How odd. Assistant tweets a phot of him looking great on the gallops this morning. Nicholls tweets to say they are going chasing. Someone tweets him saying they are looking forward to seeing SAF too, to which he responds "OFS". Then deletes the whole thing. Weird.

I'm running with some blind hope he's misread the tweet and is responding regarding a different horse :cat:

See my edit ... I reckon it's Ivald he meant.

I'm all over this theory!

Betfair not really interested in him being out for the season, or I'd chance another play.

365 have actually taken him out of the BANC market.

Stay Away Fay is fine - believe Exar Essay could be bang on the money

Paul Nicholls on Twitter now confirms Stay Away Fay definitely NOT injured.

Complete mess up with their social media comms by the look of it.

Cashed a few multi’s out as the tweet came from his official Twitter account . What a bell end

Absolutely, I would think he got very "red faced" about it, and so did his owners if they saw it, or were told about it.

Don’t suppose anyone bets on the cycling?
just think juan ayuso is a little overlooked and overpriced at 12/1 for the outright.

There's a cycling thread in the sports section that a couple of people post on and I read with no understanding what anyone is taking about. If you've not noticed it that is. You'll probably get a view in there.

I've no understanding by the way. Not them :worked_till_5am:

Are you putting them back on? I know SAF is largely the same price but it's a nightmare if the others have shortened.

Luckily I was a fraction late from cashing out on this occasion but was kicking myself for a short while.

I was moaning my life changer lucky had gone, like that was the only reason i wasn't going to become a near millionaire ! :welcoming:

 

[Ice]

I was doing the exact same, and cursing my luck for having the first high profile NR of the season. :glee:

We're still in the game ! :welcoming:

Yeah I’ve put them back on. All worth less now than before with horses shortening but I don’t think I’d ever get over it if the Yankee won and I had nothing on. Annoying but had to make a quick decision with info coming from nicholls’ own Twitter account I thought it was the right thing to do at the time.

As there's a lot of talk about bookies and pay outs, this just popped up on my twitter feed. One of the worst I've ever seen https://twitter.com/RyanHarbinson_/status/1698736520293650463?t=jV6paS765LVYGnmYihM-uQ&s=19

That's fucking brilliant. :highly_amused:
If that's a human typing out those responses then it's another nail in my increasingly desperate opinion on mankind (or fucking womankind )
I'm not sure on the context of the bet and when it was placed and how palpable the odds offered were etc.
But I reckon He'll get paid out in the end I'm sure, but the hassle and pain to get it should be an embarrassment to the bookie.

 

[Magpie]

That’s terrible, though the incompetence and lack of knowledge of staff does not surprise me. I went into a local bookie years and years back for a price on Tiger Woods, and she asked me if that was the course. I’m not joking either.

Bits of blue for Tullyhill - Supreme today. Into 10’s in a lot of places. ?100 on the exchange at 14s too. A reasonable wager at this point.

 

[Atlantic Viking]

That one got thrown in too :biggrin-new:
Some decent peace of mind from On The Fringe in a recent post, good work fella!
As well as the main question, I asked for clarification on the date the T&C's were changed and also if the 50k limit is per bet or per day (it reads like per bet on the sheet they sent me, but its ambiguous enough), so will see what I get back.

Not that it appears to matter anymore, but this is the response I recieved by e-mail this afternoon:

"I am contacting you in regards to your Max Payout query.

We referred your bet on to our Traders to review and they have confirmed that the max payout was changed back on the 25th of November 2022 with your oldest open bet being placed on the --rd of --- this year all the bets would of been placed under the changed rule and therefore the max of ?50,000 would stand for these bets."​
