My only use of cash-out has been to correct finger trouble, hitting the wrong key when placing a bet (and not being careful enough to notice until too late). Perfect for that on a bet that allows it.

Yes, I noticed it didn't get a mention yesterday. As you suggest I think borrowing RTV feed.

Did anyone notice that towards the end York coverage on Wednesday, they announced the final 2 races and another meeting would be shown on ITV-X. I don't know if this will be a regular thing or was a one-off. Anyway, I've set up the TV to receive ITV-X.

Working again this morning, but prceded by a splash screen from Cloudflare "Verifying you are human". I tick a box and it proceeds to B365.

I cannot access B365 website when using Firefox. I'm getting a screen from Cloudflare security: "Sorry you are blocked!" The website is OK using MIcrosoft Edge. I had this before about a week or so ago. It went away, now it's back. Google seems to suggest I'm not alone. A live chat with them went as below. Any ideas? (Chat deleted due to formatting issue - 365 basically said they couldn't identify the issue and suggested using other browsers - harry_rag)

Red Zone: Call me an old fogey, but the loud heavy metal guitar they are imposing on top of Scot Hanson's voice is driving us nuts. I'm sure it never used to be this loud and unpleasant.

I stopped using PP when they cut back on offering BOG for most meetings. Lo and behold, I get offered BOG on all UK and Irish racing. No idea how many get it. Now in the habit of using B365 generally. PP offers can be good; eg money back on 2,3,4 - but usually at poorer prices. I often use instead of each-way. I understand overdoing use of offers is a good way to get shut-down.

Really looking forward to the new season. My lad usually comes round and we have a takeaway while watching RedZone. My selections will be guided by NFL.com Power Rankings and, after about 4 weeksa to settle down top picks from the Westgate Hilton Supercontest (published before the games). People have to pay ~ $1K to enter the contest, so there are some smart minds to gudie the way

I'm continuing to work on my back, then Green-up system, The following are my daily pix with B365 prices at ~ 8.30am. In square brackets [ ] are B365 prices at ~10.30. We'll see the results and SPs. BRI 2.40 Cobalt Blue 5/4 [EV] LING 6.20 Topo Chico 11/8 [5/6] 6.50 Cajero 6/4 [11/10] 7.20 Belo Horizonte 8/13 [4/9] 7.50 Sparked 3/1 [11/4] BANG 4.30 The Big Jetaway 13/8 [11/10] 5.00 Al Zaraqaan 6/4 [13/8] 5.30 Slate Lane 4/5 [8/13] 8.05 Police Acadamy 13/8 [13/8]

Lexington Belle wins. Backed at 4/5, SP was 1/3. I can't see what the Betfair SP was as I haven't yet opened a Timeform account. (Why isn't this freely available to all? I have a Betfair account.). If there is enough interest, I'd like to see a daily thread of Lay / Green-up opportunities. Thoughts?

Following on from Siamor's Lay thread and the suggestion one of our regular's about backing certain horses in the morning, then laying before the off, expecting it to be shorter. I've just backed Lexingtom Belle at 4/5, Wolves 2.15. It strikes me as the kind of horse that will shorten. We'll see what the Betfair SP is.

I have cancelled my Dail Mail digital subscription. Sadly it's paid until Jan 24, Is Marcus Townend the new Robin Goodfellow?

It's great to see that Amazon are dropping tennis and it is coming back to Sky (after 8 years).

I think I was incorrect in stating earlier that the back market overround was an exchange profit. On further thought, I don't think it is. It's merely a reflection of available back prices. It has to exist - or you could back every horse in the race and make a profit. (Similar in lay market.)
