Don't use the App, use mobile data and go through the website, I travel a lot for work and have never had an issue.

Thanks, I have tried in past, I will give it another go. Should I uninstall the app ?
Just tried my wife's iPad, got a message saying I was in Spain so could not access. I have the same problem with Will but not Paddy. Perhaps I should try accessing with data rather than wifi ?

Hewick showed his well being yesterday by fairly running away from a decent lot at Thurles.
He will be spot on, given decent ground.
He looks a bet for nostalgic stopped clock romantics like myself !

And the bookies cut its odds in half.ffs
 
I had a bet on Idas Boy last night at 100/1. Don’t know anything about him and I think it was just because his name reminded me of a horse called Idas Delight that used to race round Desert Orchids time and I always thought he was the sort of horse I’d love to own. Just looked him up and his damsire is Witness Box who does seem to provide a bit of stamina. Not even sure if he’s likely to run.
 
The latest scratching stage for the Grand National is tomorrow (according to Racing Post). I’ll at least wait for that.

I’m only really looking at Bravemansgame this year.
 
Hi,

Thanks to B or S, I can now access 365. And I have decided it's now or never to see if my 2 observation from last year works again.

I have backed all of these ew (5 places) with 365. Except for Inothewayurthinkin where I have a 51/1 ew (4 place) double riding.

They have all been backed to win approximately £40 - £45, my outlay has been £37.00.

For some reason The Real Whacker is not showing in 365 betting, if he does appear at 66/1 my outlay will be £38.00

Inothewayurthinkin 51/1 ew (4 place) double
I Am Maximus 11/1
Gentlemansgame 14/1
Monty's Star 16/1
Grangeclare West 20/1
Hewick 25/1
Bravesmansgame 33/1
Minnella Cocooner 33/1
L'homme Presse 50/1
Minnella Indo 50/1
Capodanno 66/1
Envoi Allen 66/1
Galvin 66/1
Royal Pagalille 66/1
Conflated 100/1
The Real Whacker 66/1 ????

I hope some of them become Non Runners 😃.

They'd be daft not to run otherwise why enter for the race. At #31 in the list he is guaranteed a place in the line-up.

That’s what I thought. I haven’t really looked at the list of runners till last night ( I always used to place my bets on entries day which is why I backed Mon Mome at 33/1 and not 100 darn it but my system for finding the winner went out the window years ago). It reminded me of looking at the runners in the Guineas one year and asking ‘who is this horse, Makfi’. Fingers crossed he at least gets a run.
 
The confirmed field will be published 48 hours before the race, with entries already closed, that list will be cut down over three key dates.
  • March 18 – Second round of scratches
  • March 31 – Five-day confirmations
  • April 3 – 48-hour declarations and final field confirmed

Alex, I spend about 4 months a year in Spain and until recently I was leaving a betting float with a brother in Ireland and texting my bets which he'd place. Hated him knowing my bets and my stakes. Then recently bought BItdefender VPN, very inexpensive, and when you turn off WiFi and use baseband connectivity - it's like being at home.

I take it that wouldn't work with a laptop?
 
To my surprise it was quite straightforward, on my mobile I uninstalled my 365 app, I am not sure I needed to do this. I did not use a vpn. Googled 365, went through the the .com link and signed in. I am not sure how long this will last, and was part of the reason I have decided to do all my national bets in one go. Incidentally 365 did not have The Real Whacker listed, so I have done exactly the same as 365 without deleting the app with P power. And got 100/1 plus power up to 125/1, but not NR NB. I suspect 365 might know it will not run, but at 125/1 who cares (lol).
