Why would anyone on the planet, back the first selection in that market
Eggs provides us with no end of prices and specials and I always enjoy his updates, but Sky have become a joke and their offers are irrelevant gimmicks, the fact they pay someone a salary to dream up these markets/prices is embarrassing...

Hear hear! Been very poor this year sky. No doubt someone might strike Lucky on a little nugget around 66/1 which will look good on hindsight, but overall they have been piss poor this year! Hopefully sort it out going forward!
Many thanks to Eggs highlighting these BTW, however, just don't seem to find any value in them and think Ista has pretty much nailed it with his comments.
Sky have dropped the ball in the past, and put up some unbelievable prices, but think this year they are just being far too cautious.
Paddy got Honeysuckle, shishkin, allaho (nrnb) 4/1 from 3/1.
I think there'll be a few out to get Honeysuckle over the next couple of weeks.
Just for info, the straight treble pays 7/2 with a number of bookies so whilst Paddys 4/1 would make this industry best priced their original special price was poor...
Like this for a bit of interest on the first day on skybet .
Gaelic Warrior (FW), Jonbon (SNH), Epatante (CH), Kiltealy Briggs (UHC) & Queen Brook (MH) all to place
125/1
I'm assuming that's only 3 places, which would make me a little concerned for the handicaps. You can do it manually in their place market at around 87/1 but that does give you 5 places for GW and KB.

For info - all RABs are 5 places for handicaps, 3 for graded as per the top of the page when you load them up
