 4th April 2026.
