Do you not get caught up with affordability checks from bookmakers with your strategy ?
Your account(s) will effectively show a loss all year and by that I mean your deposits are more than your withdrawals and it seems to be an adopted policy from many bookmakers to insist on financial checks if this is the case.
Of course, as you say, the majority (you hope!) of your bets are all live until March.

I'm in the middle of a legal issue with Betfred around financial checks because they insisted on interrogating my finances on an account that has been in considerable profit for years, my account has been closed because I've refused and they've said they won't pay me any returns from my ante post bets until I comply, this will end up in court.

There are plenty of book builders in here and I've never heard anyone say they have provided their financial data but they will all be in the same boat as you, constantly depositing throughout the year and accounts showing a 'loss'...

Isn’t the issue here that your account is a winning one maybe? I’m sure the majority of betting accounts will be losing accounts overall and that’s what they want so are happy with the book builders who’s accounts show as losers all year….until their ante post winners come rolling in and then they suddenly require financial checks??

Their Compliance team have requested documents in relation to what they claim to be regulatory requirements on affordability and source of funds.
No-one sufficient intellect to work out that if an account is a winning account these issues are moot….

When are the weights released is it Tues or Weds.

Just as an aside does anyone know what the most losing rides in a row is?

I ask only because I note that Benny Poste has clocked up 129 and counting.

Not as if he is that short of rides either.

When he does get one I would be very disappointed if Luke Harvey didn't describe him as an in-form jockey the following day.

So do we know when and where we can find the handicap weights tomorrow, or is it just a case of checking Twitter every couple of minutes?

I thought there was a media embargo until around 10am ?

Looks like you're right Istabraq

Yep, we’re in that horrific period where bookmakers will know but us punters are kept in the dark.
I’d imagine there are plenty of games being played on exchanges right now….

Just tried to read the Patrick Mullins Q&A on the Racing Post but it's behind a pay wall
Don't suppose anybody has posted any comments on what he said ?
No shots of the Q&A on Twitter ?

Was looking at the 2023 novice hurdle markets and I saw a horse called "demandrivingdouvan" does anyone know who owns this or trains it? Strange it would be priced up already

Nothing worthy of note, a lot of tongue in cheek answers etc. Only tiny nugget if it’s worth anything is he thinks Kilcruit will be involved at the business end of the supreme & hopes to ride due to the Mullins family connection etc
