Wrong Photo shown - carnage

someone made some dough there

Oh dear.

how many put away.

You have one job to do .. 

No such thing as easy money

Was too slow getting bet in when realised what had happened .....

Thought going past the line New Order had definitely been beaten so the photo they showed was shocking to me, thankfully didn't get burnt, but horrible for those that did

RUK should be sued for that-absolutely disgusting.

Doesn't Sandown have previous for this?

has this ever happened at Sandown before.... yes several times but not like that!

10 in the photo was very generous.

Photo still from the wrong winning post !! Is this a first.?

that's captain stat and NEVO should be sacked on spot 25 quid a month to be put away by 2 loonies in the studio,

me too grayhawk

i don't rem it glasgow

other tracks of all configurations seem to cope fine with just ONE winning line.

fooked about checking if I had mixed em up and got it wrong ...fafo too late !

no excuse for jocks bet what's the betting captain stat and NEVO come up with an excuse for confusing winning points in slow motion after race has finished 

Rico usually first to post on these, gone quiet!

im not sure if they are using both today but if not why is a camera operating on both? bha should still be asking questions because it affects the integrity of racing, feel sorry for those put away

Well the index stats said it had won

2019.

ANYBODY looking at that first photo HAD to have double checked themselves and thought " hang on ".

It's normally only the jockeys who get the winning post wrong.

you cant blame others for your own mistake...in real time it was obvious who had won

Correct isleham

Slow-mo i should have said

just when you thought captain stats telling viewers Lauren bay was comforatbly the best jumper in the field would be his biggest car crash of the day

Elise - I think the photos are RUK coverage stills not BHA official photos.

Third Wind & One For Rosie 2019

Correct isleham but the photo immediatelY contradicted your impression. I am disgusted as in the moment I panicked and got severely hurt. They should feel the consequence of such incompetence when people get harmed by it.

Heavily greened on the winner. Then saw the slo-mo, and WHAT?! Figured it out just too late to get any of the 6.0+ available.

who cud be certain was rong line?

I wasn't involved at all but to be fair there's a photo on screen to consider and the fact you might have mixed up which winning post was been used for a second

Exactly.
Two different winning posts are not a help either

seemless from racing TV straight to meydan,then straight to cobbden, not a peep

Jockeys looked as if they rode to the wrong post as well

Going past the line I was pretty sure New Order had defo been headed so the photo really confused me. I didn't act either way but I do wonder who was laying big the 1.1x on New Order as on the photo shown it was clear winner, and they kept laying so you do feel someone made a packet there knowing they were printing money, and likewise some people have lost big betting on the wrong photo. You just hope it was the money buyers who lost big, but you suspect they might be the ones copping the lot !

Well done Howard.

you knew the slo mo was the wrong line howey and won 600 quid?  fckn pmsl

You never know betfair might void all bets like the did with that Irish mare at the leopardstown Christmas meeting.

That's what you call a sharp mind Very well done.

never saw the slo-mo rico   use my own recording equipment and know which line to stop it on

won a head howey and 5/1...is your equipment blurry?

Grayhawk and Foyleswar: Don't be hard on yourselves for being careful and re-checking, thus missing the opportunity to back the winner. The people who did their brains on the slow-mo were precisely the ones who didn't have that attitude.

There's always the self-doubt in the heat of the moment. Staring down 6.0 on the horse you were sure had won is somewhat mind-blowing. At least Howard clicked on the 6.0, I didn't click at all until too late.

solid 1/6 the 2nd in photo betting and no one loses,jamee attended more weddings than Elizabeth Taylor,never seen 1 funeral.

was there a sl[o no on racing TV,I didn't see one they went straight to showing a still on wrong line didn't they ,with a bit of waffle in-between and read out odds connected to the wrong photo shown didn't they ?

yeah didn't really need it.    no cherry picking  my next bookie bet

I didn't bet any after the slo-mo. Last funeral was Monday evening at Wolves.

that was a killer jamie. Thought it was odd the 1.05 in the photo I wud have said it was  almost a short head

don't play at those odds myself and any bigger u really would have smelt a rat

Yep Screaming...could have dived in and got it wrong

Racing TV showed a slow-mo and seconds later a still with the second a neck in front

yes you are correct screaming !

how long do you think it would take Cooper/sandown to sort impossible solution if they were told your getting  anymore NH fixtures till you have only one winning post
week ?
2 weeks ?
month ?
6 months ?

i stopped it on rtv..i thort far sides won..clicked to lay this side..slo mo come on and i froze...

but,if i used recording equipment and knew the slo mo was rong line i'd have been mortified if i didnt win £10,000.

People bet in vastly differing amounts,Rico.
BTW,I was not involved.
The configuration of the Course makes it impossible to have one winning post

Those with experience get the money those with money get the experience

Very true,jimnast.

there was noone who were certian rtv showed the rong line or it wouldnt have been a strong 1/6.

