To put it another way, it would have had to have run in the vicinity of a track record time to get anywhere near them, even with a very slowly run race, and this is a very average pacer turned trotter who will never sniff breaking 2:00 in its racing life. The entire field would have to fall over for it to have a chance. And you could lay it at $10.... Closest thing you'll ever see to free money!

Fair enough, just noticed it's a trotting race and they seem to throw up all sorts of weird prices at the off. I previously assumed it was a typical Betfair late suspension and the "in play" players picking off the "not in play" market.

About everything has gone wrong today apart from the ambulance being called to attend to a patron on track.

Another Terry Bailey special there at Mornington Race 7. :lol: :lol:

Even after the race: 'That was going to win at the 700m mark'...

A few seconds later when the photo comes up: 'I'm very sorry, I took my eyes off it'.

I am sure this will do the rounds.

Anyone know what the LTP was on the winner? Bailey has had a few questionable calls but that's up there with his best!

I'm sensing today will be a very good day, markets feel very good so far.

With a Group 1 feature at Caulfield later this afternoon. :)

Rosehill's trading really well with decently priced favourites but I'm getting through my chips fast.

big stakers in first 2 at Port Macq., quite thin otherwise, best place to spend chips if continues

Forgot Port Mac's NSW, was getting it confused with one of the other Ports. Just did 700 chips at Rosehill and I'm almost out for the week. Great scalping though.

The pound went up on the Aussie dollar this week but I know if they use the exchange rate at the start or end of the week.

counterproductive a lot of the time to be such a big fish in market as a trader, can't reduce your liabilities efficiently if needed,
commission a pot. factor too.
most likely just a punter when you see that sort of stuff. If you can read the activity as legit then you can play around it for some higher strike rate stuff
