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

Max £10 for the first race money back offer each day :dejection:
 
That’s annoying. Oh well. Notice they’ve shortened a lot of horses a point or so as well in the supreme
 
The 66/1 with Glenloe in it now I take it is ruined???? Will all be Sp now!

Yeah thought that, crying shame. Have to acknowledge though that expecting 4 horses to turn up is probably only slightly odds on 4 weeks out, so have to factor that into these RABs. That was still good one though

Sucks, but I heard some wild figures for what the offer cost them last year. Always thought it makes sense cos it's a way of keeping the money in your ecosystem, but obviously the hit was too big
 
Sky have effectively removed their free bet offers (other than the weekly fivers) in the past year, says something when they'd rather give you money back cash than a free bet.
I used to nick free bets wherever I saw them with Sky to build a decent Cheltenham portfolio, there were plenty of £50 free bet offers going back 12-18 months which became very useful.

My only other account is betway, they throw out 3/4 free bets a weeks each to a max £200, and the runner up on all TV races (plus selected weekday meetings) you can end up with a serious free bet balance...
 
How can you tell / where does it say what the maximum bet is?
 
Annoying how they slash the odds at the same time but to be expected.

Definitely waiting until closer the time to use mine.

Click on the Supreme market under "future races" & it comes up at the top of the market under "conditions". Says max refund £10/Euros & applies to first bet on race only.
 
Can understand this to be honest but still disappointing for us punters. Need to tap a few mates up now:)

Doesn't say it for me ... but does have a message about being excluded?
 
Is this offer for the supreme Novice race only? Can’t see the offer above the first races on the others days? And the advert seemed to only suggest the first race of the festival :(
 
Asterion Forlonge is 40/1 to win any race in 2020 and 2021

It's in the National Hunt doubles section.

One for a free bet imo

Free bets come Monday Kev, you’ll get your fiver at 14s after the forum has climbed in....

I requested that one at the start of the month. Thought 40/1 was quite reasonable, Will Hill only offered 33/1.

Haha, I don't get the free bets at all anymore.

I'll have 1 point on it though, as I've not really committed in the Supreme yet
