well , he hasn't been to any off meeting for at least 5 years , so won't realize how dire they all are.
actually, if I was asked to value it I would say 1000 top is about fair. interesting to see what fool falls for it ,the danger is if a good number are sold the new owners will turn up to bet in large numbers |
|
By:
the reserve for lot 3962 has got it's value about right though
|
|
By:
Adge - if I buy pick 3962 for £10 then how much will it cost me to bet at the Beecher saturday in terms of badge and marketing fee.
|
|
By:
I don't have a pitch at Aintree but would guess 152 plus 110 plus admission
|
|
By:
Adge Leo was there last Saturday - he had a hedge with me
The badge was £120 and the marketing fee was £100 (rip off) |
|
By:
+ £20 entry
|
|
By:
cost me £260 on the saturday (120badge, 40 entry, 100 m.fee)
saturday just workable, sunday awful |
|
By:
You obviously got out at the right time adge.
|
|
By:
^what did you expect on the Sunday?
|
|
By:
Smacks of greed by both the racecourse and the bookies.
![]() |
|
By:
much cheaper than I thought so must be a bargain.
surprised that your firm were there APG |
|
By:
bad forecast sunday but never rained all day, think only around 16 books in tatts/14 rails on sunday and still unworkable
|
|
By:
That sunday has always been useless,the other sunday used to be ok but obviously they have scrapped it for a Saturday.
|
|
By:
Wont the marketing fee be split i there are now 2 lists
|
|
By:
Adge I only went so I could win what the firm would lose at Doncaster
|
|
By:
My opinion which counts for nothing of course is that by selling the off part of your pitch devalues the Grand National pitch by more than what you would get for selling it
|
|
By:
If you have a pitch on both lists you only pay one marketing fee, this was confirmed at the meeting before racing
|
|
By:
Pick 9 now in auction, reserve more realistic.
|
|
By:
surprise that number 10 is holding back
|
|
By:
number 15 and number 22 also for sale too.
the snowball is gathering pace |
|
By:
It's time for adge to buy back in !
|
|
By:
a marketing fee will have to b paid by anyone who buys a pitch in the off at aintree so its a marketing fee for both rings but its only one fee if you already have the pitch
|
|
By:
despite these pitches being laughed at mainly by those who don't have one.the top ones will be well workable apart from on the dreadful sunday,the problem is though I can't see where any buyers can come from firstly the first Saturday clashes with a busy Doncaster ,the 2nd one with Wetherby and the 2 Friday nights with York.
If you were local you could probably network 2 pretty good picks for around about 10k,the county stand picks worth 15-20k imo. |
|
By:
But if you are not local ribero ?
![]() |
|
By:
Exactly Democrat,thats why I said I can't see where the buyers can come from.
|
|
By:
What is the average no. of Tatts books for these meetings. The tv pictures never give the impression that there is much of a crowd.
|
|
By:
15-20 imo,now the new stand has been built the 7 books in the county are different class,you also get about 15 turning up on the rails.
|
|
By:
the problem is , democrat , that for these meetings there is only one enclosure.
the county stand area is set on it's own , the path is straight between the stands from the parade ring to them .but the public have to bypass the row of rails books to even get to the tatts bookmakers. |
|
By:
if ribero1 is right then we should buy pick 127 for a £10, and then make the number of books attending 21. The reason that currently over 100 books dont turn up in tatts surely cant be put down to clashes...can it?
|
|
By:
The official number for Tatts is 116 - if they all turned up on an off meeting there'd be no where to put over half of them
|
|
By:
But the Rails books' boards would be facing away from the public to whom you refer wouldn't they adge ?
