    Thanks Benjy....

    • It's normal to think that heavy ground favours stayers but on today's goodish ground horses who stay at least the trip have done well - maybe because faster ground encourages faster run races?

      • I've backed Silver Sheen antepost with BFSB in the Pertemps. At no.37 it looks unlikey that he will get in now. Money lost or will I get it back?

        Betfair not refunding this....saying its a loser as antepost.
        Are the correct?

          Only the Supreme was overly strong today from what I could see. Every other race they were tightly bunched coming down the hill, partly due to pace and partly because of the ground.

            No, you’re 100% entitled to your money back as Silver Sheen was balloted out as shown on this page -



            This paragraph is taken from Betfairs T&Cs -
            • If the horse is balloted out or eliminated under Jockey Club rules single bets will be void. In any such cases, accumulative Future Racing bets will stand on the remaining legs, at the prices laid on the selections in those races, with a double becoming a single, a treble becoming a double, etc.

              • Why is there much more money in flat racing?

                  Because of the breeding side of things

                  Stallion making is big money business

                  • I put a bet on this morning on a combi forecast of Hurricane Lane/Third Realm. Third Realm didn't run and now the bet is coming back a loser, I would have thought it would be voided. Am I wrong?

                      ….i think the Tote Exacta would be voided, not sure if yours was a Tote bet.

                              Allegedly for some on here, Hills offered it last year for certain bets but I didn’t see any cash outs personally.

                                They weren’t Cashout in the end, and I don’t see them advertising it for horse racing antepost.
