Really enjoying Doncaster and Newbury.

Those colours must have some novelty reason, they weren't on the racecard.

getting a much better handle on volatility these days & how it affects price movement, take that Bangor 16:00 market, the one with the joint favourites, there would’ve been a time where I would’ve jumped in on one or t’other just on a few ticks movement.. sometimes I think back to how I used to get involved and it makes me cringe the risk I would’ve took on either joint favourite 🤔, anyway it’s the Boat Race in just over an hour.. may present an interesting graph Euler?

at least in 4 races I saw big lays sitting there without being matched or partially matched. Every runner that had big lay in lost. Including a few favs where the lays had been matched. So the big layer must have been a drunken trainer :)

I'm all questions today...why did Withernsea run in those colours?
I'm not sure having a target on your back is going to help.
Think they're relaxing the rules on designs of silks to attract new owners and bring more money into the sport , nine new silks already registered in new trial . Used to only allow solid colours and certain geometric designs .. colours below already registered !!

It's great to be back on the flat.
Don't know if anyone has the stats but the NH racing didn't seem to be quite so bad for unpleasant horse falls and deaths this year.
Click on the link below .. then the Equine Health and welfare link. There are some interesting stats .. ranging from number of races with odds on or even money favs , to % of horses winning from 1or 2 lb above the rating band in handicaps and much more

21:25 Tampa Bay Downs when in play 8 minutes early!

I'd love to know what actually triggers these events. Is it a case of some idiot pressing the wrong button?

Thanks, they're going to look great reproduced in a 16x16 pixel box. I might need to get some new glasses.
