Weather is perfect, everybody is in a good mood. Will the market also be in a good mood!

Does anyone have any rough, ballpark stats on what the fill rate per second is on the favourites in the 10 and 5 mins before the off? thanks

Why do you get higher odds on the favourite each way than on the winner market? Is that normal. Im looking at Douvan in particular 25 mins before the off.

steven1976 · Tue Mar 10, 2015 1:05 pm

Maybe im looking at different to each way market as there is only 8K matched which seems low.

Steady start in the first - didn't really want to push it being the first but there were some good opportunities I didn't really take advantage of due to that.

Good result Andy was hoping you would be on the markets this week.

I lost £50 on the first, just a bit overexposed. My usual trick on the first!

Planning on being on for each day - would be watching the racing anyway so may as well have a play on Betdaq.

You could see what I assume were on course late bets hit Betdaq. I don't like the new starts now though, made worse by the camera angle being so focused on the field as I find it hard to know how much longer until the off. Probably cost me a fair bit as I don't want to risk being left with an open position so probably missed a good 30-60 seconds of key trading time.

Perhaps if trading day in day out I would have a better idea of the starts.

Great result in the first for the markets - punters will be keen to play up the winnings that will be burning a hole in their pockets!

Would object to Betdaq using that image?

Fine by me, good of you to ask first though.

Lovely trade there Andy

Betfair is horrible so far, Much nicer on Betdaq.

Bookie bashing - going to be some interesting markets with the 2 results so far.

If Faugheen wins as well - get selling the bookmakers shares

Betdaq is extremely tradeable.

Sod this trading lark, lets just back the favourite.

My son suggested opening a PaddyPower account today to recoup the free bets..
Backed on PP laid off on Betfair...cost me about a fiver (£5.10) and currently got two free £50 bets (think it goes to a maximum of 5 x £50 bets)
Worth a look of you dont have an account
