Sky News debating banning horse racing this morning. Won't be long before an idiot Labour MP gets on board and starts calling for a ban and banging another nail in the rural coffin of the UK

Some foreign women speaking broken English talking against British Horse Racing on Sky. This country in a nutshell foreigners move here then attack our heritage, wants to pack her bags and go back to where she comes from.Michael5482 wrote: ↑Wed Nov 20, 2024 8:31 amSky News debating banning horse racing this morning.

Don't mind the Aussie from British Horse Racing, over here embracing and working with our heritage.

What she doesn't seem to understand that if she banned horse racing maybe 200 odd horses would not have died (her figures) but some 7,500 GB registered horses who have raced in the last 365 days would probably never have had a life at all!
Just think, all those cheap horse meat joints we could sell to France though if racing was banned, their farmers would be over here straight away spraying manure on the houses of parliament.firlandsfarm wrote: ↑Wed Nov 20, 2024 9:57 amWhat she doesn't seem to understand that if she banned horse racing maybe 200 odd horses would not have died (her figures) but some 7,500 GB registered horses who have raced in the last 365 days would probably never have had a life at all!
Seriously though, there have been many attempts to stop horse racing, by radical groups and their allied MP's , but the industry is too big for any government to allow banning (they like the tax revenues). Jump racing may perish eventually, but horseracing on the flat will not be banned.
Horse racing contributes around 4 billion to the British Economy per annum.

Already sick of the tedious national hunt season. Small fields, short priced favs, long winning distances, dreary 3 mile slogs in heavy going.
4 months still to go. Good time to book a sunny holiday somewhere perhaps...

Hi, Your maybe looking at this from a negative point. Look at it as an opportunity to trade inplay. So much better than all weather or flats as the market moves a lot slower.

Love jumps season for in-play. Liquidity seems to have been decent the last 2 weeks also.
Just fired up BA and I usually have it set up with four ladders with a BF chart at the bottom of each ladder and the advanced chart to the side. Today for some reason I can only have a maximum of three ladders with no option to show a chart at the bottom. If I try and change anything in the settings nothing happens ie I'm not bale to add more ladders, chart etc.
Anyone else had this issue?
TIA

It sounds like you haven't selection your existing layouts when you log in.Kermy74 wrote: ↑Fri Nov 22, 2024 12:12 pmJust fired up BA and I usually have it set up with four ladders with a BF chart at the bottom of each ladder and the advanced chart to the side.

I had my layouts selected like i usually do but still couldn't do any changes to any of the layouts I had saved or the pre loaded ones. Did a fresh install and everything is working as normal.Euler wrote: ↑Fri Nov 22, 2024 12:27 pmIt sounds like you haven't selection your existing layouts when you log in.Kermy74 wrote: ↑Fri Nov 22, 2024 12:12 pmJust fired up BA and I usually have it set up with four ladders with a BF chart at the bottom of each ladder and the advanced chart to the side.
