Today's Horse Racing
This Chester meeting has to be my favourite of the year, not just for the quality trading opportunities but for the memories it brings… it’s the only race course I have ever been to & been to multiple times. It’s a great day out and evening around town after the racing is fantastic.

There surely has to be an easier way to get horses into stalls.
I still think rather than shoving them in from behind a bloke with a carrot on a stick at the front of the stall would be quicker!

I wanted to look at the Forecast markets yesterday and noticed that some races have a Forecast market, some a Reverse Forecast market and some did not have a market even though they had more than 4 runners. Just wondering how Bf determine if there will be a Forecast market and if so then on what basis.
I don’t know if I’m on the right forum here but I will give it a chance.I’ve read somewhere that the second favorite win’s about 20% of the races, would laying the second favorite be a profitable strategy or would it be to risky,the favorite win’s about 30% would laying that be any better or is it a poor strategy altogether./Jocke

But to give you a quick answer the BSP is very efficient so laying all 2nd fav's (or the fav's 3rd favs, 4th favs etc) over the long term will result in breakeven minus commission paid
You'd need to pick and choose when to lay any runner if you want to profit long term depending if you can spot value or not (ie, is it under priced, or over priced if backing), if you do a quick search there's quite a few threads on this which goes into more detail

If that poor bloke with the flag at Beverley has to stand there much longer he's going to take off

That was a great opportunity to back Ramazan, did anyone else back it once it went in play?
