just fck off

Absolutely comical!!
It doesn't suit the sponsors as bookmakers will want the drawn know as soon as possible as they'll get less traffic without it known. Connections will want to know as soon as possible as well. It's just comical. |

who the fck is betting in that market ffs

Ye wonders. I,m verves biggest fan. Dont want him avin to back run anything. Especially the floppy eared dog.
assuming verve qualifys. |
|
By:
No logical reason for it, surely it's in
Everyone's benefit to announce the draw As soon as possible.? |
|
By:
Not an inconcievable scenario. 1 wide gets thru n 1 middle. So they get trap 5 n trap 6 n the 4 railers are left stewing. How can that be right.

Don't know what all the fuss is about. Think lunch used to be Monday but they'll be betting anyway. Draws don't make a be all and end all tremendous difference to odds. Argue all you like. Hills had betting after the third heat of the quarters!
Agree though, earlier the better for all concerned really |
|
By:
well that has to be about the stupidist statement i,ve read on this forum. U defo get the gold medal for that 1. |

‘Draws don’t make a be all and end all tremendous difference to odds’
Maybe not Woody but in a one off race, such as the Derby final, anyone betting on the race will be swayed by the draw clearly. |
|
By:
Jesus fkin wept, draws don't make much difference to the odds.
Take up bridge will ya ffs, or maybe something more on your level, a game of snap. |
|
By:
Good one that woody
Pf up with the lark for honest day work 20s Getting in from a bender 1-5 No gl fella with the game I’m sure the hounds be turned on in background The scully I work with was dressed for game last night When left the office out of munchester 5.55 this morn 3.30 flight home straight back for office 11 Sunday for bank holiday meetings Legend! |

jesus lads poor start to the day for ya'swas tucked up in bed by 10:30 last night, early start this morning - get tonight out of the way (semis and that small game in Kiev, wonder how they'd take it in boozer if I got them to flick over to channel 431 at 9.06 and 9.22) and then off for a few days in the sun b4 hitting the UK for final weekend haha Fattie am sat here in a Liverpool top as well, scarf on back of chair ready for later, I know you're secretly cheering us on  |

You all might scoff but watch the early betting before the draw. After the draw, there will be little difference

Scenario 1
Rising Brandy King Elvis Dorotas Wildcat Drive On Tipp Droopys Verve (m) Whoops Jack (w) Scenario 2 Dorotas Wildcat King Elvis Rising Brandy Drive On Tipp Droopys Verve (m) Whoops Jack (w) same dogs different draw, if you cannot deduce there would be a big difference in Wildcat's price in them 2 scenarios you really should not be gambling. |
|
By:
Okay. Think lunch Wednesday coz of Monday's Bank Holiday. Tradition draw done at Derby lunch. If Monday was a normal day, you'd all stop whinging!
|
|
By:
what tradition?
As long as I can remember the draw was done after the semi finals, well it has been that way for over 10 years now |
|
By:
It's obvious Elvis moves off and Wildcat best on rails but the way you all nit-pick about this might move 6 inches off there and that one move in 4 inches there, that's what's farcical!

6 inches - it's pointless conversing with you, you will always be a total mug I am afraid |
|
By:
Back in the day, draw was always done at the lunch?
Okay, draws count for everything. Fast start or missed break cant offset a draw |
|
By:
nobody said they count for everything ffs, they're very important though and are one of the factors that determine the dogs price which a toddler could understand but you don't
anyway you keep backing badly drawn dogs at bad prices (ala Wildcat in the Gold Cup final), whatever makes you happy |
|
By:
A draw can put you onto or off a dog but I like away, clear and gone - so not as important, imo
Anyway, you said you've been doing lots of mopping up on Wildcat despite well off the rails in his semi? |
|
By:
Aye because he doesn't have no King Elvis or King Turbo inside him like that final, he has already torn Wildfire Legend apart to the corner in round 2 and will clear Brusiers Bullet as well easy so long as he doesn't make a total tit of the start.
