rico, so you had funds, you stood to lose £150k, you thought the horse had a chance in the last mile but did nothing, only one word for that, masochism. Didn't the Daily Star ever arrange for you to meet Thommo?!

Still here ... been in Dubai a long time was back home 1 week before Cheltenham and back at it full time now again..do a mixture of backing and laying with a green up now instead made 350 today and finished at 4pm and went drinking lovely weather.. got a message then saying huge 1000 done about 30 mins after I left..no problem posting proof of activity if anyone wants as i always posted my losses when they happened.. kind of tipsy now so better not chat too much

Staying - have so much respect for you not many would post that loss..very surprised you left so much to be taken but lesson learnt it happens is all and you will get it back no doubt.. if you are betting that amount tho and not taken straight away I’d advise having a kill on it

Brutal for Stayinn I didn't realize the horse was still in the race , I would imagine he thought it had pulled up as well .

By:
Got to say fair play to the jockey, many better jockeys would had pulled it up.

Who are the 1000 backers? Why would they back that one ? Most of the time it must be chucking money away .
|
|
By:
Easy money 99.9% of the time then a jock with a bit of nouse turns up and well u know the rest.....
|
|
By:
Yes I think they mostly back bad value mano. But I suppose they just want the chance of a big payout out of the blue. Like buying a lottery ticket which is also bad value.

By:
Manoleeds, exactly, MOST of the time. But yeah I also find it a waste of time. If you're good you will hit what, 1 in 500? Is it worth all that trouble?

Who are the 1000 backers? roberto is if the submitting of the 1000 upsets the race % and suits their agenda..if someone is in a hopeless position and a big 1000 is submitted,its either taken by a speculator or the person with the quickest pics if it gets back into the race. |

since the 23rd of March 2020 and the first lockdown I have been out socialising once, my bookmaker took me and a in-running player out for dinner to a steak house restaurant in Yarm; it was very nice by the way.
We got reminiscing about good and bad days and we ended up talking about that fatal day at Thornaby, the in-running player had been there so I asked him how Steve took it, he said Ronnie you would not believe how well he took it, he just shrugged his shoulders and that was it. Happy Easter everyone, Ronnie |
