Thanks, it's quite cold and windy where I am, at 34,000 feet! I think I'll stay on the ground today. :)

It's going to be an interesting meeting this year. Hopefully, the extra races will make a positive difference. But so many open questions going into the meeting is going to add some extra interest.

Liquidity will be well down imo, especially with the extra race but it's a nice change from the day to day stuff

Usually, there is less interest when the Euro's are on, but they are not on this year. But no drunk rich people either!

Exactly and I read Betdaq was dead the other day because the on course bookies weren't in attendance, can imagine that flows through to BF too.

Anyway, I imagine every trader in the land wants Frankie to win the first :mrgreen:

Especially when they make the 1st race a handicap

I'd say that was about right, it was a competitive handicap and not a feature.
