I was at Uttoxeter wednesday where a similar gamble had taken place whereby HEIR TO BE trained by Andy Haynes started 33/1 in the morning and ended up around 13/2 i think. Had been running moderately in sellers and on form stood little chance of winning. Despite the massive reduction in price, he never looked like winning. These gambles don’t always prevail.
On Dalaram, as has been stated he had bits and pieces of form which entitled him to go close. I wouldn’t have backed him due to the aformentioned previous dismal runs that he’d ran. But then again, I wouldn’t have had a bet in such a poor looking race. I can understand the frustrations of people who had had a bet in the race, but as been said surely monitoring the markets and noticing such moves is all part of gambling. You can ignore or join the gamble.
