Royal Ascot 2021

Inspection 12:30

Be a shame if they abandon it. The storm seems to be travelling directly north.

Derek give ya neighbor a knock.....

Have a feeling liquidity is going to be terrible as a result

[Grinderman]

Can't see the problem. Like they say in Ireland, if you can see the horses' ears it's soft. If you can't, it's heavy.

Or, the going was described as choppy.

BF market says more chance it won't go ahead today

[Euler]

Market suspended, lets see. The course looks raceable to an extent, but loads of runners pulled.

[Euler]

I think they will fudge it and run some races tomorrow.

Last I saw you could of backed 'Going Ahead' around 2.40-2.50 before it was suspended ahead of the inspection

....well worth a look in case you havent watched this yet.

Very relevent with all thats going on

[Naffman]

If that's the big race of the day then jesus christ we're in for a shocker

Its interesting you got prices shooting off for some of the mid price runners at exactly 2 minutes, not 2:20 or 1:40 but every race exactly 2 minutes out. Was the same at Cheltenham, whats the most likely reason for that?

[Euler]

It looks like somebody hedging, most likely Betfair I guess.

I'm out of my positions by then and make a call on what to do after that. People avoided that could be the cause of lower liquidity.

Trickiest Ascot I think I've ever traded, for one reason or another.

Been a hard slog this week!
