'All In Run or Not'
Report longbridge • July 1, 2019 6:08 PM BST
Assuming this isn't trolling (I thought the "all bets stand, run or not" nature of AP betting was common knowledge?).

BF Sportsbook R&Rs include:

"21.2Ante-post

Subject to the points below, in ante-post markets, all bets on an individual horse stand whether the horse runs or not.

For GB and Irish racing: if a horse is balloted out, all bets on that horse will be void.

All relevant bets will be void where an event is: abandoned and not rescheduled; or postponed and rescheduled to another venue; or postponed and rescheduled to another day at the same venue with entries for the race being reopened or reverting back to a previous entry or declaration stage provided any additional horses are entered or re-entered and such entries or declarations are considered, in Betfair's absolute discretion, material to the betting on the race. For the avoidance of doubt, where a race is postponed and rescheduled to another day at the same venue, relevant bets will stand where entries/declarations at the time of postponement remain unaltered or include any non-material addition(s) prior to the rescheduled race."

Ante post bet on any non runner is a losing bet, regardless of when it was withdrawn.

Themightymac & Onlooker,

You are both wrong.

In Longbridge’s post this line applied to an ante-post bet I had.

“For GB and Irish racing: if a horse is balloted out, all bets on that horse will be void.”

After a Newmarket meeting (many years ago) me and my Wife, while waiting to be called to our table for dinner at the Rutland Arms Hotel, we got talking to Mark Prescott's head lad in the bar.

Without prompting he gave us a tip for the Cambidgeshire and I duly had a bet on it with Ladbrokes who dismissed the return of my money after it was balloted out. Citing if it doesn’t run I lose my money.

With nowhere to turn to I phoned Prescott’s yard and was told by a nice lady that because the horse was balloted out by the Jockey Club, due to too many runners, my stake should be returned.

She also told me the horse was entered for a small race at Newmarket the day before the Cambridgeshire.

So on the morning of that race I went to the Ladbrokes shop and made them phone head office who told the manager to return my £1,000.

We then drove up to Newmarket stopping for a nice lunch at the Swynford Paddocks hotel on the way.

I only had the one bet a grand @ 5/6 with Barry Dennis.

We stood in the stand and watched it win in a common canter and I gave the ticket to my Wife to collect.

While I was standing there two independent guys come up and thanked me because they both changed their bets, having seen me place mine, and followed me in big time.

It was about 15 minutes before I saw my Wife again because Dennis refused to pay her as she wasn’t the person who placed the be,t.

Apparently, she went and got the Ring Official to sort him out and came back smiling.



Those were the days.Laugh

pedantic definition: giving too much attention to formal rules or small details.

Not in my case or anybody else's it isn’t. Grin
