Is this a common phenomenon?
Looking at the race Pipers Piping doesn't look out of the ordinary until you look at the amounts of money trying to get on and lay.
Is this a technique used by punters wanting to back and lay, so they put large amounts up to discourage offers or requests (and get other punters to place a bet)?
I'm just interested - a few minutes ago Ladbrokes cut their price from 11/2 to 5/1 but I didn't see that as significant

Virtually every Chris Beek runner is heavily backed and/or shortened up

That seems to have happened here. Seems odd that a syndicate are taking prices which net off as poorer value than the books. Lots of 5/1 around, and (provided they don't have restrictions at Ladbrokes) both better value there and without commission.

When I did my assessment of the race I felt Dashing Eddie was beatable and that the 13/8 7/4 15/8 kind of prices didn't take full account of the rise in handicap.
I am prepared to back D'Urberville at 4/1 or bigger (as that way I can build in the risk of a bounce effect) but I had felt 7/1 would be needed to attract me to back Pipers Piping. I was initially drawn to review Pipers Piping because I wasn't familiar with the betting pattern. But since then I have seen a jocked up entry tomorrow for an apprentice handicap and am prepared to consider that the handicap today may well be generous. Tomorrows race is 0-65 and would be then contestable with a penalty as well as top weight. So I'm looking at Pipers Piping today and have cut my required price to just under 13/2 |

I got 6/1 about Pipers Piping earlier today. Last time Leonna Mayor was up she was beaten in a photo finish, I think at 6/1 "Pipers" is value

Hasn't been better than 6.8 here
Even so, there will be a long wait before he is entitled to run in a 0-65 again after yesterday's run away success |

Top and bottom has time since last race as well as handicap rating, but Hackett off 52 has been leniently treated. George Downing has draw 6 and a decent chance. Hopefully to be second rather than win.

Just not good enough. Josh Crane is a jockey worth noting, and well done to the man I knew as spin dwyer when he was in Yorkshire
