And the result of this years Derby wouldn’t encourage anyone to go, if they knew the narrative of flip flopping favs from the same yard, both gambled on, pushed out and then shortened. Then not even looking competitive in the race itself.
Thats a hard thing to sell anyone.
Anti post or even on the day, the money came for Delacroix the Fav and a feeble excuse was given for his non effort.
But when you’ve seen it all before as with in the Guineas, it becomes normal, that’s not good or acceptable.

"11 runners and only 2 places paid E?W"
That would mean the bookie is expecting at least 3 non-runners = 3 non-refundable antepost stakes = pure profit. Is this not sharp practice?

It’s wrong whatever you call it. But there’s lots of bookies on here so bound to not agree impossible.
Just talk biscuits and you’ll be alright!
Bookies or wannabe bookies or bookies masquerading as naive punters with inside info to snare recreational punters on as yet publicly unknown non-runner or an injured horse.
Insider-dealing could carry a custodial sentence in the City Of London, but not in horseracing. Here it's kudos.

I can see the sockless flashing the card to bet tbh….doubt many of them will carry the readies….
I recently went Sandown , Cards only at the Bar , Cash with Books and Tote
acey, you can't get in with cash, you can't eat or drink with cash at lots of tracks. Don't forget your card.
Oh the card is in the wallet swifty…..ping for coffees….

The whole point of a day's gambling at the races is cash. You get a nice win and are told that should be in your account in 5 working days.
'Delayshay', I've just seen 'Andrew's' post. I think I've binned the poster before. Maybe he's using a slightly different moniker now. And, the assumption my post or hatred for bookies was based on losses prior was condescending, probably arrogant and insecurity all rolled into one. Maybe 'Andrew' has not heard of the saying "act ignorant and stupid, play the opposition at their own game to win".
The horseracing turnover may be down, but the Levy is up; Levy is based on gross profit. Little doubt the gross profit was boosted by an increase in profit in fobt.
Anyone can see the bookies are running horseracing to suit themselves hence the present spiral decline. The bookies' smokescreen has hoodwinked even the supposedly well-versed posters here. Or disingenuity at its worst.

levy only paid on gross profits from horse racing bets. that's the problem
Swifty
Racecourse bookmakers are ONLY allowed to pay out in cash regardless of how the bet was placed.
And would NOT be allowed to pay 1st 2 on 8 plus runners

What'd happen you splashed out, and you won. But, the winning is not in your account yet. In the meantime there's insufficient fund in one's account for another proper bet.
What'd happen next? Go home, or kick up a storm?

If I understand correctly there will come a point where the Levy can only go progressively less and less if the Levy is based on the gross profit of horseracing, and betting in horseracing is on the downhill spiral. Now, I'm betting at least 80% less than just 5 years ago; 40% since last year.
Impossible Andrew has been ok with me and engaged about the Prix Diane, I can’t talk for him about his comments but wanted to show him that they aren’t saints.
Billies has a crooked market where they list 11 but only pay two places. This means that the expect non runners and are willing to take bets on horses that they know won’t show - it’s a disgrace and those in the journalism game or on tv won’t call them out as there might be an advert to make by same pay masters.
I agree they are ruining things but racing as a whole needs to get honest with itself.

Sandown is part of jcr and I believe that is part of the problem they have with falling attendance many people still like to keep things private and don’t need there bank knowing they spent £40 going in a race course around the same on a few drinks and then a score a race probably not over keen on the wife finding out either.

There was a poster named 'Andrew' who repeatedly posted his lay bets. It was getting seriously annoying. I do not give a hoot how one bets as betting is only a game to me and probably most including those by so called "professional" tipsters pid by bookies to drum up trade. As such, I put the individual on 'ignore'.
impoosible, that's the trouble , the last time I went into a betting shop, you had to find which of the 20-odd screens had the betting and horse race you were interested in, hidden amongst the other sports, cartoons etc. The people in there wanted a quick fix, whatever was coming on next, almost certainly not the next race 10 minutes later.
Stringvest,chuckle just noticed lol ffs…..

Andrew posted his lay bets before the race took place nothing wrong with that is there ?

jimnast, that is the problem of joint bank accounts and modern technology, they know what you're drinking before you've even taken it off the bar!
I’m very lucky swifty the wife drinks the same amount as me and has more bets than me 
'Delashay', I spoke from experience.
I complained about the market here about Man City winning an unspecified number of trophies last season, and its handling of it eg repeated suspension for long periods. I'd not manage my position but was offered £25 as compensation for the inconvenience.
I went to IBAS. I won, and got my entire stake back (over £900); betfair admitted to IBAS their market was "malformed" - their description. Some here (probably bookies/traders from other bookies) were laying long odds on these (malformed) markets using odds from another bookie eg Boyles.
If this 'Andrew' is the same 'Andrew' from the past I'll put him on 'ignore' again. I do not like posters being deliberately disingenuous and condescending.

