    At the risk of being class creep, thanks for these betting reports, Simon. Please keep them coming. I really enjoy reading them.

    I was at Chepstow on Thursday and had a nice chat with James Lovell of Dragon Bet (and a previous subject of yours). As you said at the time, he’s a proper bookie and a top fella as well.

    Going back to the above Tuesday Cheltenham report, can I just revisit the point you raised on fractions in the Ultima. I’ve heard you mention a few times on the Betting People podcasts about fractions and why punters should ask for them when on course. The 100/6 and 100/7 examples are clear but just on the 100/15, is it just a case of finding those 100/? examples that pay a fraction (pardon the pun) more than the standard odds and just asking for them? I’m assuming that bar 100/8 and 100/10 there’s always a slight edge – of varying degrees – in favour of the punter that understands the maths?
