Was in the bookies this morning, as usual
A old bay, mate of mine, says to me just as I'm leaving, already done my placepots and other bets for the day...
I fancy these 3 at Bath today...

Throne hall, jax edge, bobbie dazzler

I say, that's weird, they're all 7/1 (in baldies)
So I did a 50p ew trixie plus 1 pound treble, 5 quid stake, just in case, he can find them

They all won, I think 2 of the prices has shortened to 13/2  before I put the bet on

It returned £777 plus pennies


How weird is that?

Apologies for the aftertiming

The size of peoples bets is irrelevant to me,as long as they actually do bet.
Take note Delbert

It would be a little bittersweet if he’s landed four of them and only gave you three! Wink

Let’s hope he got them all.

What a big difference 2 little price changes makes

Great bet all the same, very nice.

You're going to be on SP only now, Reg.

Bobby Dassler was a right old gamble, from a gambling yard. Tonguestrap on for the first time for Alison Thorpe, 5 lb claimer booked, the only horse in the race guaranteed to act on heavy, and stay the mile at Bath and not be too old to win another race. Looked properly hard fit too.

Who can get on with the Books that has even has half a clue,screaming?
Report screaming from beneaththewaves October 20, 2025 9:34 PM BST
Punters who bet 50p each way trixies and £1 each way trebles.

Even then, Reg ended up having about a hundred quid running on to Bobby Dassler at 7/1 or 13/2. The SP was 3/1. Fred is not going to like that.

All I want is to be able to back singles at the prices on supposed offer

Cheers lads, screaming, I thought you were maybe just a West Country Jumps fan?
Didn't realise from chatting before that you do the flat as well

Exeter on tomorrow, are you going? I must say it's my least favourite track to visit, they dissappear out of view down the back straight, give me Newton abbot any day

Reg,the Course needs rain which is unlikely by tomorrow.
A Course I like when there is some give in the ground.
Another day,another dollar

Cheers, uptheirons, I hadn't realised they were still waiting for rain, we had plenty at the weekend

Nice one Reg, just shows how luck impacts all of us. You can do all the form study the night before wait to find the going in the morning, get your bets on what you think are good things and lose the lot. Bumping into someone who gives you 3 horses he fancies (and you put them in a trixie), and they all win. Hope you give him the odd pennys as a tip, be ever better if was 77p.
