Are they greyhounds?! 8.32pm is an odd time for a horse race...normally the timings are rounded to the nearest 5 mins, in this case, 8.30pm.

Well I never...I've never seen a race-card with races at random times like 27 mins past the hour etc. And I worked at Goodwood for 3 years!

 

[Macca1987]

Been a lot lately, stemmed originally from Ireland, Galway, Leapordstown etc, but seems to be more in England now as well

 

[Happy_Martian]

Still going for the budget bets. And Coventry dropped from 29s to 25/1 whilst I was putting in the double

Has Playupskyblues always had that short an odd for his races ? Or is that down to all the overly happy Cov fans throwing their holiday money at him ?

It’s to help with the SIS coverage I think (SIS being the live TV feed that bookies use). They’re trying to avoid ‘picture in picture’ situations where the next race is off before the previous race has concluded and they have to show both. By tweaking times outside of the traditional 5 or 10 min blocks they can add a bit of contingency. When Ireland did it we had to follow suit really as it made some clashes worse when we were out of synch.

It's not a great race and the horse ran in better grades of race last season and the price reflects that . Not sure it's trained on but this won't take a lot of winning .

You know what might have been good, STP..... you telling us it was running before the race.

Might have had a slightly better chance of winning then.

 

[Legia Sky Blue]

It was 5-1 at SP, but just checked and seen that 11-1 was available in the morning. I missed out but hopefully some CCFC fans filled their boots and can now pay for a Sunderland match ticket

That’ll put the odds through the roof

Playupskyblues running again today at Newcastle at 8pm, currently 11/2, might have a fiver on the win

Probably be a dead-heat (draw) in the last furlong (minute)

Drifted to 11/1. Punters must have watched the highlights of the game.

Edit: Who's the rich bugger on here who has just put a wedge on? Gone down to 100/30 while typing this.

It was backed this afternoon. The owner (Gary Allsopp) had one over jumps at Worcester earlier

 

[larry_david]

11-1 into 10-3?? Jeez

 

[skyblueeyesrevisited]

Won at 9-2 yippee

 

[Sky Blue 1987]

Boom, won!

 

[SlowerThanPlatt]

That’s why he’s rich I guess some nice bets landed there

 

[larry_david]

Managed to get on at the end but you know if something is smashed like that there's a reason why

 

[Sky Blue 1987]

I had a fiver ew, should have had more but hey I put it on just after I posted in here lol

 

[Sky Blue 1987]

Wish I would have backed it when it drifted to 11/1 lol

 

[Covcraig@bury]

Got a text ( you know who you are 🫵) saying it’s running . Put £5 on happy days . And he never did . Lol pissing my sides

 

[covboy9]

Keith o Neil a jockey lol

 

[CJ_covblaze]

Boom, won!

He seems successful. I would ask if he can play up front but he’s clearly offside. Actually sign him up, he’ll fit right in

I think SkyBet might have been playing up, it does seem extreme. Plus in the history it doesn't show it drifted that much.

I searched for the horses name, added to my slip, posted on here by the time I went back it was asking me to accept the new prices.

Had a cheeky fiver on it anyway.
