Find myself wondering why it say antepost for the first two winning bets but not for the second two, (which are also antepost)

Perhaps this is just an advertising gimmick from betfair?

I thought I was supposed to be the conspiracy theorist Recid ? 😛

They are always on the lookout for any chance of publicity but I think this one is kosher.

I see the chap has agreed a deal with Betfair and he now gets £300k if Envoi Allen wins and £250k if it gets beat - so they've let him cashout for £275k and laid him an even £25k.

He has other bets so his position is £322k if it wins and £250k if it gets beat, I'm thinking there are worse positions to be in.
 
There’s a lot of very open races today, but here goes:-
1.20 Envoi Allen (NAP)
1.55 Storm Arising
2.30 Min
3.05 Sire Du Berlais (now that Flooring Porter is a NR)
3.40 Farclas
4.15 Rosey’s Hollow
4.50 Storm Control

Ted,

as a novice in the world of the nags, how do you calculate the 'scores'? Really enjoying it btw, thanks for doing it.

As an aside, I'm quite surprised 1950's hasn't taken part.
 
It is based on a £1 stake per race so if you pick a loser you get -1. If you back an even money winner then you get 1. Being the £1 profit you would make if you backed said horse at even money. Therefore for your NAP you are much better choosing a bigger priced horse as an odds on NAP of say 1/2 (0.5 profit) only gets doubled to 1 whereas a winning NAP of 8/1 is a profit of 16.

Hope this helps!
 
1950s has in the past questioned the NAP selections saying that it should be settled at -2 but I seem to recall that he was told to get a life and that it is a bit of fun!

Cheers Ted. Definitely makes life more interesting. Got the day off tomorrow, so might spend the afternoon watching the races. First time in my life, I've ever done that.

Technically, as your lawyer, I would argue that since you amended your bet ‘due to a NR’, and there was no NR, then you were still on Flooring Porter.

No win, no fee
 
Well... as you’ve not technically replaced a non-runner then I suppose we will have to go with the original selection

wow well done mate. I saw his tips but unlike you didn’t take the plunge - w/d the 4.4k and enjoy day 4 with the 88 😜
Like what I said I don't really do the horses and I just flicked over to itv and he was giving his tips and said he got a few naps up this week and something must have told me in my mind to do it, I done the fiver on them to win and sort of covered myself in a £2-50 each way bet
 
Jesus Christ. Well done. Did you happen to see the last race? That horse was virtually pulled up after three fences, but somehow got back into the race. Its was 1000/1 in running an won easily in end. If I was you I'd look for a video of the race as you won't see that again for years . Well done.

No I didn't lol 😂. I txt a few mates on wattsap and I went and got a shower and I came downstairs and seen I had plenty of messages! And was scared to open them and seen one had loads of clapping hands and couldn't believe it! I will prob do a few of his tips tomorrow again and that will be me back to do my football bet on a sat! As today was just meant for me and won't get that luck again
 
Had a shocker today 🙄
