Interesting two runner races to trade. Would be interested to see how people get on in these! Bit of a farce from a racing perspective.

Let's just hope one of them doesn't go into the stalls!

They are in no rush at Salisbury today are they - by the time we get to these races they will be over 10mins late at this rate!

I think these are likely to be dominated by bots, any change on one runner will be relected immediately by the other, so unless you get smooth trending markets I would have thought trading these would be pretty tough. Maybe one to just watch and learn how bots work when markets are so closely interconnected

Surely they can't start late this time!

Think I will go for Sligo instead - no point trying to compete with the bots and the people with the big banks who can move the market at will.

This is a perfect example of how the Levy Board have absolutely no understanding of how exchanges work

On the face of it, £1.1M matched looks impressive.

However, Peter alone was responsible for 3% of it!

Take traders out of the equation and the real figure punted will be a fraction of that

Well that last one was totally random and I couldn't get hold of it. So I only made £30 but.......

I put through £53k. I noted the volume at the time I started, it was £175k and £975k when I finished. So I was 6.6% of that market!
