if it was deliberate how do you guarantee you win the race? If you are replying to me Willie it wasn't deliberate, it was a mistake. The wife panicked. |

Agree with Dave, voiding has very few downsides.
Ban should be a lot bigger as well. Change the rules, or how about we let horses that complete without a jockey onboard stand as well guys? |

a horse isnt guaranteed to win carrying 4lbs less than allocated..

its a bit like the fc markets on here by way of solving problem - if a horse is DQd for weighing in light/too heavy then IR market should be voided - in fc betting a horse not entering stalls prior to off deems market null n void - amazing how betfair void all winning bets by the way but quite often tekk foreva to settle "in accordance" with their rules when ya bet was a loser anyway (i.e. return ya stakes)

I would agree with voiding all in-running bets when there is a weight discrepancy but at the same time I suspect the 1000 layers, while agreeing with voiding, also know there are many 1000s of races where this doesn't happen so they will continue as the odds remain in their favour.

So if you've layed Redarna IR pre-race and backed it IR the former stands and the latter viod ? WALOFS.

That happens more often when the event isn't put in play properly, do you think that rule should be changed?

Completely unfair on the jockey, unless he's the one who is saddling up how on earth can he be responsible and subsequently banned or fined? I wonder if the trainer's wife would have said anything if security cameras hadn't picked up what happened!

By:
ive said from the outset,if there is any interruption to the in play market the entire market should be void.
hardly rocket science. |
|
By:
Dave , that happens more often but it's Betfair's fault. So as there's "no other exchange " you have to take it.

I backed a jumper a few years ago, I think Fergie owned it.He won the race and weighed in a couple of pounds light,as it was a very hot day he was allowed to keep the race as the jockey could have sweated the 2lb.That was the 1st time I have known a light winner to be allowed to keep the race.I feel for anyone who lost because of that yesterday.

For those of you wanting the IR voided, surely the DQed horse should also be deemed a NR from pre-race markets (with appropriate R4) unless the loss of weight can be explained during the race (eg the weight cloth falls out while they're running)?

why should the IR be voided? no diff to a horse getting disq.
|
|
By:
wat? obv it's different. The weight falling off during the run is the equivalent of the stewards/DQ as the incident can be observed, but no one can possibly know a horse hasn't been saddled with the right weight.
@Latalomne that seems reasonable. |

By:
people seem to forget that you are not betting on first past the post, you are betting on the official result after the weighed in signal has been given, and by definition they are not always the same thing
caveat emptor!! |
Surprised you didn't lay it at 1000 willie
