Talk about unlucky

whatsupdoc?

Was in PP's at lunchtime and saw they had a Placepot "offer", all the Racing Post Fav's at Exeter to be placed (6 races) 25/1.
There was a couple of dodgy looking handicaps but 2 or 3 looked "sure things"
so decided to "invest" a tenner.
Was checking the results online at work and discovered first 4 got placed .
5th race was McCoy's mount and had already backed it to win, mainly because it was the only ride AP had today so had to respect that.
McCoy wins so my 25/1 placepot is down to the last leg.
Checked Betfair and at 6/4 to be placed, I decided to hedge it.
Just as I went to click on the Lay button, in walks my boss .
After a quick chat that seemed to go for ever, he asks me to collect an important envelope from an office up the road :eek:, I can't say NO.
By the time I leave the building, the race is off so no chance of hedging.
Lash into bookies to watch the race on the way.
Looked certain of a place.......until 2 out when he starts to go backwards and eventually finishes 2nd last :mad:

Do have any comeback against my boss?

bit of a bogey

If I were you I'd get my union involved.

Everyone is doing it these days!
