can't see what point that was a 1000 shot, or anywhere near?

Pays £101.00 on the nanny.

No surprise there then.

Came under bit of pressure before home straight, but that makes it tops about 80s shot in that prominent position...odd laying.

BSP was 150 or thereabouts. Nice work if you can get it. I have been betting since 8 and I have only ever bet 1 winner at 100/1 all my life and that was many moons ago long before BF.

Interesting that got dropped 4lbs from 72 to 68 for finishing back of the field over 7f last time with Hollie onboard...
Dwelt start, towards rear, outpaced and pushed along over 4f out, never on terms op 14/1

I noticed that Slippy, Tote paying £101 !!  Laughable.

The tote is the nearest thing there is to a SP only bookie. How it's allowed amazes me.

The 125/1 winner Today scooped the lucky Tote win punters £126! As opposed to the same price winner when the Tote was being run straight  in years gone by you would have got the keys to the shop and a round the world cruise.

Has Woodrow Wyatt returned as Tote Chairman?   You might well recall Big Mac exposing a big Tote scandal in the 1970s.

Hey all - not a huge betting person myself, just do a few lay bets over a couple of pints! But anyhow I put €1 on this horse to win. In running about 1.30 in. I can’t remember what odds he came down to when I put the bet on - perhaps 20/1? After I clicked it though, the odds changed to 1000. But luckily my bet matched at 1000. Even more luckily he won!

He joined today..

Backing a 1000/1 is easier than finding the forum.

Plus how did he place the bet if joined today.

Amazing

The join date on here must be the day we joined the forum or made our first post?

Nice winner. They’ve normally fell when they go from 20/1 to 1000.

Yeah I only joined the forum today (had to create a username to join forum) But I was a bit shocked when it happened, I thought it was some glitch or something and expected my balance to be reduced by the €999 shortly after it happened.

Great.well done.

Think finding the forum is harder than backing a 1000/1 shot.so your lucks in.

Best to just save the forum site to your favourites.
Report comingupthehill June 9, 2024 7:20 PM BST
Pointless on the app.has its unusable on your phone anyway,as the menu overlays the threads.

Why don’t Betfair phone the nearest school and set the GCSE students a programming task to make the forum work properly on a phone,the student who solves it first,gets 50 free spins on their 18th birthday.

It’s a shame when paddy took over they disbanded the I.T dept,

I hardly ever use my phone online but on the odd occasion when I do I have no access problems for the forum with it saved as a favourite.
Report comingupthehill June 9, 2024 7:36 PM BST
Yeah easy to access. Impossible to use,navigate,half the screen is the menu,even once clicked on a sport.so it’s constant moving of screen ,read 3 words,swipe,read another 3 words swipe..

That's why I always use my laptop online. Only time I used my phone was when I went to the course.

Could be worst could be the new racing post page turning graphics.evented to give the feel of reading the paper.

Trouble is,print to small to read,so have to zoom in,then swipe to read,then can’t turn page till zoom out,just cumbersome.
Was fine with 1 page per screen,could read all the page then swipe for next page.

Never ever in a board room meeting has anyone said,let’s just leave everything has it is,it’s great.people have to change things to justify their jobs..
