Consider is Hawk Wing’s CV read as follows at the end of the season:-

2000G – 2nd<br>Derby – 2nd<br>July Cup – 1st<br>St Leger – 1st

What price the JC/Leger double ?<br>Has it even been attempted before ?

If anyone can afford such an outrageous attempt then it’s Coolmore.  If it doesn’t work out, then HW can always mop up the 8-10f races next year.

This is a good thread.  I’m surprised nobody has picked up on the Young Devereux mention.  Betfair have replied on this, to the tune that they are satisfied if connections or stable staff lay ante-post horses they know won’t run.  There seems to be a suspicion that they are also happy for connections to stop horses ?

Glenn, what would Betfair do if BHB asked for betting records, including people involved ?

In my view, Betfair need to wise up over this issue.  Otherwise, they will kill a business with enormous potential.

Valiramix is friendless on Betfair – 5/1 available.  Anything more to this than just reflecting his true chances ?

If Istabraq is 5/2 AP to win CH, what price he is placed ?

Daylight is almost right.  Mathematically, EW betting is only correct in 16+ runner handicaps but it can also be correct in a skewed market.<br>E.g. 4/5, 5/1, 5/1, 16/1 bar, 3 places.
