Market Rasen 15:20 - That was entertaining to watch and trade.

Found Mondays markets next to impossible to predict. Shouldn't trade when tired.

I was looking at some stats and it dawned on me that there's over 900 races a month, Now I'm quite a naturally lazy person but to me that sounds like you could swerve a couple of hundered and it wouldn't do too much harm.

It's the curse of self-employment though, not just the freedom to work (at what you enjoy) all the time but not realising that when you're grinding through evenings and weekends everyone else has got their feet up. So wgaf if you have a few afternoons off especially when the fair weather is so unpredictable. It's supposed to be a lifestyle choice as well as making some money so next Monday treat yourself to a day off :)

Absolute golden rule in my opinion. Whatever abilities one has established to prevent succumbing to biases and primal instincts absolutely evaporate when fatigued.

it's too challenging an endeavour to turn up depleted. I'm posting this as much as a reminder to myself. Poor sleep last night, and I didn't trade today so just reinforcing my behaviour.

Double the number of races/month if you do both pre-race and in-play :)

All loading fine for me

Have you checked the 'Restrict Refresh' option on the advanced tab?
Also if you set the refresh rate to 20ms rather than 1second they'll load in the blink on an eye

Me today also got this, just delete all markets and restart BA and then insert them all again.

That works for me.

Cheers :D

Delay at Chepstow but also a lot of confusion about what's happened. Flood, fire ongoing incident.

I think Notre Maison should run well here, it could be a good back to lay It's got a good chance. Maybe not with the mist :lol:

5.30 in to 2.60 not bad, a decent back to lay.

Imagine having a big punt on something in this race then finding out it's going to be a tape-start on a 5f event. Several left at the start with no chance.
