Dean 'Midas' Maynard has received widespread acclaim in the UK and USA for his psychic ability to predict and bring good luck to high profile celebrities and sports teams.
Until now Dean has mostly concentrated his efforts on sports such as football and baseball, while also working closely with the ‘X-Factor’, ‘Dancing on Ice’ and ‘I’d do Anything’.
However, Dean has a good record with other sporting events as well including a hat-trick of Grand National prediction wins over a team of professional tipsters in 2007, 2008 and 2009
It is because of this particular string of predictions that online racing magazine EclipseMagazine.co.uk contacted him to invite him to be their Psychic Tipster.
Eclipse Magazine came to light 18 months ago with one mission in mind – to make horseracing more accessible to the British public.
Nearly three quarters of the people who go racing each year qualify as ‘Social Racegoers’ and it seemed to editor Karen Taylor that there was a significant lack of information available to people who enjoy the social side of racing.
The webzine was launched to address this gap and since then Eclipse’s readership has increased exponentially as people discover its mix of interviews, fashion, betting advice, beginners’ guides and fun competitions. The Guide to Christmas at the Racecourses is a huge hit with readers, while the NagWAG Diaries gives a fascinating peek into life as the wife of a jockey.
Eclipse also aims to demystify and de-jargon many aspects of the sport, including betting, and recently worked with BetFred to create BetFredforLadies.com: a site dedicated to betting, for people who like a punt but who also want to learn a little bit more about how to best place that bet.
But for more whimsical bettors – those who bet on favourite colours or numbers or ‘nice’ horse names, for example – a whole new approach was required! When Eclipse heard about Dean Maynard they knew that he was the man to head up their ‘Flutterology’ Section – which includes such scientific tools as the Betting Horoscopes, The Magic Fate Ball and a Flutter Fortune Cookie to help with decision making.
Following his success tipping Newmarket’s Champions Day, Dean agreed to stick his neck out and tip all seven of the races at the WBX.com Fighting Fifth Hurdle on Saturday at Newcastle Racecourse.
If you want to know what Dean thinks will win, then check with EclipseMagazine.co.uk on Friday 27th November. He’s not called "The Simon Cowell of the Psychic world" and "Football's most famous fortune teller" for nothing.
It’ll be an accumulator to end all accumulators. How scared will the bookies be if he gets it right again?
