Request-a-Bets (was 'Sky Bets' thread)

[Zachx02]

Not exactly War & Peace is it!

did ask them if they could shorten the race names but they refused so can't win!

[CJW]

Just had a RAB request denied because according to them on twitter "The request is too long and would not fit onsite" has this happened to anyone else before

No, usually just the old 'the price is to big' or just refused, then seeing the same bet getting priced up for someone else.

also noted sky have cleaned their RAB section up lately..

Galopin Des Champs - 2022 Brown advisory Novice Chase 2023 Cheltenham gold cup, Constitution Hill - 2022 supreme, 2023 champion hurdle

That’s ridiculous - they could definitely shorten/abbreviate those to fit on the site. You want me to ask Bazza @ Betfair? Reckon they might show something…

They have a glossary with race abbreviations that you could use to try it again? You can find them here: https://support.skybet.com/s/article/Betting-Glossary

I asked them but they said they can't do it because the traders said they can't or something, just smells like they don't want to price it up

DD is still 45s supreme and any race 2023.

Same price for ballymore.

Seems very wierd pricing. They rate kilcruit to win supreme than arkle more likely.

C Hill is 25s. This quoted bet seems really strange, or am I missing something?

Ranking RAB's by other value in the RAB's needs taking with an enermous dollop of salt though!


I do actually like both of those though...... (The Dysart Dynamo ones)

[Magpie]

Had a few quid on both those for DD with Skybet. Think it’s pretty fair

Can get 33s about kilcruit supreme. This bet makes no sense.

Original backed him any race 22 & 23 any race and got smaller price!

Yeah, horror prices ... but just because something is a bigger price than a Kilcruit one doesn't make it a good bet.

I'm not suggesting you believe that, I'm just putting out a general musing

20s Supreme and 25s Ballymore now.

Have been chipping away at Willie Mares Novice & Mares Chase at 11/4 the past month, think it’s got a fair chance unless Elimay and Concertista get injured in the latter race, he has many for the novice race.

Eggs I'm sure you will know the answer to this - just going through my bets and about 5 months ago I (like many) did:

Bob Olinger (AR), Sir Gerhard (SNH) & Telmesomethinggirl (MH) all to win @ 200/1

Does that 'AR' refer to any race or Arkle? Please be the former!
