Very weak

[Bet Angel]

Racing markets seem very weak this week. Difficult to get decent sums matched quickly. Just an observation.

I did quite well yesterday for a Wednesday, but today for me is profit, loss, profit, loss, etc. going nowhere fast.

Couldn't agree more. Feels to me like the racing markets have been in decline the last couple of years. I'm sure that the volume figures are only being kept up by the amount of wannabe new traders trying to make some money, in the end we spend most of our time taking money off of each other rather thank punters. I hope betfair start to put a bit more effort into pushing the racing side of things again like they used to instead of focusing on other sports like football

Not really much demand though for UK racing outside of the UK and Ire, the rest of the world isn't interested. Whereas UK Football, i.e. Premiership, is in demand worldwide as are the other sports. Also other sports BF don't have to give 10% of GP away from UK customers.

Have found today quite tricky, the market make ups haven't been great. Rest of the weak has been alright though.
