My SkyBet account has been suspended because I couldn't be bothered with the KYC check, so I can no longer log into Sporting Life to watch races. I see the favourite unseated in a NH flat race, presumably just before the line.
I often wonder if anyone actually makes money backing 1.01 winners or if they only make money until their first loser!
Today's Horse Racing
The leader was well clear and looked home for all money, I think £36,000 was matched at 1.01. The horse then saw where it had come out onto the track and veered off to its right depositing the jockey on the ground in the process, this left another horse clear but then from back in third place came the original favourite to pip the other horse and win the race having looked earlier well beaten and from memory £118 was matched at 1000.0 on the winner.

It's worth just doing for the replay access and the free Super6 footy comp for £250,000! Sod ever placing a bet with them....Derek27 wrote: ↑Sun Oct 21, 2018 6:04 pmMy SkyBet account has been suspended because I couldn't be bothered with the KYC check, so I can no longer log into Sporting Life to watch races.

I would be if I laid it for £1000!
His ROI after 154 bet requests is -4% so he needed that.
I should just add that the 'punters' have the luxury of 15 minutes to decide on accepting a bet. A time will come when I unlock a bet and the Betfair graph will go up a mountain - I can just sit there and watch while I think about laying the bet. All the 'pro' can do is cancel the bets that haven't been unlocked, and hope that I don't accept the one allocated to me.

i just looked at Sunday and Monday's afternoon cards:
Sunday - 12:20 start - 16:35 finish
Monday - 12:35 start - 16:15 finish (one card finishes at 15:50
)Winter is upon us and getting out of picking the kids up is getting harder!
I always have mixed feeling about the early starts in Winter
On one hand, its good to get started earlier in the day (and then finish early) rather than trying to fill the gap till 2pm as you sometimes need to in summer months
On the other hand, sometimes it means there is not always time to get my morning stuff done and get fully setup (esp on busy days like a Friday and Saturday), also it forces you into having lunch either earlier in the morning or later in the afternoon
