Some of you probably keep a much closer eye on the markets than I do.

During the big midweek festivals, I tend to have to bet the night before as I can't access betting sites from work. Previously, it annoyed me that I could back something at 9.30pm only to pick up the RP next day and see the same horse a couple of points longer with the same firm. Now that several bookies go best odds guaranteed from the final decs stage, I'm quite happy to bet with them although I still occasionally lose out.

Can anyone say when the odds change from the previous evening to those published in the RP? I know 10.30pm-ish was when some bookies prices seemed to be no longer on offer online. Is that all it is? Wait and see?
 
The prices published in the Racing Post will be available from the time of opening on the relevant morning. So for most firms that will be around 8am for the Pricewise/televised races.
