They really haven't.

 

It was meant to be a sarcastic comment as myself and StevieB had both won a few quid.  :friends:

 

Although Min not winning in the Novices did save their blushes.

 

Treble:

Yanworth 13.30

More of That  14.10

Un De Sceaux 15.30

 

Blazer ew  14.50

Ah, I see.  Sarcasm doesn't always transmit well in text, as I know from past poor experiences!

 

Even Min wouldn't have killed them to be fair. All the bluster about a single horse creating a £5m payout etc etc never tells you that they've taken the same and more on all the losers.

 

Without margins/overrounds etc, a simple book with a horse at evens, means half of all stakes is on that horse. If it wins, they break even. (well, they make 9% on the over round  as a true even money shot gets priced at 10/11)

 

I'd 4 winners from 7 yesterday and 4 lines on the placepot, but considering it's what I do for a living, it wasn't a brilliant day.

Cheers for the advice, i'll keep it in mind.

 

Read something about McManus owned horses in Coral Cup being primed for the race due to a betting coup???

Any advice on this what this is? All three of his entries in the race don't look the best on paper, I assume I'm missing something though??

Trafs favourite bookie, Sky bet, will refund a bet up to 25 quid on the 1.30 race at Cheltenham as a free bet.

 

I'm on black hercules.

 

SlyBet?

Everyone's favourite bookie :D

 

To be fair, they've been doing this offer all week.
