Arkle 2018

If nothing comes out about this bleeding then it is pure fabrication. I wouldn’t blame you Jonthehammer for passing it on, but the people who peddle such nonsense should be held to account. Useless attention seeking specimens

“The horse is reported fine and exercised as normal this morning”

[jonthehammer]

Can you explain what you mean jon?

You came on here 30 mins ago and mentioneds the rumour you've heard...from a Facebook group

What snippet this morning??**

Kev. The original I put on was a snippet (cutting or whatever you call it) from Facebook that someone reported. I copied and pasted it word for word.

I agree with that mate. If it’s not true I’d be having words with the fella who posted it.

Just bumping this to make sure it doesn’t go unnoticed. Tweeted by Chris Cook.

Something must be behind it, I really do not care for Betfair exchange prices as that can be fixed. But for every bookie to drift him on a rumour that he could go to the JLT just doesn't ring true and they do not give money away.

I wouldn't be over worried if its a bleed as I sure that can sort that out and 4.8 on betfair was a gift..

Bookies follow the exchanges though now...

[jonthehammer]

I wish I had got the 4.8.

Let’s hope he makes it fit and well. I was purely trying To help and explain the drift when I read that on this private Facebook group I am in which is paid for I may add. So if I’m being fed duff info I will not be renewing and actually fuming with the group owner.

Ok, I did not know that, like I said I stay away from the exchanges... its a shame a tool that BF started so people like us could bet each without the bookies fixing the prices but only to be abused by trainers, owners, stable staff & punters alike..

A guy I know on Facebook who has a betting group. He has a lot of connections in the game. It’s very plausible and would explain the drift. I hope it’s not true tho. You know what it’s like this time of year.

Is this the same guy behind #307 on the bumper thread

No. That was a close friend who has a horse with Mullins mate.



Munirs Racing manager has said he definitely goes Arkle so why the drift then?

Or is it a natural drift?

I was going to say is this the same guy who mentioned the bumper setbacks... need to re evaluate your contacts if so

See above. Ok so you don’t believe what I posted. That’s cool. I’ve no problem with it. I thought it may explain the drift like.

Owners racing manager - “Nothing has changed. I’ve spoken to Willie today. He’s absolutely fine, no problems with the horse. There’s no reason to come change from the original plan all winter, which has been the arkle”

[Sirbetalot]

I wouldn't shot the messenger, we all hear rumours some true some not and info is king in this game..
