    Of 8,300 betting shops in UK  7,500 owned by multiples,<br>they will as most do now offer their own prices on all races including those managed by AMRAC,

    AMRAC hope to impose their own restrictions on us on-course bookmakers from conveying our prices to the outside world.

    If a big IF, they are able to convince the minority of single ownership shops it will give them an advantage over the multiples they still wouldn’t be able to operate viably,

    punters will be the losers, the mutiples wont be blackmailed, the UK racing product is not that profitable, betting shops can easily continue without it,

    ie. machines, micky mouse, sports betting, lucky numbers, greyhounds, even virtual footie,

    I will go without AMRAC it will price itself out of the market eventually

    repeat, hopefully for the last time, as AP says,  SIS provide shows to 8,300 betting shops,  they do not decide sp’s, that is done by a sample of bookmakers, in yesterdays case, 6, of which 3 were lads hills and bd, we were the only 3 offering ew terms,

    the win book shows were 24% overbroke on place terms,

    I reduce all runners apart from fav so that place book is exactly 100%, ie no profit,

    what do you suggest I bet 24% overbroke to accommodate ew thieves, or even force betting shops to do the same.

    simple answer change place terms to tote or betting exchange prices on such races.  fancy that??

    MP’s have spin merchants, Betfair brag they are uncovering dubious betting patterns with their MOU.

    They never give a one word answer ie. YES or NO.

    To the question is it now easier for unscruplous owners, trainers, jockeys, stable staff, to lay a horse than it was pre Betfair?

    the answer is too painful.

    Glenn, Every time I bet on a 16 runner hcp. I drastically reduce all the prices of the runners until the book shows exactly 100% betting margin on the place book, and as I am hugely influential in the returned sp’s in the south,

    <br>I LOVE IT. and if you dont like it even better

    he was gutted, so started his crooked sp campaign.

    Please don’t bet bet with us dodgy bookmakers,

    exchanges are the way forward,   20% better,  their deductions are much more realistic, sit in the comfort of your armchair and know immediately the returns.

    you know it makes sense.

    Sam, my betting shop punters were not interested, they preffered the FOBT’s, said it was too hard to equate the form, the results proves they were right.

    Idea for another Sir Peter book,

    commentators of his time, what memories he could recall from his long past,<br>my favourites Arlott and Jonners,

    will my grandkids talk of Thommo with the same nostalgia???????
