Thatsdwayimthinkin is no longer with us unfortunately. Not one which necessarily affects Cheltenham bets, so I’ve not posted in OFTS.

Means little in the way of the festival, but noticed today that Il Est Francais has had money for him for the King George on the exchanges. Was trading between 12/1-14/1 but recently matched as low as 5/1.

Still 14/1 with PP/Betfair though.

Tricky race for the assessor that.
You'd be disappointed if he got more than a pound or two as realistically the winner did not run to 158. (or 156)

Rule Langer Dan out as any sort of yardstick and Flight Plan probably about right with Monmiral.

Leaving them all wouldn't be daftest or unpopular with all concerned.
Think he'll get a couple though.

Nicely called, Q. Up 1lb to 145.

Huge in the way of the festival no ?? If he runs then all Fez bets still on.

I was looking forward to him as I was in Oldtown when he won his point and thought he was impressive

Horses in behind have done nothing for the form though

Just as a matter of interest do you know who he went to ?

Thought it might be Cromwell as he trained 2 winners at last year’s festival from the dam ( Sway )

He went to Gavin.

The beauties at B365 have decided to withdraw the cash out function from my account - getting out the Let It Rain bet must have been the trigger. I was going to launch into a lengthy diatribe along the lines of ‘why offer it if you don’t want punters to use it (you c***s)’, however, I’ve been around long enough and lost enough accounts to realise doing so would possibly raise a flag. In hindsight I wish I’d just taken the hit - easy to say now but not so easy to stick to when you have the opportunity to recover what is a dead bet.

Posting this really as a gentle reminder to others to tread carefully and look after your accounts!

I had my cash out removed this exact week last year by Denise. It’s annoying at first, but with no cash out’s available it made me think twice about every bet placed and my profit and loss for the last year has been my best yet

It is ridiculous when they offer something then take it away when you utilise it, it's like they're testing you ! A mate of mine backed a few specials in hills a while back and he had a run of them landing, the manager said he couldn't back them anymore, he argued that he didn't choose them and they did but they weren't having it so again, why do they offer them then punish you for taking them !

Same. For playing silly buggers with Fact To File after he lost his beginners.

Their complete tits about it. They deliberately push the price out when a horse loses to stop people cashing out or to take a lower price for their bet. But they don’t like you taking advantage of the big prices.

The moral indignation of offering a service only where it suits their purposes is massively frustrating, but nothing will change. They’ll get away with whatever they want.

Ironically, I’ve had some big winners I would’ve cashed out of they’d let me, including Jasmin De Vaux last year @ 50/1 for a 200pt return.

Cash out is a big part of my strategy still, I just bet with PP mainly now. I’m sure I’ll lose privileges there too soon, but for now, my spending with 365 is down massively.
