    ATR only show antepost options up to June. Oddschecker has quotes for the Arc from many bookies, but the rules state that it has to be on ATR, yes?

    Question re Rule 4. I can't be bothered applying Rule 4 but was wondering whether to just use the SP on all bets where Rule 4 is declared

    Also there is a horse declared for 2 races tomorrow and is odds on for both. Clearly the odds will shorten dramatically when it is withdrawn from one. How do bookies/exchange deal with these situations?

    Re Rule 4 ....... your solution would be fairest for bets placed close to the day of the race, but quite unfair for a winning bet placed essentially ante post a couple of weeks/months earlier. I'd be inclined to ignore R4 completely!

    Second point is a bit trickier, although I'm not sure that their odds would change once preferred race is announced. Bookies will surely price up each race on it's merits?

    Did you come to any decision about the ATR/Oddschecker question Ron?

    Far be it from me to criticise, but this comp is supposed to run all year yet plenty of you are wading in on this first Saturday in January with heavy ground all over the place. Easy now lads, don’t be blowing your bank in January <laugh>
