Are you manually trading the markets this week Peter?

I saw you were trading manually last Saturday.

Finding the markets okay for this time of the year so far. Still a good few hours to go and the Group action about to kick off at Eagle Farm.

Shame Sky Sports Racing will be missing it and showing the pointless Hong Kong pictures from 0545 :(

You can tell there are a lot of bots in the markets. Whenever the market suspends most back bets near the money get pulled.

You can see them also in the matched amounts against your orders. Find them quite annoying tbh.

You'd have to say the percentage of backers to traders in the Aus markets is bigger than in the UK though

Yes by a long way. I would guess it is almost the opposite to the UK.

I really like the syndicate ownership you see in Oz. That was great scenes after they won that Group 1 at Eagle Farm. You never see scenes like that in the UK, the Black Rock syndicate in Ireland is the only thing we see like it.

Holding the groom up in the air on the owners shoulders - brilliant. In the UK we had the groom being pulled out of the TV pictures after the Derby - chalk and cheese, I know which I prefer to see.

I'm getting flipping sick of being told by Sky radio to call gambler's help!!

I thought it was just for people with problems!
