The question for me now is which horse will be the main Mullins representative: Getabird, Cilaos Emery, Voix Du Reve (hope not), Bapaume or something else?

Was thinking earlier today seems a decent way into the season without our first high profile Cheltenham ending injury. Didn't say anything through fear of tempting fate, appears just thinking it was enough. Not too bad for me, lost some free bets (still annoying) and cashed out a mammoth 5 quid in multiples.
Agree with Charlie this far out so much easier to accept, last couple of weeks before this year's Festival were brutal. I actually lost 25% of my total outlay before the Supreme this year but still ended with close to 100% profit by the end of the Festival (closer to 150% if removing the free bets from the total outlay). So just got to roll with the punches as best you can.

Not sure when we knew they were doing cash out again but made some dodgy decisions like a few points on Annamix with Ladbrokes to get an extra couple of points with the price boost...not a good decision

I don't think you should worry about it... being able to react to a horse being injured is more timing and luck than anything isn't it?
USually they're best price to be fair but if it's a big difference I wouldn't go to 365

Ie last year on the blind side looked a cracking bet for the bartlett after he won at chelt. 10 minutes later he was going for the ballymore and you'd have done your dough.https://scooby91horseracingtips.com/

If it were to happen at say midnight then I'd have no chance, but I find the news being released that late highly unlikely.
I'm happy to take a hit on the price, provided it isn't ridiculous, if it means being able to cash out. I'd be a pretty poor place right now if I hadn't, that's for sure.

Yeah, case-by-case, horse-by-horse.
Sometimes the price is worth the normal ante post risk.
I just don't think it's sustainable going forward long-term - but we'll all make the most of it while we can