There's no doubt you've got the bottle whatever the situation. Truth is sometimes I get horses /colours mixed up and have on 3 occasions ( in 20+ years  tbf )  knew what had won but pressed lay rather than back or vice versa.   Betfair let me put in £100 a month max.  Can't really risk clearing the account or anything like.  Sooner they change this sh1te the better.

When you say ‘recording device’, Howard, is that just rewinding live TV or something far more technical?

Says a lot when shrewdies with 'recording equipment' like Howard are getting restricted to a ton a month

pioneer dvr-550HX-s        Made me real good  money over the years but very slim pickings these days.  It pauses live tv just before the line and then you press for frame by frame to the line.  I can still often beat the rtv slo-mo but of course I'm  looking at an inferior angle .

i obv do same with sky.

How everything has changed it use to be punter versus bookie

It was always punter v punter jimnast.  Successful bookies just the middlemen.  Winning punters have always taken money from losing punters.  It's just so obvious on here.

Just googled it. I used to have one myself.  I bet it’s old enough to bet itself now!

2008. Should have been betting 10k a photo in them days. Did get the odd one wrong / stewards you haven't spotted.

Never heard it put like that Howard interesting

thats why i karnt crash in ennimare..the dreaded bing bong.

It was pretty hi-tech back then. Most TV packages have all that built in now though with the obvious delays.

true just a pity you only have HDMI out  no recording because of  copyright  was allowed in such machines.   Now with the switch off of rtv SD in a few weeks it's likely all over unless I take Sky.  But that would be £28 a month for sky + rtv cost  so minimum of £40 a month just to watch rtv which can be watched quicker on my 2nd computer.

It’s different to the one I had then. Mine did record.

Sounds an expensive way of getting RTV. May be a touch cheaper if you got your broadband with them too.

They changed Leicester jumps meetings to one winning line a few years ago. Now the hurdle course is ok, but the chase course is at an angle of about 105%, favouring the nearside by half a length, if they raced wide apart, the full width of the track.

I take it you mean it recorded using a scart kenbo which is how mine works.  It's my understanding that none of these machines whoever the manufacturer were allowed to have HDMI in recording.  They would have been locked up.

You could have made a fortune in pirate DVD's

Our apologies for the earlier incorrect information

Why two lollipop sticks ffs.
No need for it.

Hope ye made a right killing on the exchange’s. Not too dissimilar to the way you often go straight to the head on when there’s a tight photo. Boys in the studio have plenty of time to profit watching the freeze frame while the mug punters are clueless watching the head on

       Fella on X having a rant at RTV, fair point tbh.

if 1 decent backer knew was rong line the 2nd would not have stayed at 1.16.

simples.

At least one person was aware because it was evident live which horse had 'won' on both lines. So something was keeping the price out on the perceived winner. Obviously people are limited to their available balance.

i stopped live on RTV and knew far side had won...i bet it...then when slo mo comes on if im further sure i will have sometimes huge amounts on..i froze.

In my mind I knew what had won, look at the market, what's going on, too good to be true, almost at the same time, rtv flash up the still showing the other one winning.

Hands up, I didn't twig that they'd used the wrong line for the still. But obviously baffled why it was so different to what I'd just watched.

Obviously it was possible that the race was called to the wrong line, and rtv had used the right still.

Most of us have been on here for long enough to instinctively know the market was wrong. I did, it was, but I didn't know exactly why in those few seconds. But in my opinion, the fact hat it immediately looked wrong means at least one person was switched on!

It is incredible that the claimed IR bettors making a profit do not have the technology and speed to compete but beat the layers they claim?

Then some claim what they used to do is now fraud because they are so far behind?

even more incredible that a forumite claimed to have a winning cistern for sale for £600,000 yet the same clown cudnt tip rubbish tonite?

MUG, I never "claimed" anything!! HTH

As far as I am aware I personally own the only method which will produce a long term profit,not a "system" as popularly refered to and devised after 2 decades + of research.My sole motivation for posting on any racing or betting forum is to give the average punter an edge.No more,no less.

My method would be no good to the average or even prudent punter or greedy chancers.I had an offer to purchase it following a trial by 4 individuals on the BF Forum,over a year using it.Bound by copyright etc and proven beyond doubt the worth of it.

The only time I was tempted to sell I had an offer that was £40,000 short of the £600,000 I would accept.All documented and recorded for posterity.I would only sell on condition that the proceeds went to SSAFA,knowing full well that would be the only payoff.

The offer came from a well known tipping operation who continue to rip off punters Nationwide and now coming up to their most lucrative period.

It is still for sale but £600k is the minumum I would consider to part with it on behalf of SSAFA!!

So no lies shafter or faked attempt to prove anything?

Offer is there again for a face to face and show all, Blesma and SSAFA will be present.

Will you with the £5K you owe?

khan ewe bring this cistern with ewe?

can somebody upload photo of winning line from head on camera on chase course at Leicester, Jet Planes race

head on isnt on sporting life replay.

both hurdle and chase races finish on the same line, but the chase course approaches it at an angle of 15%-20%, it shows what i'm trying to explain if that photo was produced
