12 ticks one way and 13 ticks the other way? Last 10mins looks pretty stable.

And it taught me that a stop won't necessarily get filled even in a huge market, I only went to put the kettle on. Glad it didn't in the end because it all came back. I suppose it's another example of how experience takes time for the rarer events to be encountered.

Anything to draw the public into the sport is fine by me, let them have their entertainment. I know a few pensioners (daytime tv fans) who only have a bet on Cheltenham because they like the telly show. If it was all worthy it would be dull for all but the officianados.
