Wednesday's Lingfield card is looking awful:

2 runners
3 runners
2 runners
5 runners
2 runners
3 runners

17 runners for the entire 6 race card and that is before withdrawals :shock:
Wednesday's Fontwell prior to further withdrawals:

5 runners
5 runners
6 runners
2 runners
4 runners
5 runners

27 runners for the entire 6 race card and that is before withdrawals :shock:

Thursday's Southwell prior to further withdrawals:

3 runners
3 runners
3 runners
4 runners
5 runners
2 runners

20 runners for the entire 6 race card and that is before withdrawals :shock:

Think I will be taking Wednesday off with such shocking fields, busy week next week so as good a day as any to have off

Funny to see Scott Dixon so desperate for a win - 2 runners at Lingfield (doesn't usually have any runners there) and has got 6 of the 20 running at Southwell.

Perhaps wants to get his percentages up :lol:

Fakenham - indefinite delay due to a race goer being seriously ill and possible air ambulance needed.
Remarkable to see this again after racing was delayed at Dundalk on Friday.
Did you see my reply to your post about why it was delayed, sadly they lost their life. Hopefully it isn't so serious today.
A much more happier outcome this time around. Sounds like he was very lucky to be where he was when he was or it would have been much worse:

Never seen anything like it with Lingfield tomorrow, don't suppose there is a record for minimum number or horses at a meeting??

They should just put them all together and have one race and call it a day! (no good for traders though!)

So I'm not missing much. :lol:

Don't know why I never thought of it but I should have frozen my Betfair points for the last couple of weeks.

Could the reduced field sizes be in any way related to recent ARC boycotts !!!

Don't think so, I think they are targeting runners for the Cheltenham Grand Gold Cup National Sprint.

The week before Cheltenham is generally quieter so in that sense from a trading perspective it's good timing.

For me this week I'll be skipping racing until the weekend and will be spending afternoons looking data ahead of Cheltenham then concentrating on the Indian Wells Tennis (biggest tourney of the year bar the Aus open so far) which begins around 6-7pm each day so all in all everything's a pretty good fit for me this week

Has anyone noticed tomorrows 1.25 at Gowran Park is missing in Guardian?
Quite a big field so they cant all have withdrawn.
Am I missing something?

They must have gave it a new market ID, just refresh the markets in the main market selection window and it'll load

Thanks Dallas.
I've not seen that kind of issue before but the refresh worked and pulled it in via quick picks
Must be a new market as you say as only £4 matched in the entiire market.

Disappointing that non of the channels are showing the Meydan card live.
