    Is There Any Good Bookies These Days ?

    It would be nice to find out the full details - however, bookmakers are rarely forthcoming & will quote client confidentiality. There are definitely lots of cases of unscrupulous punters out there, who have basically been responsible for genuine backers having trouble getting on. But this...

    Is There Any Good Bookies These Days ?

    Take a look at the last paragraph of this reply to a customer from his online bookmaker - it is taken from Twitter after the customer was unable to take winnings out of his account. It is very worrying for the future of anybody that has accounts. I'm sure if the customer lost continuously then...

    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 (...
