Where are the facts to say someone had 100K @ 8/1 . I also would be led to believe that 800,000/100,000 would more than likely cause a price cut , especially when Powers max payout is 500,000. Dont believe every piece of bullshit story you hear Siddlers…..
Hi Gearoid,<br> Getting on you nerves this thread I think.By what i can tell you loved the horse and had every faith in the bugger. Now I aint going to disagree with you on that cos I lost just a bit more on him than you did as I had no reason to believe he would be beat…..(gutted me !!)<br>This ‘story’ or whatever you wanna call it came from a man who has just come back over from Ireland and his exact words where "Paddy Power took 100,00 Euros on Monday for Isty" Duty rumour now in Ireland is that JP MAY have done it………………….alledgedly.<br>I know your over their mate so see if you can shed any light on it for us and tomorrow when I see him I’ll ask where he saw the bet recorded………
:) :) :)
Sidders, that is honestly the most sneaky example of trying to stir things up a little I have ever seen in my life,
If you honestly believe those rumours about JP then I can only come to the conclusion that you are either very gullible, or very, very stupid
DANIEL……..stop calling me names and read the thread again reference JP…….excuse me for being THICK but I did,nt say I beleived em……………
Personally I dont give a donkey’s rude bits…………..
Every big bet struck is linked to J.P. Who is to say he had 100K on Like-A-Butterfly ? Or does anyone remember he was linked to a £120,000/£80,000 on Behrajan when beaten by Hati Roy even tough he never bets odds on ? The fact is no one had a €100,000 at 8/1 for the simple reason that it exceeds there max payout. Your right this thread and the whole Istabraq thing is getting on my nerves especially the crap about this alleged 8/1. he was also 3/1 not to finish the race.
JP, a multi millionare, acting in such a desperate way, i doubt it very much. I’m sure when he places his bets they are more for fun, not because he needs the winnings.
Anyway, why the hell would any bookmaker lay 8/1 on Istabraq not finnishing the race to the very man that owns the bloody horse??????????????
This 8/1 on Isty not finnishing was no doubt a novelty bet, i dont think for one second that they would have taken a bet of 100k on this.
Sidders you are either a liar or stupid.There is no way on earth that Paddy Power laid that bet.I’m sorry if you don’t like what I say but I would say its fair comment.
Sidders would have us believe that not only did Paddy Power lay the 100,000 at 8/1 but they also held the price.Maybe Kathy and himself should start writing the X-Files.
What an interesting thread. I’ve been looking forward to seeing this since last Tuesday.
I had the pleasure of being at Cheltenham and seeing the (non-event) Champion Hurdle.
I’m particularly interested that Kathy raised the question as (the rumour) was exactly what I had heard from a bookmaker on the course!
What I found the most fascinating was Mr Barry Dennis’ book on the Champion Hurdle. Below are the prices chalked up on Mr Dennis’ board from about 30 minutes before the off to about 2 minutes before……..
9/4 Istabraq
Yes, thats all he priced up on the race until a couple of minutes before the race.
Thats a pretty strong opinion on the race, don’t you think?
Interestingly I believe this is the only time during the festival I saw anything of this nature. You would have loved Mr Dennis’ face after 30 seconds of the race……I couldn’t tell whether this was pure relief or whether this was just embarassment….I am certain it was only relief…..(for legal reasons!)<br> <br>Didn’t see the Morning Line and am unaware of the bismark or whether this is normal practice at one of the largest betting events in the calander…
Would be interested in comments……
Thankyou very much Escorial……….
  I rest my case !!!!!!!!!!!!!:) :)
<br>As for the X-Files Luke !!!!!…….Kathy, you up for it.????;) :biggrin:

Just to throw a spanner in the works:<br>FACT-JP had backed both Landing Light and Valiramix ante-post.
Now that makes for an interesting scenario.
<br>beard
i presume u mean the infamous j p trotter of nelson mandela house peckham
cos im sure the real jp discusses his punting with yer best mate down the pub
Dont have best mates at the pub PR and I do not disclose where my info comes from.<br>FACT- JP backed both Landing Light and Valiramix ante-post.
pppssssttttttttt……………
My mate Dave say’s that his mate say’s that his buddy had got word of something from his mate who lives next door to a good friend of his cousins mate,who in turn got it from his mate in Australia whos related to a bloke in London , who just bought a flat next door to a close friend of a cousin who say’s "FACT ..JP backed ‘Isty’ to win 2 years ago"
Now that is a fact……….:biggrin: :biggrin: ;)
