Sorry to open new thread for this but no doubt someone might have later.
A Betfair user so never really use Bet365 but just noticed a horse I fancy tomorrow is running in the ch4 offer race at 240 (fiftyshadesofgrey). If he wins I get a free bet on their next offer race which is at 350 - do I have to use the bet on that race or can I wait for some ch4 offer race down the line? Again apologies if I'm in wrong place as couldn't find information in forum search and on phone so finding it hard to get exact information I need online.

Basically just put the same amount bet on the next race, and if doesn't win, they will refund you a couple of minutes after the race.

I forget about it half the time, had more of that to win the WH, and had a bet in the following race and got beaten, nice suprise when I saw money go back into the account.

I think 5.20 Redcar Ana Shababiya 9/1 should run a nice race on her seasonal reappearance if fully wound up after a break. A notoriously hard puller, Ana Shababiya was generally progressive last year and I think she's still go the scope to be quite a bit better than her current mark of 68. Hopefully a little more settled now a 4 year old, I'm hoping the talented 5lb claimer Tim Clark lets her bowl along in front from her low draw in a race that doesn't seem to have much pace and if she settles nicely she could prove too good for this average enough looking field. There is a definite possibility she may be too free on her first start for 139 days but I think she's a horse worth following this season, especially if the hood goes on her.

One to keep a close eye on irrespective of todays run.

Yeah I think so. Think she has the ability to be competitive off marks in the 80s eventually but she could be one of those that falls quite a way in the handicap before doing anything too. Certainly one I'm going to follow with interest.

Trainer is also one to note.Brought Educate along nicely last year.sure to have a few dark horses among small string.

I think Ismail Mohammed could have a big season. Did very well with the likes of Educate & Mubtadi last year and finished with an excellent 25-95 in the 2013 calender year.

I think he'll get a better quality of animal this year and I think the yard will definitely be looking to surpass last year's total.

They looked to have secured a massive coup in getting Sir Henry's number 2 Mike Marshall on board but he changed his mind to join the new Martyn Meade operation instead. I'm sure he thinks that will expedite his chances of becoming a trainer outright.

Very encouraging reappearance by Ana Shababiya beaten by two unexposed 3 year olds despite being weak in the market. Still didn't settle as well as you'd like but was a lot better in that department and she should improve for the outing. More to come for sure.