Such an experience would leave a bitter taste I’m sure. Take it like water off a ducks back. We all have bad days and some need to chill quite a bit.
They remind me of the guys in the bookies beating up the machines and calling it coova!

I once saw a guy of that ilk in the tote put so much in without payout that he actually stood there a pissed himself rather than leave the machine to go toilet! 
'jimnast', not on almost every blooming race. I cannot see the valid reason for doing that unless for self interest only eg I'd put up what I fancy in a big race or two, but not everyone on the card.
Anyway, I'm done with 'Andrew'.

I’d seen it all in that little tote. Walked in after an armed robbery of which there were three during my time there!
Guy was wearing his birthday pressie a leather jacket from his mum, the two armed raiders were told to F off by the lovely Jamaican lady Olive so they took out their frustration on him and pistol whipped him.
The police took his new jacket as evidence.
Months later I saw him and asked did you get your jacket back? No he said, they lost it!
The police lost it!
I never stood by him when writing a bet, felt he was unlucky big time!

True with the steady influx of world media and pocket kept devices to feed it to the people.
The two most powerful men in America ie Mush and President Trump. One moment they were inseparable, next they were bickering in public like a pair of old foggies. How can anyone reconcile that? Thank goodness we are not Americans.
We didn’t manage to save the Derby but I hope at least one of you laughed at happenings in the tote!
Personally I miss the smoke in the air and characters, nite clubs weren’t the same without smoking or pubs for me.
The smoke covered up many smells!
Best days were had.
Get fit, stay fit, live long, pay your stamp and lose your marbles, end up in a hospital bed on an old persons ward, not being fed unless your family visit.
Sell that dream, the beginning is easy, the rest is never thought of.

I don’t know if mush was a deliberate mistake or not impossible but either way very amusing
Impossible we have a king without the class of his mother who wants more into politics, dint celebrate yet and the Americans that I’ve met were lovely. Not all my family but you can’t choose those.

Leave Charlie alone. The Queen was a hard task to emulate despite many years as the understudy.
Next week I'd like to see both Rosallion and Field Of Gold to win. At least both are on Day 1 which gives me a bit of time to rejig plan, if necessary.

He will soon be treading thin water by engaging in politics. People will ask - did we vote for you? He should be neutral which he isn’t.
Will Pride Of Aras run at The Curragh against Lambourne? I think he ought to given the kudos that will bring. A few of the Epsom runners are shying away eg Ruling Court, Damysus, Delacroix and The Lion In Winter.
I apologise if my post upsets anyone or brings back bad memories, but if ever you’re loved one is there, in that situation - be there.
I’m sorry that you’ve witnessed the same Jimnast.

It’s true they are ducking him, the two named lastly were never Derby prospects Impossible. It was talk.
Asides TStud - The only danger might come from within his own stable. I’m waiting for entries.
TS showed a good turn of foot once in the clear at Epsom. Had been written off as a Leger hacker, but then again Lambourn was in that category going into the Derby.

I'll give Charlie till 2030. Post this I think he'll hand the throne to his elder son, Prince William. I cannot see him replicating his mum until he pops the clog.
Cheers Jimnast have a good evening.

At least Ascot is near and may your fortunes change, no non runners!

Like some have indicated we're here mainly to exchange views - some more eloquently and knowledgeable - nevertheless, they are opinions all the same; horseracing is a game or pastime to most here. However, if someone repeated use their "horsey knowledge" to post their lay bets here then it's prudent to believe there must be an ulterior motive by the individual eg self-interests and/or a wannabe or a bookie (trader perhaps) masquerading as a recreational punter here. Whichever one can always bin or put the poster on "ignore" like I've done (again).
Anyone who is vociferous and non-conducive to the above could exercise their right with the "ignore" facility. But, disingenuity is the 2nd most abhorrent trait on this forum, personally.

