They should have written 6/4, imo.

How did they get it written up so quick is my question... very impressive

The clue is in the gap between 'was' and '2.5'.

[weemac]

Yep, they're small velcro patches with one digit on each patch.

Or even 2.5 less 2,5,20,40,50 or 60%

Lucky it wasn't 2.88 - not enough room.

I wonder if they arrange to have the results graphic displayed at the same time the camera focused on the winner.

[weemac]

Probably - the horse was slightly facing the camera until someone off to the side told the lad to turn the horse round a bit so it was side on to the camera.

What's up with Fury road at Navan 13:00
62K traded already at 1.01 and 82K traded at 1.07 and we're 10 min from the off

[Euler]

It would have been an earlier withdrawn runner and the reduction factor applied would change the odds significantly.

[jamesg46]

Reduction Factor 93.49% - I was having the same thoughts... Betfair desplaying a High of 2.5 and the market overview 1.18 this had me scratching my head for a while too.

[Andriy]

Although withdrawal time was about 9.50am this morning, market knew there was a withdrawal late last night just before 9pm; between 9 and 10pm about 80k was matched. Elliott had the 2 runners and it was a shoe-in for either of his horses, so was very high possibility that one would be taken out. Reduction factor was only about 55% though, not the 93.4% which i presume would have been for the place market.

last two races - 4 under 2...(think the last race was 4 under 1.32?)

In the 1.05 Lud, I took position(s) IP that included the winner Overawed. I didn't listen or watch the race as I was setting up the next race. When I watched the race on the Sporting Life replay, nearly every runner, apart from the actual winner looked to have fair chances IP. If I had watched it live and then decided to get involved, I would of made all the wrong choices. As you have said before, it's sometimes pays to take a more contrarian view.

[PeterLe]

Yes been a really good day for this system..(The last race had a 1.02 loser)
I havent checked my own results (this is my wife's system that she runs

[danum]

£25 matched at 1000 on the winner in the 5pm at Chelmsford.... ouch

[Dallas]

Another 1.01 turned over in the 18:00
