What do you find most annoying?

[fintron]

The Sport of Kings can be very annoying at times. What annoys you the most about it? For me it is

• Following a horse several times in defeat and seeing it win the moment you stop backing
• Backing a horse at huge odds ante-post, letting the bet run, only to see it withdraw before the race
• Seeing your horse drift massively over the course of the day, giving you a sinking feeling before it has even left the gates

Another one that bugs me is when you are in a rush and want to rush up a bet but either your internet crashes, or someone turns up on your doorstep the minute you were about to dash out to a shop!

Re: What do you find most annoying

• The 48hr declaration system which leads to tons of Non Runners every day.
• Very minor in the scale of things but the Sattelite channels annoy me. Racing UK sometimes dont put the evening racing on the Sky Planner so you cant record it properly (maybe Sky's fault tbh). ATR split their schedule on the planner with 'The Winning Post' and that can cock things up too (also maybe Skys fault).
• Apologies to the Irish members but it annoys me no end when i'm trying to watch a race at say Stratford and they split the screens to show a race at Listowel, making both races unwatchable!
• Short SP's, its now imperative to take a price nowadays on every race, the returned SP's are a joke.
