          The desire is to spread free bets far and wide in the hope of landing on some big prices.... nobody seems to stockpile them and have one mega free bet on something like this!


          It just looks wrong if you get a fiver and put it on something at single figures, but if you can get in the mindset of it being one GIANT free bet, it may pay off!

          Something to think about perhaps?
          I'm going to consider this. My play on free bets is usually to attempt to turn them quickly into cash the same week, but there's definitely merit in picking an antepost nap and loading free bets onto it.

            Hi Spectre, I've been doing this for the last few years and does work to be quite profitable.

            It allows you to back something that you don't necessarily fancy unless everything falls into place, at a big price (ie. Politologue last year), or chip away at something that is too short, but you can't leave unbacked (also using roll-ups).

            The majority of my AP bets (80/20) are with Free Bets - only using cash when I don't want to miss a price and have no FB available.

            • Really good from Rouge Vif that. Happy with the 66/1 available pre-race.

              All will be good with him provided that ground doesn't come up too soft.

                • Backed Rouge Vif at 66/1 with PP for this



                  That Arkle form franked a bit

                  • Boost for the Arkle there - some performance off 154. Whittington is really starting to emerge as one to really watch at the top table.

                    • Al Dancer and now this lad. Who said the Arkle was rubbish

                      P.s It probably was!

                      • That may have only been a handicap, but off his mark giving loads of weight away, Rouge Vif off a mark of 156 and smashing his opposition on the bridle, has just shown the Arkle form to perhaps be pretty decent.

                          • Yeah.... didnt really fancy him today... he blew them away. Very good

                            • I wouldn't have Rouge Vifs Arkle run as his true running, that ground killed any hope. He needs good in the description, if that's the case he'd make up ground with the front two, IMHO.

                                Cut to 20/1 with PP

                                Just in time.... serves them right .... for not suspending the Champion Chase during a handicap
