Very fair. Almost Betfair. Anyone could recommend any institution where i could bring this up?
It's annoying when you think you've got a nice green but then it gets taken away. But what they did seems perfectly reasonable to me. Mr Buff was disqualified for breaking the rules, so anyone Lay'ing Mr Buff (or backing the actual winner) would quite rightly want their payout - and the money has to come from somewhere.

Yep, it happens almost every day on at least one of these markets

Not sure what's happening - I've had a look at the BF site, and the rules are very clear what this market is about - 4 runners, 3 TBP

It only came to my attention when u mentioned it yesterday, i suppose this case there is a chance of 2 non finishers but free money as long as 3 stand at the finish. Cant be a misfiring bot surely as rules are stated and it is actually being advertised as 3 places

Is it not something to do with the chance of falling being priced in?

What happens if only two complete?

I note the example from the screenshot is a novice chase where both the favourites have either fallen or unseated before.

Other 4 runner races at Newcastle with a 3TBP market, one is a hurdle, priced at 305 per cent, the other is a 4 runner chase, which is bang on 300.

BF are not claiming it's an error - I got paid out over £50 yesterday from the 7.30 Dundalk, so the money is there to be matched

But yes, if there is a non-runner then the market will be void, but until that happens there's money to be made on it

Regardless it should never be priced under 300% even with an increasef chance of falling, however the prize money in this situation does help as especially the rag will want to finish

That faller at 1.50 SP at Kempton may set up a theme for the day

Should be rock solid but some large money appear and jumping the prices around. Quite a lot of late money.
