    He won't move this January, if he is still fit and scoring, and Chesterfield have a chance of promotion.

    if he cost as much as his old club thought a League 1 or Championship club would pay, then he must have a big wage packet too.

    He could go in the summer if he scores a hatful but Chesterfield don't go up.

    • Like the majority here I think cashing out Langer Dan for the Stayers is a sensible move.

      However I was aware of it at 3pm yesterday afternoon, and cash out hasn't been available to me since then. Does anyone have any idea why that would be when it has been and still is freely available to everyone else?

      Also before someone asks, cash out is still available with my other 365 bets.

      It seem highly unlikely that individual accounts are targeted for individual horses, so there must be some other logical explanation that I can't figure out.

      • The Bet365 Mole strikes again Spectre. Had nothing available at all with my Monkfish bets .

        • Is there a way to change notifications for 'My Stable' on Sporting Life so I can get email notifications for race entries, not just the day before a horse is set to race?

          • The tracker on irishracing.com gives entries.

              B365 seem to have logic or a rule built into their system to manage cashouts that if over x% start cashing out (probably 10%) then the remaining open bets for that selection automatically gets suspended for other users and manually reviewed. It's smart on their end tbh. You need to act fast in this game!

                In this instance though others have been able to cash out after I was unable to PP, which feels odd.

                  Monkfish was different though Lobos because they pulled cash out within 10 minutes of the news breaking. You either got out quickly or bets were down the drain. I was one of the lucky ones (all bar one bet that I missed), and most unfortunately have had to write off any bets they had on him.

                  I will say that 365 acted just about as quickly as I've known them to, so it looks like we'll need to be pretty sharp with the button this season. Fast information is going to be really important.

                  • Hi all, hope you're keeping well. I'm trying to make a conscious effort to be as informed as I can for this seasons NH. Started doing a bit of reading up on unraced horses and came across a GE trained horse called Grivei who is a4yr old by the same stallion as Envoi Allen. He's been mentioned in Mark Howard's OJA, anyone able to shed any more light on him?
                    Purely speculative, I've requested a bet for the bumper through Sky but they don't even have him on the system yet.

                    • Grivei is 4 year old by by Muhtathir out of a Soldier Of Fortune mare. Unraced in France, but did had a bunch of entries at Auteuil, Compiegne, and the regions in March. They were in French hurdles rather than bumpers though. Bought rather than raced presumably so his novice status wasn't ruined.

                      As you say Envoi Allen is a Muhtathir too, as is James De Berlais. Both Elliott and Mullins have had success with Muhtathir's. His Dam was unraced, and was a Soldier Of Fortune / Grivette cross. Both very talented in their own right. Grivette was a very highly rated French chaser and hurdler, and if he has inherited ability from her line he will be good.

                      Mega Fortune finished second to Defi De Seuil in the Triumph for Elliott, and he was a Soldier of Fortune, so Elliott would like both breeding lines. The fact that Mark Howard names him would suggest he has had some word from someone that he could be decent. Whether he's for bumpers or hurdles who knows. I suspect you're right though. Given his breeding they will be tempted to stick to bumpers this year.

                      Perhaps someone could request 365 price him up and see what they come up with?

                      • Not sure of the best place to put this, but there are a few free horses to follow for anyone interested



                        If there is a relevant thread, I could post them singularly.

                        hope everyone is doing well, with the proper stuff almost upon us.

                        Obviously I'm very busy to be making a huge input on the imdividual threads, however I will try and provide some free content in the coming months, when and where I feel is appropriate.

                        • tbh, WRT cash out, I mostly think of it now as insurance if I change my mind on the target or the horse. Getting out of injury news with a full time job is nigh on impossible

                          • Yeah I seem to remember last year it was very hard to be able to beat b365 with cashing out on injury or entry news.
