I’m personally clutching my AP vouchers on let’s dance for this, hoping she pitches up. I can’t think of a better race to use her allowance.
Hopped on too after reading this, very well played. Stonking GN prospect at 40/1 too. Gone in strong. Should be half that.
‘However, where the related parts of the bet are resolved at different times, unless ‘special double’ or ‘special accumulative’ odds are available, bets will be settled as instructed with the odds for the second or subsequent legs being determined at each individual stage.’
Here’s your key phrase from the T+C Frankie, and it’s specifically unspecific upon which terms those legs will be settled. I would suggest that the second leg being settled at its own individual stage would imply SP.
Still, a winner is a winner!
I’m afraid this practice is commonplace amongst online bookmakers and your attempts to kick up a stink will all have been seen before. If you contact them now they may fix the current odds. Otherwise on the day you’ll be subject to them taking whichever stance suits them best at the time. If SP ends up being bigger I’m sure you wouldn’t be happy with retrospectively applied odds. I’ve been here before with these bets and you invariably get shafted. If the horse loses of course the bet never required correcting…
Software would seriously struggle to pick out every related contingency implication out there. Plus it’s in the bookies interest to have you in this position now anyway.
On a positive note as I mentioned elsewhere previously they can’t do much about related bets not featuring the same horse, ie Altior Clarence chase min arkle double (Don’t do that one mind, just an example!).
Annie power Mares hurdle and Faugheen CH would be another example, youd never get the 13/1 on the double available now when their targets are announced, and provided both make it they will surely be kept apart.
Hopefully that works.
Wasn’t sure what he was aimed at so also had 2 doubles on the tolworth/AB and tolworth/Neptune.
Be annoyed if he ends up in the supreme !
Hey Frankie. I fear that bet will be classed as a ‘related contingency’. They won’t mention anything until you win, but if you do they will likely settle the cheltenham target leg at SP I’m afraid.
Love this comp, thanks for running it again.

Nap: On the fringe foxhunters. Seriously impressive last year and this year looks a weaker race to boot.
Lay: Djackadam. Hideous prep for the gold cup, the horse is coming in off a fall, had a grueling race last year and hasn’t even run a total of 4 miles this season.
Each Way: vroum vroum mag Ryanair. I’ll take a punt that she goes here as thistlecrack looks the real deal and her hurdles form is way short of the mark. 9/1 now is a good price all things considered for a horse that will likely start fav. R2R the only fly in the ointment.
