14/1 Paddy Power if you believe in them.  Must run at least twice each or void bet.

how much would they take tho? thought big bucks at 6/4 for world hurdle was  big ....not many to challenge him   and always puts the upstarts in there place,and  just does enuff ...not my kind of bet but could understand punters drip feeding this  every week up untill the festival .

I wouldn't lay it.

£80 was the max bet at 14/1 and they cut it just as I was about to have a bet.
Think max is about £100 at 10s now

Worth a couple of quid for abit interest sill 10/1 seems massive.
Report Howdi October 26, 2012 5:38 PM BST
it won't look massive when you tot the sp's up at the end of the season.

could be talking about them racing 11-12 times during the course of the season.
Report strontium October 27, 2012 12:13 AM BST
BB will run 4 or 5 times for sure.

good point, problem is, if i tried running it up race by race and putting it on the next, it would more than likely end up all going on some mutt at crayford somewhere along the lineLaugh

Minor point, but suppose Big Bucks wins his first two then takes a bad turn on the gallops and has to be retired. You're paying for that insurance as well aren't you?

"Big Buck's has been given an entry in the Betfair Fixed Brush Handicap Hurdle on Betfair Chase Day [November 24].

"It is a very valuable race, worth more than the Newbury race that is normally his reappearance, but money isn't everything and we will do what is best for the horse - it's only a tentative entry."

He's thrown in off 174 LaughLaugh

Would be very interested to see how he gets on in that handicap. Not often you see the very top horses put to that sort of test.
Report wellchief November 6, 2012 8:37 PM GMT
Would also love to see him tackle the Fixed Brush hurdles.

its a fair comment,not many go unbeaten for a year.
Report strontium November 10, 2012 10:38 AM GMT
The odds and stats certainly predict he'll get beaten at least once. Wasn't he 9/2 to go unbeaten in summer (not sure what price now...)
Report flushgordon1 November 10, 2012 10:54 AM GMT
in 3 seasons racing he is unbeaten in 1 .
