  1. One of my races was Voided today half way through ....... I wasn't watching and there was no replay on the 'Life' site so not sure what happened .......... from the comments appears to have been a serious incident at the 2nd hurdle and they couldn't clear the track before the horses came round again

    It means I ended up with two singles on the same race and my best horse finished 2nd

    Thanks, and Coral gives me the option of Double (4 Bets), so I can carry out the bet.

    However with horses A&B in one race and C&D in another what are the four Double bets?

    A&B, C&D, A&C and B&D? What about A&C and B&C?

    Just curious to know. Probably an obvious answer That I'm not seeing.

    Thanks, anyhow.

    race 1 - A and B

    race 2 - C and D

    the 4 doubles are 

    AC, AD, BC, BD

    you can't have AB or CD as a double becaiuse the two horses are in the same race !

    Hi, so how are you placing the 4 x £5 bets please?

    Thanks

     

    Well I'm not .............. because I wouldn't bet 20 quid on one race !

    I sometimes do this bet for smaller stakes .... obviously yoiu just select two horses in one race and two horses in another one and the bet options will come up and put your stake in and select 4 doubles ....... 

    If the site doesn't offer 4 doubles as an option just do each double separately

    is that what you mean ?

    Hi Trotter,no worries mate and again well done.Just wondered as 4 horses in crossed doubles is 12 bets and as it happened a favourite of my grandads i.e crossed stakes.I do both now and again but a lot of punters do not seem to realise your 2 x 2 double i.e 2 selections in 2 races is possible to do and as your bet today proved can be lucrative.Someting I do if I fancy one in two races but fear another.

    Thanks for your reply and continued success.

    I think your probably right in that the bet I do is not a cross double

    I've googled 'cross double' and it looks a bit too complicated for me .............. ?

    I'll just call them doubles if i remember !

    To be honest in my 30 odd years of betting I've never understand these sort of bets where it's up and down and round and about and 'if this, then that'

    I'm a 'try and find a winner and back it' kind of chap .........

    If I am right during the day I think it was half past the hour the results where given then every hour.

    On the radio they would give the latest results on the sports bulletins ,........ and then a 15 minute round up with all the day's results at 6.45

    I've just checked a random day in 1985 ....... Tuesday 18th June on the Radio Times Listings Archive and it seems that Medium Wave opted out of the John Dunn Show on Radio 2 at 6.45 for 'Sport and Classified Results'

    Also noticed on that day they had commentary on the Royal Ascot Races during the Gloria Hunniford Show !

    This appears to be my last post in the thread, back in August ...... I'll assume that one lost so my Bank is now 1541.24

    Just thinking I might start again on this as the Jumps are underway and I fancy having a crack at the Jumps handicaps over the winter, something I've neglected for a few years
