Request-a-Bets (was 'Sky Bets' thread)

How many rides do we think he'll have? Seems tight enough to me that. Could probably play them in multiples and hope for a better return.

Sire du berlais, one in the kim muir, foxhunter, maybe something NHC like fury road if that goes there

Fair play. Gets himself four rides and you'd be looking at his two winners being under 12s (very roughly)...

Maybe about right is it. SDB won't go off any bigger. And neither would Fury Road.

I'm working on assumption he gets Fred ride in nhc.

Had a little dabble on the 25s anyway - hopefully Dandrew99 can use his charm and get a tempting price for 1+ or 3+ winners...

My charm is working as well with them as it does with the women...

Odin they've added it up, RequestABet > Jockey Specials
1+ is 10/11
2+ is 9/2
3+ is 33/1

Looks like they've taken the 25/1 down for exactly 2 winners?

It wasn't for exactly two winners, the wording is/was "Mr Rob James to ride 2+ winners at Cheltenham festival" this was 25/1 last night when I backed it, unbelievable if it's been cut into 9/2:eek-new:
 
Jesus christ! I was starting to think 25s was a bit short! Looks like I have "Value" now haha

Cheers mate - think I'll be swerving those. Glad I got 2 points on the 25/1 for 2+ yesterday now!
 
Still smashing up the Hendo or Willie to win the Supreme. It's into 1/4 now but covering Mighty Potter still the only feasible danger as things stand.
 
Mullins plus Elliott winners being 12,13 or 14 looks decent at 9/4 I'd say
 
Cracking bet

Is it? It's happened once in ten years. The top 10 in the market are all Irish which makes it look like a great bet, but 9/17 winners have started with an SP at 20/1 or greater, and those are just winners. Given 8/10 of those priced 20/1 or greater are British trained, that looks like a classic red herring special IMO.
