    What is "predatory pricing"?

    Off course SP returns need investigating ....... I am aware of an incident recently where on track there was a punter close to the off of a race trying to place a £1000 EW on a horse at 6's which was freely available with most of the bookmakers - the starting price returned was 7/2.

    The 2025 Longshot Thread

    After drifting overnight I simply had to step in again at 125/1 EW 4 Places and 40/1 for the Top 3 finish .... and also a little at 100's & 33's. I can't see the horse winning, but on that ground is a sporting bet for a top 4 finish and simply too big a price. Finger crossed for a good run.

    The 2025 Longshot Thread

    1.00 Epsom - Kindest Nation has plenty to find on the book to be competitive in a tricky looking contest. However she will greatly appreciate all this forecast rain and can run better than her odds suggest. 66/1 with 4 places ( 365/Sky ) 1.5pt EW & 22/1 Top 3 finish ( 365 ) 2pts I've tipped...

    Two third placing and a runner up ........ 4.00pts Staked 10.11pts Returned or 11.20pts ( if able to get the 5/1 boosts ) Better than a poke in the eye.

    4.17 Leicester - Kurios George top 3 finish 12/1 with Boylesports maybe worth an interest, much lower elsewhere

    4.35 Market Rasen Malinheadsearovers - minimum EW @66/1 in the hope of a place. Main bet of the day is 7.15 Windsor Mythical Composer EW 6/1 ( Sky Bet Paying 4 Places ) - should hopefully be thereabouts.

    Blazing Bobcat has now drifted to 20/1 for a Top 3 finish with Bet365 , risking another 1pt - stable has done well with the family.

    4.25 Chepstow - looks likely to go to one of the pair at the head of the market ( El Matador or Sea Poetry ) however 3rd place is not as straightforward. Looking at the Top 3 market may offer better value - Blazing Bobcat 10/1 ( Fred ) 3pts, Llangynin Lass 33/1 ( 365 ) 1pt and Maury 66/1 (...

    Whats the best horse youve seen race live

    The first race meeting that I ever attended as a 13 year old kid was Red Rum's historic third Grand national win in 1977 , the race prior to that was the Templegate Aintree Hurdle which saw two of the greatest hurdlers - Night Nurse & Monksfield Dead Heat - not only was it the best that I have...

    2.58 Fontwell - Sunday The Bold Thady ....... EW 4/1 Bet365 paying 3 Places ( instead of 2 ) looks a spot of value - generally 5/2 paying 1-2, will hopefully find a couple of others for a multi bet too

    Take it from me, it is a waste of time even considering a punt the evening before if you want any longevity on your account. I spent long enough working in the industry, it is a completely different business to what it was 20yrs ago or more and anybody winning or even beating the odds will soon...
