I realise my eyesight is failing but I can't seem to find any fields let alone odds for this weekends Hong Kong JC meeting.  

I guess it will be up before I post this topic.

That's odd. I can't see it either.

Still nothing.

Has there been an upgrade to app?  I notice an INTL option box which i hadn't seen before.  Tick it and you get a plethora of race meetings from some obscure places.  Many are abandoned probably because no one bets on them.

The TAB doesn't have fields up because the Australian bookies don't have theirs up.

The TAB does nothing before others do it. I'm sure the likes of Sportsbet will get the fields up today, and our useless lot will just copy and paste.

Yes they still bet on HK…results there from Weds night.

No fixed odds on HK racing hence you won’t find any of that…they put the fields up on a Saturday normally once the HK scratchings are confirmed the day before racing with how the ballots are over there. They’ll be up later today

The Race Card was confirmed yesterday with some races having two ballots.  How is that any different to some meetings in NZ?  That said is it related to the World Pool constraints?

Thursday fields are declared…Saturday morning hong kong time the scratchings (day before races)

betting opens hk time midday.

because if you pay close attention, they have two ballots per race and say if #1 is scratched, the first ballot then becomes numeber 1, with the same barrier draw as the scratched runner

Thanks for that excellent explanation.  I would have thought though the two Grp 1's that don't have ballots and which are in the World Pool would have had odds up.

betting on all races in hk only starts midday the day before the meeting. Tote, no fixed odds. I have an account in hk from a previous life, so know how it goes from betting there for many years.

group 1 or no group 1, its always the same

Does this somehow stop overseas operators offering fixed odds?

Well if you are a commingling partner with them, eg tab nz, tab aus etc they are hardly going to allow you to bet fixed odds, would be a breach of contract

Only if you didn't give them a cut?

Well its commingling into the HK pools.

hk dont do fixed odds - its tote only. Except for the jockeys challenge and trainers challenge.

case and point there is a scratching in race 5 so a runner has now been promoted into that horsea saddle cloth/barrier and betting is now open in hk

Sure, but Australian bookmakers offer fixed odds for all Hong Kong races.

Yep…many do…but tab.com.au do not, as they are partnered with hkjc commingling

So, is the TabNZ tote pool commingled with the HKJC one?
