Is it me, or is anybody else finding this season just seems really open still, much more than typical by this stage. Especially in the novice events/bumper. The Arkle looks set to surely be the highest quality renewal we have seen for a bit in terms of good horses AND a competitive race but many of the others have no stand out at all

There are 10 races that have favourites at odds of 2-1 or less and another 4 3-1 or less.
So I'd say No. The exact opposite IMO.

I wouldn't say the prices reflect that? Overall we've got more shorties than normal by now?

Just not in the Ballymore / Albert Bartlett / BANC?



Hard to gauge the quality beforehand though.... can only really be hindsight that solves that

Also depends how many of the shorties win, if Facile Vega, Jonbon, Constitution Hill win on Day One, people will have it down as one of the greatest ever festival days

I placed a lucky 15 on the festival earlier and accidentally put princess zoe instead of magical zoe in the mares novice hurdle, i asked hills if they could amend or void the bet and they refused, is that the usual outcome to such a request ?

[Magpie]

Only time at did something similar with WH, I contacted them straight away, and they voided the bet as gesture.

Off the Fence may be worth watching when it airs most weeks going forward.
4 Price boosts today with Boylesports were reasonable. And stakes up to 50pounds
Obviously need a boylesports account.
Might be handy for one you want in your team.

Forgot about her. The trainer was interviewed re her the other day and she's definitely back in full training over hurdles. Shed have a big chance wouldn't she ?

I hadn't even thought about her for the race, she just happened to be next to magical zoe in the list and also the same price, would be some stroke of luck if she actually won it !

What day is it out? Noticed the specials the other day, Was that you that clipped Favori Du Champdu in to 12s? 16s yesterday! Others seem to have stayed the same.

Betfair cash out page is so odd. I appear only to be able to have a max of 70 available to cash out but over a 25% are suspended or greyed out. I have more than 70 with them though.

Is it normal from anyone's previous experience or is there a better place to see my potential cash outs?

Yes, there's a limit of 70 visible cash-outs. No-one seems to know why. If you have more than 70 eligible bets, you will just see the first 70. If you cash one of those out, the next one will then become visible. I discovered this last season and it certainly adds an extra level of challenge to managing ante-post positions!

Sorry not to be more help!

Cheers. Tony's still there, but they where also up from at least Monday when I first noticed them, maybe even sunday evening. FDC back to 12s already. Says week 3 but first time I've came across them.

I might be wrong but sure they record it a Monday and it’s aired a Tuesday. Bit shit if they boost them before the show and then take them down not long after before people have had a chance to watch.

No you are right, video out yesterday, looked up YouTube. But they 100% had them up Monday, possibly when they recorded it they put on site, strange before video went live. Didn't see Barry's boosted. They also had Champ.ie boosts, they seem to be taken down now, Love Envoi was definitely one, maybe took it down due to yesterday's entries? Dunno. Going by YouTube it went live yesterday too.

[Muswell]

Recorded on Monday as they put up a promo Monday night on twitter didn’t come out til yesterday mid afternoon
