just a final point from me to clarify if i said or hinted differently anywhere as there seems some confusion for some on this elsewhere
1/ the BRBA at no time have said or suggested what the bookmaker numbers would be . that is for the racecourse safety executive to decide on what pitches can be used on any one day 2/the phrase on the newsletter "bookmakers to come in order off the list " was inserted by the RCA course representative and NOT from the BRBA |

In trying to clarify adge you have confused me -- not difficult. Is he 'RCA course representative' you refer to a bookmaker or somebody from the RCA itself ? If the latter why would they wish to get involved in your words 'the order off the list' ? As for'pick 32' I would have thought this pick is only worth working on major days on major tracks but I am sure somebody will put me right in that regard !!

clearly not the only one , democrat.
that part of the newsletter was first sent to the RCA for their thumbs up before being sent to the members and the RCA course representative edited it for the final proof accordingly. then the whole newsletter was cleared by the BRBA solicitor before being distributed to the members. obvious really , pleased it was pointed out to me . the term as written on the newsletter says "bookmakers to come in number order off the list ". now if any bookmaker had written that he would have said "bookmakers to be allocated in seniority order " |

I've read somewhere this morning that hospitality, pubs, restaurants etc, would like the 2 metre rule reducing. Looks like that will come sooner rather than later so the consultations will have to start again and pick 32 will get a nice move up!!!

Latest news is that the RCA are giving serious consideration to a proposal whereby bookmakers who want to bet, turn up and fight it out.....when asked,7ft tall, black belt Peter Hardnut said " that sounds like a very reasonable solution to me".....5ft tall Graham Bottlejob said " steady on now, Peter is a good friend of mine and I wouldn't want to upset him in ANY way.......let's stick with odd and even".....

Allocation of pitches should be done in alphabetical order of books - by Christian name. On reflection the alleged lack of consultation if true might have been done in order to keep costs/ expenses to a minimum - good thinking by and fair play to the BRBA !
