It's also 16.5/1 for the same treble with Betfair.... and there is no point backing it "any race" as they'd be in the same race...

Sadly not everyone has a choice of bookmakers Kev, missing value and getting on where I can has been the approach for a number of years now....
 
Yeah, I'm restricted with Sky and Betfair now.... although I would have options to get on still, just quite a bit of effort needed!


Still, worth highlighting the better prices for the rest of the forum :)

Definitely.
A friend said the other day that having been banned on Betfair Sportsbook a few years ago he inadvertently logged in recently and was allowed to bet, didn't work for me but looks like they review (selected) banned accounts so there's hope...

I've been hitting the Altior 2019 Champion Chase/King George double in their specials.
Was 8/1 and pressed at 7/1 last night.
Plenty of free bet incentives from Sky over Christmas/New Year, latest is in the Man City/Liverpool game tonight, bet £50 and you get a free £25 bet and if your bet is a 'request a bet' you get an extra fiver, so £30 in free bets available.

Tbh I think thats where I am going to invest all of my free bets with Skybet (whilst it holds at 7)
 
Min (RC), Penhill (SH) & Willie Mullins to train winner of Mares Novice @ 180/1 is great. Did someone on here request that?

Just stuck a tenner on. I like that a lot!
 
As an aside on skybet - they decreased their first race offer last year from £25 to £20. Reckon that will hold firm again, or they'll decrease it #idlespeculation

Doing the maths, that looks a fair price.

If it's there next time I get some free bets I might back it :encouragement:

They've been £20 ever since on the first race special (for the majority), so I'd expect the same.
