  • Also Atlantic, the reality of a 200/1 ‘treble’ is though it feels great value, you’re only getting 5/1,5/1 & 9/2 for each race. It’s pretty horrific all things considered as a price.

    When I took the 225/1 on the Shishkin/Envoi Allen bet in Nov last year ready for March next year, the first thing I did was break it down and worked out it was 16/1 x 14/1. I thought Shishkin to well be a short price a year later for the Champ Chase (not aftertiming, just felt a strong Arkle victory would see to this) and I also thought Envoi would be sitting in around 5/2 to 3/1 after an emphatic Marsh victory. Sadly, that didn’t materialise!!

    I just think when these big prices are available, it’s well worth doing your own ‘research’ and considering if it’s value, even if there’s a couple of 0’s at the end.

      Minimum of 3 or the bet is void. Bob is 7/1 now (Originally 12, then 10). Honeysuckle 6/1 from 7's.

        Minimum of 3 runs before sometime in April,not sure of exact date. Bet is a loser if horse doesn't run at least 3 times

        Sorry only saw above response now​​​​​​

        • Does anyone here have a William Hill account?

          This time last year they had started listing a lot of their ‘#your odds’ prices that generally were extremely attractive.

          But no #yourodds currently.

          Is anyone available to tweet them to find out if they’re doing any this year?


          As an example, I’m currently sitting on a 393/1 ‘boosted’ double of Bob Olinger to win Ballymore/Marsh 2022 & Ferny Hollow to win Arkle 2022.

          I so very much hope their traders can add some more gems like this one.

              ….somebody stumbled on them last summer & they were a decent source but I get the impression Hills got badly stung & not doing them this time. Let’s not forget they also allowed multiples in their a/r market for a period but have not repeated that either.

              • A rare RAB that seems like a bit of value...

                Bob Olinger (MNC), Honeysuckle (CH) both to win, Gaillard Du Mesnil (AR) and Latest Exhibition both to place.

                250/1

                  • Posted in my diary, will also post here:

                    I know we don't talk stakes but for sake of ease and explaining returns, but with Sky a fiver EW treble on PTKO, TMSG and FP returns 148 if they all place.

                    If you use the 'to place' market down at the bottom it returns 295 off a tenner (obviously do a small saver on the win treble as you aren't getting that as part of the bet!)

                    Odds are as follows:

                    PTKO place top 3 QMCC @ 11/4
                    TMSG place top 3 Mares Hurdle @ 13/8
                    Flooring Porter place top 3 stayers @ 2/1

                    Obviously all have to make it and some luck will be required there, but we have two returning champions and an exciting mare in TMSG. Will they all win, probably not, but nearly 30/1 to hit the frame is appealing when you consider none of them have ever lost at Cheltenham, all three are festival winners, two are reigning champions and TMSG looks mustard.

                    Lobos will be doing backflips

                    • Was having a look at some of the requestabets, and this one caught my eye even though kilcruit is going to the supreme according to mullins
                      Bob Ollinger to win the Marsh Novice Chase by 2+ lengths & Kilcruit win Ballymore Novice Hurdle by 2+ lengths
                      priced up at 40/1 not sure if its me but im guessing this was put up before the stable tour but that seems quite big odds?

                          Do we think this one was ‘fat jockied*’ after you posted it and Skybet just took it down as can’t see it?

                          *fat jockied is a term used for a price that has been significantly shortened or the selection even removed from the market due to significant liabilities associated with a post on the Fat Jockey forum

                              • I’m not on Twitter, so I’m hoping someone here has a SKYBet account and Twitter and can request the following??

                                Cheveley Park to own 2 winners
                                Willie Mullins to have 4+ winners
                                Henry de Bromhead to have 2+ winners
                                Gordon Elliott to have 2+ winners

                                if anyone could for their Requestabets section, I’d thoroughly be extremely appreciative,

                                Bolly.
