Good man Eddie. How are things in the deise?

Ask me at 640 on Saturday.

Won't win. 4/6 was a ridiculous price

ballydoyle boss it with what ?
|
|
By:
tatics will be intriqing here
think jh will just be different class myself got a feeling laddies will go 6/4 this sat morning |
|
By:
Tonkability- 4 Ballydoyle runners-it's a safe bet they will try and make things awkward for Jack Hobbs-presumably by setting a strong pace.
|
|
By:
Fashion Fever -I will be surprised if 6/4 isn't available.

Kill a man for his giro e w for me.

By:
1.92 at the moment -I could cash out to win the price of a pint or go in again-I'm convinced the on course bookies will take him on and he will get chinned.

17:27 IRE Curr 27th Jun / 18:30 1m4f Grp1 / Jack Hobbs Back 1.90 106.75 Won 96.08 Not sure which of us was the mug considering the Betfair SP. |

Good to see see some opinion players are still on here.

How good is Golden Horn? Jack Hobbs was probably better suited to the Curragh than to Epsom but even so, Golen Horn looked different class to him. Storm The Stars still looks like a St Leger horse provided that Jack Hobbs doesn't go there.
|

By:
Golden Horn , Eclipse. I wonder how many will take him on? Bombproof!

is eddie batt stumped?

Had a good day on Wednesday and turned €200 into €2000-decided this was the bet to set me up for the summer.I was fairly certain he would trade at odds against but didn't do any trading.To add salt to my wounds I had €50 on him for Epsom at 66/1.It's still been a good week.
Fair play to you Screaming-I was a million miles wrong and knew I was fcuked before they turned into the straight. Mmmlushka -personally I think it wouldn't be a bad thing if people put up opinion bets on a regular basis-betfair could facilitate this by offering lower commission rates on bets matched the night before the race. |
|
By:
so you were after a trade that didnt come to fruition?
|
|
By:
Bad luck Eddie
but great to see someone getting a decent wedge up early and creating some interest. good days/bad days better luck tomorrow. |
|
By:
No -I was happy to let the bet run.I believe the technical term is greed.
|
|
By:
so why the comment 'thought it would drift to odds against'
|
|
By:
|
|
By:
maybe becos his contibution was miles away
 |
|
By:
But it was a genuine pre-race view and didn't notice you contradicting his view point prior to the race?
I know you like a time advantage but 3 hours after the race,the market is surely suspended? |
|
By:
Betfair forumite gets it wrong -oh the shame.
|
|
By:
I don't think you did Eddie. You just didn't take your profit when it came. I backed the horse at 2.04 and was alarmed when it went out to nearly 2.2. Had you taken your profit it would have been a nice call. No need to beat yourself up.

By:
And don't pay any attention to that Geordie half wit. He's too busy scrabbling around in the dirt picking up other peoples pennies to have an opinion of his own.
|
|
By:
and thats why he is a rich **** -harsh but fair
 |
|
By:
Each to their own shearer. No point in being the richest man in the graveyard if your fellow man despises you.
|
|
By:
Not that I'm speaking about anybody specifically. Just a general observation.
|
|
By:
hairy muff mate - i see both sides but the guy makes muny -surely thats why we all come on here to try and do -whether you like it or not he has got it by the bollux -whatever advantage he has got
No offence meant |
|
By:
fair play to anyone with an opinion..great stuff...but no point making observations that ' i thought it would drift to odds against'..there was no mention of a possible trade pre race so a drift is inconsequential to his opinion or lay.
|
|
By:
It's not inconsequential, though, is it? As dj876 has already said, laying nags at 1.9 that you believe will be odds against at the off is good punting. That is if you assume that the market has the price about right, which it generally does.
What was the BSP? 2.06? Win or lose, 1.9 was a good lay. |
|
By:
ehhh??? how was laying 1.9 a good lay? it cantered in
|
|
By:
But, amazingly, this information wasn't known pre race. Therefore it's fair to assume that if the market made it a 2.06 shot and the OP had laid 1.9, it was a good bet win or lose.
If I get 5/4 about heads in a coin flip and it lands tails, would you be telling me I made a lousy bet? |
|
By:
its pre race odds was down to a majority opinion....laying a t 1.9 something that canters in cant hardly be described as a good lay.
