MOTIVADO, the runaway favourite for the Betfred Ebor at York, still requires 13 rivals to come out the field for Saturday's race after Monday's six-day confirmations. He's 33rd in the list, while the safety limit is just 20.

Think they've got their numbers wrong - he was joint 28th before today and a few have come out

Roobuck, can you tell us which horses have been withdrawn, please?
Report roobuck August 20, 2012 1:26 PM BST
bazzar only looking at the books prices and added to info supplied by RP, not seen actual decs. But looks like Galileo's Choice, Fiery lad, Shahwardi, High Jinx, Zuider Zee at least of those weighted above the fav have come out

seen what they have done, have used the original weights and Motivado has of course a 4lb penalty. Decs are no on RP site and is joint 18th on that list but not sure what other horses have penalties to add.

very poor from RP imo

I am coming to believe they are more for the bookies than the punter, things like
certain bookies will hold the prices for a SHORT period, tried to get a price at 1 minute past opening time and price gone, another one is trainer states horse will only run if going is suitable, they used to tell what going was required, now it's guess.

Thanks for your info, Roobuck.

Yes VERY lax by RP, forgot to add 4lb penalty, if the handicapper works like SMITH, then MOTIVADO goes above TOMINATOR into 20th place, but I don't know if he does.

Anyone know who the handicapper is for the flat, please?
