Interesting that the punt on Archers Road went awry earlier...can confirm that new and previous connections had a go but also a lot of others backed it. Why did people join in?..because the Racing Post had it listed as trained by David Barron which hasn't been the case for a very long time.Obviously those assumed that the beast had travelled from England for an apprentice h'cap which wasn't true.It's run around a field by the new owners husband who trains it. Paddy Power had the correct trainer listed on their extended betting sheet..Why pay the ridiculous subscription charged by the RP for erroneous information?
Dex, anyone joining in on a punt on a known bleeder has to be barking dont they! I wonder if you could sue the RP for loss of winnings LOL
I'm away to the old ancestral home for Easter but I must say I'm extremely interested in Possible in the 2.20 at Cork on Saturday. The reason is obvious.Soft ground would be a huge plus on pedigree.
Lol Stick...I never touched him for that reason but he had been going quite well allegedly.However,there is a reason he was given away and not with David Barron.Tbh it wouldn't take a fortune to precipitate the odds contraction on that race once the suspects became known. No idea if the average £20 punters joined in.My point is simple.I think the on line RP is a waste of money,even more so if it can't get factual information to punters. I only use the free on line section occasionally.
