Done Pre Race when BF cocked up the market and cleared the market - good job it was only for £1 as the horse won!

Probably one of the biggest cocks up I have ever seen. Somebody is about to take a massive bath on this race!

I got a bit but not at 1.08 and not for £50k. You have to feel sorry for the person who did that. £50k at 1.08 on a 200/1 shot. :(

I switched over just as this was happening, I thought it was inplay because the book was at 116 or something.

Did it not all get swallowed up almost immediately by bots then? If not it must have been quite a panic for people who saw it to start hammering away at what was left, I dream about things like that!

The question is...
If this had been you would you have 'redded' up before the in-play??!

Whilst I realise we're all trying to make money at each others expense, I actually feel for that punter

That's a complete disaster

The race winner was called Carlton House and this horse Phantom House - crossed communications maybe.
