General Chat

I try to do my best for the forum. I don’t post my opinion, but facts from owners or trainers. I’ve done my best, but I’m not sure that I can do any more.
good luck

I'm a bit confused as to whats triggered this, and you post on the general.

Perhaps I'm missing something, but I've gone back through your posts, and you do post your opinion, and I can't see anywhere you've posted facts from owners or trainers?

I'm not sure what the problem is, but how do we move past it?

Something has upset you, I can't see what it is though.
 
Anyone know if RP will be doing their WM stable tour next week?

….was only thinking in the last hour that the pre-Festival stable tours will be out at some point this month. Must look back at last years thread.
 
Have just gone to sort a parking pass for our coach trip on the Wednesday to see that Cheltenham now charge us £75 for the pleasure..(has always been free) ok it may only be just over a quid each but they really are trying to squeeze every last penny from us..
the festival is quickly getting above budget for the standard WC guy
 
Pile of blue for ballyburn Supreme

Pile of blue for mystical power and Slade steel in the ballymore

There is, but I'm not sure what the lag is on Oddschecker for the coloured squares. The first 7 in the betting for the BANC are all blue which I presume is still in relation to GCW being OFTS some 4 days ago.

Is this not just Oddschecker not updating from the past week or so, only a couple have actually adjusted

Yes correct: https://www.fatjockey.com/forum/fat...8616-2024-novice-hurdlers?p=451700#post451700

Received this message from Oddschecker on Friday, still not fixed:

"Thank you once again for your response and clarification. Big apologies for the confusion, we understand there is an issue and we will investigate. This added to our developers agenda and they are going to change that logic in future."​

For Ballyburn only Coral (5/4 into evens) and SkyBet (Evens into 10/11) have changed since yesterday.

Nothing has moved on Mystical Power. For Slade Steel, Betfair have gone from 9/2 to 4/1, that's it.
 
Exchange tightened up also for supreme, as low as it's been 2.3 to lay.
Whatever has been said has been given a slant/interpreted a certain way IMO.

For reference, definitely a slight move there.
 
Noticeable move for Embassy Gardens - NHC on BFX. Back to pre-GCW prices now after being out to somewhere between 5 and 6 with the worry that he might defect to the BANC.
 
Is this another case of the bookies changing prices with information from the stable open day before its available to the public?
