Bookmakers Special Offers:

[Istabraq]

there must be a decent amount of turnover for sharps/pros that are attacking that offer in shop (both singles and bad EW multis).

There are at least two Hills shops on course, I rememebr when they also had a 'shop' in the Centaur and the year they did that 8 place special when only 12 went to post there were queues out the door, they must have taken a serious hit that day...

[Faugheen_Machine]

Interesting, I've not thought of that angle before, Ista.

I would love to see the numbers behind the scenes on offers like that. Obviously the intention is to get the casuals punting with Hills at the start of the week and then Hills are confident they will beat most of them across the remaining 27 races. However, there must be a decent amount of turnover for sharps/pros that are attacking that offer in shop (both singles and bad EW multis).

Is there still a WH on course?

Pretty sure there is , that or a betfred . one near the parade ring ,.
and one in the gap where you walk down to the course between club and the new stand.

Yeah the WH near the Arkle bar is still there.

And the one right at the top, above the parade ring - where some bookies boards operate up there.

Are you wanting to have on-course bets ?

Or can they be used to collect payouts from antepost bets made at other William Hill shops?

If they do put enhanced places up for the Supreme, I'll be trying to get in a few Hills shops during the morning. There's one in the town centre that I know of, but an extra at the course would be a bonus.

Bet needs to be placed within 48hrs of 1st race on each day, so I'm taking that as any bet placed now wouldn't count, is that correct?

Not sure - I didn't look into the small-print.

Ah OK. I've just been on their website and that seems to be the terms. I've got some to use, so will definitely be getting involved.

Who would have thought that VirginBet have a better opening race promotion than Sky!

Do they still do that weekly quiz for the free bets ?
Enjoyed that for the 6 weeks I had an account....

[isitmarchyet]

I was hoping LiveScoreBet would have the same offer so you could double up, since they seem to be the same company. But they're just doing a ?1 free bet every day...
