Maybe just me no buzz. I am not English however street of about 60 houses, 40+ would have flags out for the football tournaments.....just one. Someone would mention Royal Ascot. Is it apathy or sport saturation?

Cost of living crisis and now a St Georges flag is seen as racist by many. Not a good combo

The Tote World Pool is in operation this week. I read that the course get paid a flat fee of £500,000 perday for running it! That's a nice earner for Ascot but it also shows how much money the Tote are raking in of which the vast majority is from overseas money. Now what is it that overseas punters know about Ascot's turns, uphill finish, draw biases, or British jockeys and their styles, or Sires and their offsprings preferences? Nothing. They know nothing. This helps create the fav / longshot bias and it helps create value exotics such as the Exacta, Trifecta, Placepot and hopefully by the end of the week a huge Jackpot. |

What is World Pool?
World Pool is a collaboration between global totes and the Hong Kong Jockey Club (HKJC). World Pool allows bettors from all over the globe to bet into a single pool, bringing them together into one multi-million pound pool betting experience. Through national commingling, racing fans from countries such as Hong Kong, Australia, France, the USA and the UK all effectively bet into the same pool for each race. After huge success for World Pool across key British and Irish fixtures such as Royal Ascot and British Champions Day, the Hong Kong Jockey Club is set to host more World Pool days on British and Irish race meetings. |

..... I can copy and paste as well ....
Are there any bet types which aren’t World Pool? The Placepot and our other multileg bets won’t be commingled. The Tote Exacta is another pool which will only be available to UK bettors. |

Who are the 'many' who think the English flag is racist?
Loony loony lefties? And if those that refuse to raise an English flag, don't due to this belief, surely they are as weak and pathetic as those that believe flying their country's flag is an issue. We are doomed..... |

"Who are the 'many' who think the English flag is racist"
No doubt the same ones who tried to intimidate and protesting outside the school when they disapproved of the curriculum being taught; who want UK to be an extension of their original country eg corrupt/politically violent/unstable/ destitute/undemocratic/sexist/blindly religious, etc. But, they are still exploiting our welfare state, generosity, kindness and tolerance. The UK is the UK, not an extension of their homeland, period. |
