It shouldn't surprise anyone that the BHA couldn't get this right.
I'm far from an expert on IT stuff and data centre storage/capacity but I know the BHA were never going to have cutting edge technology here...

I am, and I'm not surprised either. Any site that is used to 100 hits a day is never going to be ready for 10000 hits a second....
 
Staying in Cirencester on Monday & Tuesday night, any recommendations for decent places to get a pint?
 
Does anyone know if there's a way that you can lay off antepost bets on the exchange with their now live prices?

Hollow Games for example, I've backed at triple figures, always planned to lay off once he got declared. Currently can't because they're technically in two separate markets...
 
I am in Tatts on Gold Cup day. Is there a meet up thread? Anyone else going?

It's on the Naiad meet-up thread CHG. The plan is to meet up each day at far left corner of the parade ring steps each day, after the second race, to watch the 3rd race on the parade ring big screen.

Paddy Power as expected gave me a free 2 quid bet for first 3 days. Will stick it on some outsider and forget about it.

Yeah unfortunately I don’t think you will be able to do this

you’d have to deposit unfortunately
 
Cheers all... Did notice one was antepost and the other wasn't after I posted so I guess it makes sense, still annoying though :highly_amused:

Thats more than they have allowed me to stake for the past 6 years, way before Affordability:rapture:

I can't think this through after a few beers but it's the possibility of a NR that means you can't trade between antepost and day of race markets I think...