Here’s my take on the Dante and the runners involved. For me it was a pig of a race and it could well house the winner of the Epsom classic, but I’ll wait and see what unfolds as the bunched finish doesn’t look good.
My concern for Pride Of Arras was that he looked very fit, watch as he crosses the line, every rib is glistening and you see every sinew under his belly. He’s very lightly raced so can improve but how much more fitness wise I’m not sure.
He’s a good yard stick for Beckets other runner Stanhope Gardens.
After the long lay off will Pride Of Areas bounce? Is that why Aiden is so soft with the re introduction to his runners after the break? It’ll be fascinating to see how the two trainers approaches play out.
Anyone reading Impossible and I can see we are two different people! The bullying here from some is despicable and I sincerely hope that you pluck up the courage to tell someone in real life when they upset you. Don’t carry the hate or resentment it’ll only eat you.

In recent days I thought it was looking an interesting and open race.
Looking again today I think Pride Of Arras is still value at 5s, and have gone in again.
Good luck all.
Better luck next time shandy

I have backed Pride Of Arras for reasons I gave a couple of weeks ago.
I especially like the fact he won first time out when the Becket yard was quiet.
They seem to be coming to the boil now.
Delacroix is the obvious danger, and has won his two trials impressively.
Ruling Court looks a bit speedy to me, and I have doubts about him staying the 12f.
The Lion In Winter can not be backed on his come back run. Of course comparisons will be made to Ballydoyles last two winners, and we know how much their horses improve from debut. But neither Auguste Rodin or City Of Troy had set backs as a 2 year old, and they both made their seasonal debut in the Guineas. Giving them an extra couple of weeks before the Derby.

Going in again on a 5/1 shot in 19 runner field from a high draw with rain forecast was either greedy, foolhardy or the act of pug munter - Maybe both are relevant here in this case!
It’s easy to get swept away with the hype I suppose and the racing press online and on tv did that in abundance.
If that wasn’t bad enough there was ONE HUGE STAT that counted against the under odds runner. I’d of gladly mentioned it beforehand but given the animosity shown previously that ACE sat and will sit quiet!

Whether it’s down to losses or not, it isn’t the point. The SJP has been priced up and I see more and more of these place terms being offered.

Anyway I’m not here to argue or name call, I’ve said all that. I hoped maybe share some stats and insights that have been useful to me over the years. With a view to putting up some nice price winners. I don’t pick many but they are real odds when I do!
Favs aren’t for me, laying isn’t either and it appears that my way upsets some. Please don’t engage if I’m not your cuppa. All this makes me feel less like giving a heads up when I spot one now and it shouldn’t be that way.
Now I’ll log back into Impossible JOKE!
There’s lots to study form wise for Ascot to study and all our efforts are best spent there rather than negative exchanges.

'Delashay', do not worry about it! I've never been mistaken for someone else here. Maybe it's just an individual with a propensity to annoy or to manage self-insecurity or boredom.
'Andrew and brandy' are on ignore. I do not want to see what they post esp Andrew's lay bets; I very rarely lay bets unless it's a sure thing eg superboost, to achieve a green; etc. I'm sure as individuals they are sociable and pleasant. But, just their posts on this forum.

Here's a proposition for you Delashay......
In my opinion i reckon yourself , Irons and brandy are good posters with a lot of good opinions and all three of you generate interesting topics of conversation.
Issue with others like myself outside the " trio " is the continued sniping which i'm sure i speak for everyone by saying it's a turn off ending with us missing out on some interesting discussion.
Suppose the question to ask is if any of you are prepared to wipe the slate clean , cut out the personal insults and give us all the opportunity to read / digest the conversation instead of reaching for the back to topics button.
I know what response i'm expecting but just hoping i'm wrong , good luck

Issue with others like myself outside the " trio " is the continued sniping which i'm sure i speak for everyone by saying it's a turn off ending with us missing out on some interesting discussion.
Suppose the question to ask is if any of you are prepared to wipe the slate clean , cut out the personal insults and give us all the opportunity to read / digest the conversation instead of reaching for the back to topics button.

Hayden I said my piece after being continually bitten at, I offered people the chance to join the races discussion repeatedly. My second post yesterday was my attempt at saying let’s leave it there. However, I won’t be bullied and stand my ground on my opinions.
It’s twice that I’ve had to say that I’m not here to bully or harangue anyone, racing is a passion of mine and I decided to join in after watching from the outside, to try to bring something new and engage with people who have the same love for the sport as me.
Appreciate you enjoy some of what we’ve all said and your effort.
Impossible I think we might be like marmite and you’re welcome to do as you find, Andrew’s thread isn’t annoying to me and he has an interest in French racing the same as Smoky, it’s something that I also enjoy lots.

Indeed 'Delashay'. I do what suits me best. Each to his/her own, it's my adage. It's only a horseracing forum afterall.
Fair enough Delashay , i'm sure Irons and brandy will echo that so looks like we have a positive outcome
Good luck today " trio "
