agree different, probably grannies and grandads of connection

If abandoned doubles still count!

Very well executed, remains to be seen if bookies pay out,surprised there is not more of this with prize money so relatively low

Have no sympathy with the bookies, look at the pay of that Coates woman at 356, they stop most people from winning virtually straight away, and even a couple of million will hardly dent their profits.

I couldn't care less about bookmakers stewarts bu 2 wrongs don't make a right.

why so many comments on if the bookies will pay out? if they took the prices and no palpable errors AND more importantly their warning systems - I wanted a score at 8s on andy dufresne and billys offered £2.33 at the price!! - then no legal basis not to pay out..

the rights and wrongs behind this gamble - does it include doubles or only the treble? - can be debated here ad infinitum but we all knew the score this morning and god bless them the BHA have had a word beforehand...as another poster said, the two jocks at musselburgh tell a 1000 stories!! midge mullen often rides for jardine and at least that horse a multiple aw winner

PP and bet victor are 2 who have big liabilities

got to be on at all odds from start opining to short only one man does it and last will win barring mishap surely.

any bet  to   cop more than a few hundred would have been referred to traders.

Fire Away: was heavily punted before winning at Musselburgh

All eyes are on Musselburgh and the third leg of a gambled-on big-priced treble after the first two won to leave bookmakers facing potentially significant payouts

The final leg of the treble is the Daragh Bourke-trained Gallahers Cross in the concluding 2m6f handicap hurdle (4.25) at Musselburgh. The eight-year-old opened at as big as 40-1 with some firms but is now as short as 8-13 to pick up a first win for his trainer.

Blowing Dixie landed the second leg of a gambled-on big-priced treble with a comprehensive success in the 1m4f handicap at Southwell.

Trained and owned by Iain Jardine, Blowing Dixie was sent off the 4-6 favourite having opened at 9-1 on Saturday.

That victory came after Fire Away landed the first leg of the gamble in the opening 2m4½f novice handicap chase at Musselburgh.

Fire Away was a general 22-1 when markets opened on Saturday, but was soon trimmed into 6-4 before being sent off the even money favourite at Musselburgh.

BetVictor head of trading Chris Poole said before racing: "We've taken a lot of multiple bets on three horses, all at very big prices and all at roughly the same time last night.

"That's our worst nightmare because there's nothing we can do about these liabilities.  We're stuck with it and we'll lose quite a lot of money. I can't go into figures."

Paddy Power spokesman Paul Binfield added: "It's fair to say we do have some liabilities and they're not inconsiderable."

On his first start for trainer Laura Morgan having left Bourke earlier this month, the eight-year-old Fire Away obliged by 19 lengths.

Morgan said: "We've only had the horse for 11 days, having bought him from Daragh Bourke. He had a couple of horses for sale and I bought him.

"I did actually go to buy the other lad, but we bought him instead. I definitely got a good buy and fingers crossed, he'll win a few more.

"I got told there was big money coming from Ireland, but I wouldn't have a clue to be honest. One of my bumper horses got smashed here and he got stuffed."

At the request of the BHA's integrity department, the connections of Fire Away were interviewed by the raceday stewards before the race.

They were asked to provide information regarding the selection of the race, their expectations for Sunday, and the riding instructions given. Their comments were noted.

As someone posted they can afford the odd coup but for anyone else who had a bet in that race (like me!) have a legit complaint as the race is a fix

correct

hope bet 365 have been caught...rancid firm

11kv...i hope they win all 3

Gallaghers Cross (16:25) at 'evens' or shorter got to be a 'lay', surely? Too short; win if he does not bring up a treble. It's nice to see bookies getting caned in a betting coup.

Fav still 5/4 for the last leg here

Me too Portmanpark.

At least his got the Cojones to go on tv & talk!

WE WILL PAY.   Got no choice whinging feckers
