price has been slowly drifting for the last week. reached 6.80 today.
suddenly all the lay side prices have disappeared bar £25 at 10 and above.
last matched price was 7.20 - 2 ticks above previous price.
looks fishy to me. anyone any news?

Well spotted, I never noticed it myself.

This is worrying for me as a backer of the fly with Menorah and Peddlers Cross now shorter in the market

tbh i only spotted it myself as i have been monitoring the market as a backer (and potential further backer) of the fly.
since i first posted there has been a further £12 added to the lay side but the market is still wildly unbalanced and has huge spread of 6.80-8.60

I was wondering why Coral have removed the CH market all day. They must know.

hope nothing has gone wrong with HF mullins will be desperate to run after missing the last 2 festivals my idea of the winner as well

If he misses it again I will be totally gutted. We gotta see what the Fly can do.
Report wellchief January 30, 2011 9:03 PM GMT
Luckily I've got a much bigger price than he is now, and I'm in two minds whether to lay my stake back at 6/1.  If he runs and he wins I still win overall, if he doesn't run its cost me nothing.

Got stung last week with Flat Out and don't want it to happen again

Joes took their market down.Don't know at what time but Mullins
been having winners all day,if there was anything wrong could have
informed ATR viewers.I know they answer to the owners first but a
horse like this very high in AP lists the betting public should be informed.
Lets hope its nothing.

Nothing too heavy wouldn;t be too worried...... yet.

If he don't run i backed Hurricane Fly on Ladbrokes so i get most money back. So id rather him not run then less then 100 percent come March.
Report Liam23uk January 31, 2011 4:39 PM GMT
Any news on the Fly today since Forum returned?
Report CVByrne January 31, 2011 7:38 PM GMT
Was due to him being stiff after the Irish Champion hurdle and a few getting worries about that. Then people are not really interested in backing him antepost and would prefer to wait for non runner no bet.

-----------------

"Hurricane Fly was a little stiff on Monday following his win in the BHP Insurances Irish Champion Hurdle the previous day," the Irish handler wrote in the Racing Post.

"But that passed quickly and he has been striding out to his chin every since and seems to have come out of the race very well.

"Now everything will be geared to having him tip-top for the big one at Cheltenham on March 15."

no point in backing him now,will be this sort of price a lot nearer the day i think,maybe bigger.
Report CVByrne January 31, 2011 7:49 PM GMT
I doubt he'll be bigger than 6/1 on the day. Actually it's highly unlikely given there are irish people who bet on Cheltenham Blush
Report buddeliea January 31, 2011 7:55 PM GMT
What i mean is that he wont shorten now until very near the day,just dont think he is an antepost bet at the current price with 6 weeks to go.
Report CVByrne January 31, 2011 8:02 PM GMT
That's the point, he has no more races so his price will remain about the same until close to the day.
