  • Constitution Hill & Lulamba seemingly working fine on the gallops at Kempton. Not that there was much panic on here but a couple of people on social media trying to get the rumours going

    • Not seen a Hunters chase thread

      suggestion by Jennings on UTA that JP has purchased a prominent horse in the betting for this

      Obvious one would be Willitgoahead

      Might push it into Favourite if it was him and Derek chose to ride

                        • I've raised it as an issue again (speed of the site)

                          it's annoying for me as I load up so many tabs at once and work my way through

                          Never used to be this bad

                            I used to work in a role where you'd only get 3 x 10 minute windows on the internet, so I used to open as many pages in that 10 minute as possible to spread my scrolling across the day

                              First time I can recall the RP property reporting on bookmaker restrictions.
                              I doubt there's anyone in here that hasn't been shut down/restricted, this is a bigger issue than affordability checks in my mind, the good people at the RP are not stupid but they are dependent on bookmakers for advertising revenue so no idea what's changed.
                              It's a shame no-one is able to accurately calculate what that equates to in lost revenue for the sport, my guess is it would then be fairly obvious why racing has a funding crisis...

                                One things for sure, there is absolutely no doubt that 2 out of 5 accounts are actually long term winning accounts either, not even fucking close.
                                40% of people who bet, win ?? Do they fuck.

                                Simply closing ordinary punters down as part of the collateral damage of shutting down a very small percentage of arber's and pro's.
