That's not sounding good news ricci, I got a 365 check today because of how much I'd deposited over the last 4 weeks but they haven't touched my balance or asked for any docs yet

What is a "check" exactly? Like a direct message or email of some sort? I think over the last few weeks I might have saw a couple thing around safer gambling week and later about how you can set deposit limits and take a time out and stuff, but they all seemed like very general notifications and nothing aimed directly at me, I assumed everyone saw little things like that and maybe they did.

My cash out is suspended too until I verify, can't withdraw or deposit, but I think that might be normal enough when awaiting verification. I actually took them returning my balance as a positive as at least they weren't witholding it because I thought that would be worse. I'm down a fair bit for the last month but only hundreds, and I'm in profit by hundreds for the last three months so didn't think it was anything to worry about regarding affordability checks, and still not sure if it is. I'm waiting to have my passport renewed so frustratingly I can't just verify and find out at the moment so I'm just guessing whether it's fine or bad.

You Wear It Well will go back against her own sex in the new year after failing to really fire in the Fighting Fifth Hurdle at Sandown on Saturday.

“Her price was probably skewed by the form of the yard and this, that and the other, but she’s run OK in the circumstances.
“She goes on soft ground, but that really was terrible ground on Saturday and she didn’t really get into any great rhythm. She was a bit keen early on and missed a couple of hurdles.

“Take nothing away from anyone, but it probably wasn’t her true running.”

‘In a pretentious Nick Luck voice’

BHA has announced today that they are unhappy with the ‘little progress’ made in depleting field sizes to “as small as fuckin possible”

As such are now going after the last pinch of glue that is holding the sports entertainment together. Gordon, Willie and of course royal JP.

a BHA spokesperson commented “We are fed up of them lads winning everything. We just want to see more match races over here, more donkeys in the uk competing 1-on-1 for 3k at a time”

back to Nick Luck

Of course, with the reduction in horses competing day in day out.. and the eventual lost revenue it will greatly empower the jockey club to round the price of a pint to a cool 10 pound by next spring. A resounded success for our industry.

Closing cameras pans to Nick and head pig at the BHA holding hands and smooching on the couch

Did anyone else do one of those uk yankees as discussed in the monthly Yankee thread?

long way to go of course

Just looked at the last at Exeter today. The winner was the horse that got heskin and turner sacked for their involvement in the sale
one of the placed horses called kalahari king!!
really sad that they have to copy a name from one of Ferdy Murphy’s greats. What’s next?

The winner looks decent

Posh lad that speaks slow sometimes has put up Absolute Notions for pertemps.
Reckons he knows that he'll run in the qualifier at xmas.
Obviously not qualified yet but has been priced by two or three companies 16-1 now best as the 20-1 Hills has gone.
It would have a good chance to be fair.
Not backed it myself, as I'd prefer it be qualified first.

[riccirich]

What other bookies, if any, offer cash out on all chelt ante post bets, other that pp/Betfair, 365 and betdaq sports book? Thought I'd ask before checking myself by placing bets as loads of firms claim to offer cash out on events but then don't after you've placed the bet.

He must have been given the nod that Pertemps is the plan but I'd be fairly unhappy as an owner that he's made that plan common knowledge.

Yeah, I wonder if he asks permission.
I would if I was him.

He seems to get a lot of information from Elliott's yard. What is annoying is pricing up with one bookie and then tipping it. Does no one any favours.

Most may have refused to price. Especially in this race the last couple of years, a lot will only price when qualified.
But I agree, it's a little bit mucky as a tip at this stage of the season.
