Well it was either one or the other. A bob each way was never going to work. If it is a matter of when the virus gets here not if as they are saying, why ruin the economy with lock downs in the middle of it all. The Swedish method may well be the best approach time will tell. Lock up the oldies and let everyone else continue to operate as per normal would have at least saved my kids and grandkids having to pay for this mess for the next 50 years.
Govts own fault. Should have cut people off from coming back into NZ after a cerain date. Been letting covid back in every day stupid fuckers. No one in or out close the border got to be cruel to be kind should have been the motto.
That doesn't make much sense unless you are losing. If they are letting you on fixed odds and you are winning and reducing their profit they have less to pay out.
Unless you are backing on the tote and therefore increasing turnover!
Exciting racing or a training run? Cmon AllStars I want to see a 10K trifecta in this race. At least put Mark and Natalie on the two worst ones to make it interesting.
If they have got one ridiculously under the odds as you say then there will be one or two that are over so in my opinion if they get the odds wrong it is a good thing. Westerous is taking up approx 20% of that market of 133%.
If Westerous has no chance in that field and you can disregard it then you are in fact betting into a field of 113%.
No winging. No excuses just fill your pockets
Every horse has its place in racing. You need the slow ones as much as you need the fast ones. If the Aveross Spitfires of racing were non existent I would give up punting. In my opinion they give some variety to an otherwise bore fest by A) creating an obstacle to favoured runners if drawn better thereby making it harder for favoured runners to win. B) Adding value to exotic bets if an aveross spitfire does happen to run in the placings. C) creating bigger fields which makes the races more attractive for betting on.
Seems it is lot easier to get on for larger amounts near start time when there is a bit of liquidity in the market. No hope trying to get on at opening for anything more than $100 unless it is a shorty.
Well statistically they were a great chance to finish that way considering they had over half the field in the race so not that surprising based on the math.
I doubt it. They would be laying off on overseas bookmakers rather than the tote anyway. Our tote pools are too small to put even 1000 on without caving the price.
