Snoopdog Posted December 9, 2015 Share Posted December 9, 2015 It's not very fair to moan about something that is both very useful and free, but I'll give it a go. It's that "SkyBet betslip" that has appeared in the bottom right of the screen. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I didn't like it.......so I turned my adblocker on for that site and that stopped it appearing Unfortunately it also stops latest odds on the racecard from loading which is why I'd turned the adblocker off in the first place but I tend use the Post for odds I don't like these sites that have lots of things that are stuck on the page and move up and down as you navigate.........like those little tab things that stick out at the side with Facebook and Twitter links Ghastly Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Snoopdog Posted December 9, 2015 Share Posted December 9, 2015 Yes, I omitted to say it on the SL website ! I think I know exactly what you mean about those tab things on the side. Dreadful.

Xtc12 Posted December 13, 2015 Share Posted December 13, 2015 Was Sam Twiston Davies right to come out and apologise over Hawkhurst today or should he have just got on with it. It cost me a nice treble but thats racing. Paul Nicholls said "You do not need to apologise to anyone, these things happen and you know he is 'quirky' at home. Move on." In my opinion STD could do nothing about it. arsenalfh 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Snoopdog Posted December 14, 2015 Share Posted December 14, 2015 Many times when I see a horse unseat the jockey I often think "AP would have stayed on that.". I agree, STD had no need to apologise. STD is a 100% genuine good-guy. arsenalfh 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Jimmy2shoes Posted January 23, 2016 Share Posted January 23, 2016 (edited) Just about every horse was covered in the last leg of the scoop 6 today apart from the winner Dare Me The form of the 12yr old's last 3 races read........ Fell, Pulled Up & Pulled up again, Sooooo he DNF in his last three runs. What are the odds on that i wonder ? http://www.sportinglife.com/racing/profiles/horse/402547/dare-me Edited January 23, 2016 by Jimmy2shoes Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Jimmy2shoes Posted January 30, 2016 Share Posted January 30, 2016 Wullie Mullins sent over 4 horses today, they went off 5/6 - 5/6 - 11/8 - 7/4 All 4 were beat. Alan King was hardly in the greatest of form but turned up today and had 5 winners. Funny thing Luck Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Trotter Posted January 30, 2016 Share Posted January 30, 2016 I reckon at this time of year Mullins sends over his second or third strings as scouts to test out the British challengers and get an assessment of how good they are and how they race Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Tedthewolf Posted February 5, 2016 Share Posted February 5, 2016 What next!!! Trainer took money for horse that did not exist BY TONY MCFADDEN1:00PM 5 FEB 2016 Australia: Trainer Michael John Day is facing jail for dishonestly obtaining financial advantage by deception after he was paid more than A$25,000 (£12,500) in training fees for a horse that did not exist. Day was paid fees over a six-year period by a client who believed her mare, Jag One, had had a foal and was in training under Day's care. This foal did not exist, however. Day informed his client on January 7, 2009 that a foal - to be named Miriyan - had been born, and he received monthly training fees from October 1, 2012, until January 13, 2015. He passed off another foal as ‘Miriyan' on the occasions that his client came to see her horse. Asked by his client when Miriyan might run, Day claimed that the horse was either suffering from illness or was injured. Custodial sentence When Day then claimed that Miriyan had been sent to a veterinary unit in Kilmore, the client contacted the facility only to find that no horse of that name was there. Suspicious, the client got in touch with New South Wales Harness Racing who conducted an investigation which led to the disqualification of Day from the industry for ten years. Day was arrested on October 20, 2015, and he offered a full admission of his guilt when interviewed. He is to be sentenced on March 16, and has been warned that he faces a custodial sentence. Day's solicitor Tim McGrath, quoted in the Sydney Morning Herald, said: "He realises now that when the vet told him there was no foal that he should have told the client."

If you click on ATR player towards the top right hand corner (one of the main tabs) and then on the right of that page where it says 'race cards' there is an option for TV Guide.

I had Golan Lodge backed at the weekend and I really expected him to go well but he went out like a light even with some decent money. Surely something is up looking at those form figures.
