very tricky, they did bump but they didnt really lose momentum
wtf this an eay one 147 has came across causing cracking find to squeeze up the 3rd. Cracking Find should get the race not even close
why haven't they given the fpp result ? still looking ?
Interference caused by One Forty Seven in my mind, squeezed up the other two. Not had a bet
Embaressing stewards and reporters in million pound industry. No one knows whats won the race nor what the enquiry is into, what a circus.
If it's a dh right enough then cracking find must be heavy odds on to get it
when it is that close it has to be booted out , shirley
^ if that's the result then it should go....listening to the jocks though nothing will happen
This isnt a difficult one, dead heaters and one has bumped the other twice ffs
Surely got to declare what's FPTP before calling a stewards? Make it up as they go along ...
it will be , any interference at all will cost min 1cm of distance
Why is market closed still? Think Cracking Find would be 1.5
Backed 147 without fav , bill hill so expect half stake, even if they demote to 2 nd first past the post rule? I'll still get paid out?
I backed 147 lto and today, could be my least favourite horse already.
must have cost themselves 5 or 10k not opening the market 
Doesn't seem to much chances to bet on photos these days on betfair, big part of betting losing confidence
The whole point of BF is to be on things like this/trade
This whole thing is a bit of a shambles.
Will just even out positions, if Betfair can be bothered to open it.

Why isn't the ****g market open?
==============================
coz betfair is a clueless company who doesn't know how to operate their exchange properly....
coz they don't give a to$$....
that's why.

not sure what price it would have been as we all seem to have same opinion....but an absolute disgrace to suspend
How does my bill hill first past post stand? As I did without fav should it be any different?
Think that reversal is a bit harsh.
3 tired baby novices rolling in on each other on a crooked run-in

photo market would have been interesting enough, let alone the stewards
potential for some big price swings in those rare cases

didnt see this market, surely the photo was opened? around £50k has been matched at 1.15 on 147
Agree poppy, but i suppose they had to change the result.
Can someone please pass Darlene Jacobs a pamper..
TIA
TIA
Got paid out billies 147 without fav, half stake at least something! Would have lost on betfair!
yep I know, I meant cases where market is opened because of a photo but in which there's also potential for a stewards...great markets 
"We weren't able to offer stewards enquiry betting this time round because we just weren't. Kind regards."
Absolutely dreadful decision, never had a penny on the race but to penalise the second and particularly criticise the jockey for trying win the race just disgraceful. Standard of stewarding in this country woeful!
Photo was opened a little later than normal
147 was about 1.18 - spent about 4 mins, drifting to 1.7, then a sudden jump to 2.1
Suspended
Never re-opened for St. Inquiry. Whole thing was a dragging 15-20 mins

Market still not settled - all my tied up in the race and can't bet!
Also I think the new winner (in the middle) was the main culprit of the 3rd's demise,
which was a far more serious incident

the sudden jump included some real lumps of money..15K at evens amongst them
Betfair really messed this race up , still not settled
A Stewards Inquiry was about 90-99% certain given the finish and the bumping so I've no idea why they would suspend/pay out so quickly. They have confused big problems for all punters and cost themselves money too!
A lot of the blame lies with the stewards for not declaring FPTP before calling an enquiry. Once you knew it was a DH, it was extremely likely that they'd revise the result. But we weren't told that until long after the enquiry had been called.
So what was the official reason for not opening up the stewards?
connectivity issues with the on course rep, commander (via twitter)
Time after time these stewards are not being opened, what happened to the telephone???
It's usually a case of the rep running for his car before the weighed in.

He couldn't borrow someones phone in the press room,,, HMMMM,,,,
Not a very transparent company these days

He must have a mobile phone on him if he is representing a multi million pound organisation.
constantly blaming OCR connection issues commander.....
it's an utter joke....
what they really mean is 'we've screwed up and we're blaming connection issues with the OCR to cover our backs'....
doesn't wash with me tbh.

i rang twice at 3pm and voiced my feelings..still waiting for a call back with explanation
I worked on the courses for 2 years and never had communication failure once.
They've failed to open 3 stewards enquires in 2 months (two of which have been revised), and its always the rep.

they'll call you back and say 'we are very sorry....OCR connection issues....we've passed you feedback on to the bloke who deals with the feedback we get'....
in other words....
we've screwed up....
we don't give a t0$$....
we can do what we want and if you don't like it then clear off coz there is nowhere else to go....

correct commander.....
there was one just a couple of days ago....
can't remember the exact scenario....
it just keeps happening and they don't give a t0$$ quite frankly.

Suspended mid-race at Downpatrick the other Friday, re-opened with 2f to go, connection issues blamed I think
