Punters Robbed Then Bookies Robbed

De Valira having disgraced himself yesterday turned up for the second race today,it was obvious to,me he would refuse to race again but this time the consequences were savage for the punter,there were 16 runners therefore Quarter the odds four places but on his withdrawal this became three places.
All bets placed were into a four place market indeed it was clearly marked on the computerised ticket,the withdrawn horse was mercifully any price so no deduction but the Pass The Hat backers lost their each way money.

The punters got some semblance of revenge in the big one as those who availed of the 2/1 Quevega gained by the normally savage rule 4 when Solwhit was withdrawn giving them a price of 6/5 when it probably realistically was a 4/7 shot,this gain is tempered by the fact she would have won anyway.
