Well done Matt on Nick Rockett  :nana: I got half my money back on Iroko and Grangeclare West

Out of curiosity what did Iroko pay? I just don't bother with such short price horses but a wins a win.

The great offers really are dried up now year on year. I staked £50 as well with roughly the same spread as you, we have a few crossovers so we will see what comes of it and hopefully we both do well :ptu:

Edit: Looks like Malina Girl pulled out, so I've now bet E/W on Grangeclare West @ 33/1 as well

DENTAL PLAN

LISA NEEDS BRACES



With bet365 out of the picture for me I headed over to the irish bookie, alas Paddy was only offering places for the first 5, so off to Sky I went, first 6, better.

Prices quite different to the above, seems nowhere is offering best odds guaranteed anymore which is rubbish :(

£5 E/W

Beauport 25/1
Grangeclare West 33/1

£3.50 E/W

Nick Rockett 25/1
Duffle Coat 50/1
Mr Vango 33/1

£2.50 E/W

Minella Cocooner 20/1
Coko Beach 66/1

---

Total staked £51

If you're having trouble posting and you're logged already but it keeps asking you to login again, this is is because the Posting form is a bit broken, there is a http/https redirection happening in the form submittal.

I haven't fixed the root cause yet as I haven't found where the rogue hardcoded protocol is coming from but you can fix this temporarily by right clicking on the form title where it says Post reply, choosing Inspect, then using the element Inspector identify in the HTML where it says e.g:
<form action="http://www.tekforums.net/general-discussion/?action=post2;start=45">

Change the protocol in the action from http to https and you will be able to post.

YA USED ME SKINNER!


Even if bet365 do their old mega deal I'm not eligible anyway, my max bet there is now pence ::)

I'll check the popular irish bookmaker nearer the time, no doubt I'll use the same format as last year.
