Now that I have ended the celebrations, I d like to say to JOLLYGREEN....You are a phenomenon..
Your 1st selected horse Cappa Bleu was paid below 1,5 in running...
I think we can start a lay-back strategy with 100 ticks profits on both sides...What would you say? I layed the horse and made money but if I have backed the horse I would have made money anyway....I am just kidding ofc..shame we could never arrange such a thing.
Thanks again for your outstanding preoff race analysis

Well once again it was close but no cigar! Second last year and second again this year! I made money on my Cappa Bleu bet but the family bets bombed. I didn't trade on Betfair personally but I did have a friend who was trading it on a share basis so I await the result.

We had fun cheering the runners and I am so pleased all riders and horses came home safely!

Thanks to all for the kind words :D

Is this a betfair mistake or my mistake that saw the 2 horses upside down? I thought cappa blue hit 1.43 and teaforthree hit 3.45
???

I laid the field for a bit of fun @2.00 and am pretty sure I laid only the winner and Teaforthree, so I'd suggest your eyes failed you and that screenshot is correct. I'm at work now so can't confirm, but when I get home and take a look I'll repost if I'm wrong.

I can say for sure that theaforthree was the one that went under 1.5. I should have closed my position :lol:

Just check my data... Cappa Bleu lowest price reached 3.95 for 4 seconds and Teaforthree was trading at 1.48 for 1 second down from 1.98 straight back to 1.96.

I know what you mean - I was £71 up on one side of a fence, but by the time Teaforthree got over it I was in the red. The horse seemed to slam the brakes on in midair. :lol:
