The spoofer's back at Wolley - he's actually making the market predictable.

i wonder if anyone can shed any light on this for me i was using the bookmaking tab on the 20:15 6f at chem and had a very strange result i greened up at £5.10 on betangel then noticed that i had in fact lost £25 i checked the bets on betfair and none of the odds matched with the odds shown in the betangel log by some margin, i checked the other races and they all matched with betfair except this race, any ideas anyone?

cheers

I would guess it's a result of Temeraire being withdrawn, which would result in a reduction factor of 25.8% being applied.

What was the average price that you laid it at?

One of the shortest bsps ever to lose.

From The Racng Post ...

Tree Of Liberty on Thursday equalled the unenviable record for the shortest-priced loser in British jump racing history when beaten at odds of 1-20 at Ludlow.

The Kerry Lee-trained chaser was unable to justify his prohibitive odds when going down to 20-1 chance Cap'N in a three-runner 2m novice contest.

The only other 1-20 jumping loser was the great Jerry M over fences at Newbury in 1909, when he fell in a two-horse race and was remounted to complete the course. He won the Grand National in 1912.

In defeat Tree Of Liberty became the shortest-priced loser of any race in Britain since Triple Dip on the all-weather at Lingfield in 2015, joining a band of nine others beaten 1-20 shots.

The record for the shortest-priced loser in British racing history is held by Royal Forest, a 1-25 shot who was second at Ascot in September 1948.

thanks for the replies i hadnt realised that a horse had been pulled, the betfair average odds were 3.32 and the average odds on betangel work out at 4.16

There can only be one average price - they should agree.

You need to be careful when bookmaking/dutching markets where the prices have changed considerably since your bets have been matched, as non-runners and reduction factors can easily screw-up a green book.

Thanks for the info Derek that must have been what happened as that was the only race where Betangel and Betfair didnt match, i suppose theres nothing i can do about that going forward as we have no control over it, it is a worry though if i was using bigger stakes it could have been a lot more!

A horse I think has been a non-trier, nice looking plan here today. 7.15 Elite Shadow. 22s. Crazy price.

I would argue his true chances at least 10% don't understand the 22.00 price.

First OR was 70. IMO moves like an 80 rated horse, Although the entire field is lightly raced he has an opening OR of a horse with ability. I am pretty certain he hasn't been trying at all yet.
