Pro lockdown protests, bomb scare, plague of locusts.... (number 3 most likely!)

The reason somebody might lay for £150 at 1.01 (if I've understood your post correctly) is that their liability is less than the price of a lottery ticket. I don't know why people buy lottery tickets though. ;)

I've had quite good fun with the Swedish markets this past week. Will definitely consider leaving them in my future mix.

Had a heck of a job finding the results for Goteborg yesterday, mind.

I'm guessing they'll really struggle to get liquidity now, especially in a couple of weeks when the uk picks up

Have run the data for Newcastle, this is being churned out for today. Work in progress and after such a long break it will be interesting to see how it fares.

Does anyone know why there are no silks on the races at Newcastle either on BF or Bet Angel?

(Sorry if this has been asked elsewhere)

Betfair servers must be battling, wouldn't surprise me if they go down today

That's a really good reminder. Hadn't even thought of the increased risk of that.

Thank you.

About two grand matched pre-off on the first at Visby - I fear you may well be correct :?

It's nice to get back into the UK markets :) 1st race was nice, although laggy I hope Betfair doesn't go down.
Hope everyone is well, and goodluck today. :mrgreen:

A solid €0.09 loss on the first! I'll put it down to rustiness and greed :D

First race behaved almost exactly the same as in pre-lockdown days for me. Almost no difference.
