Paddy Power Shops

Rushing through a Paddy Power shop today and heard over the audio commentary, they were doing a Double the SP of a winner at Newmarket.
Assume it's not the 4/1 to 8/1 special they sometimes do as it said it would be on a single race as opposed to the 4/1 offer which is all races at a meeting.
Can't find anything online about it, anybody know any further details about it?

they're doing a double price special on one race at a certain meeting everyday providing you take the SP. Won't be announced which race it is on until the race has started. Example it was the Navan 2:35 yesterday

They must save a fortune on that tbf. People writing sp instead of taking the early price across the board.

They were doing 2 races today.

Yep.
Would imagine most people would back a horse at EP nowadays especially with Guaranteed Prices, you be mad not to.

Boyles enhance horses backed at SP only so they also save a fortune with Guaranteed Price's not been applied as it's SP only.

Do Paddy powers not pay at better odds if you take a price and horse wins ? is it singles only or would it apply to Doubles

You should get the bigger price if it was a guaranteed price race

I dont think you get BOG as part of a double / treb etc

Could be wrong!

It's possible that PP have rolled back on best odds guaranteed for multiples, although it still applies to singles. Some bookmakers only guarantee best odds for multiples if the bets are struck between a certain time, eg. with Ladbrokes it's between 11am and 1pm daily. You should question it though.

Paddy Powers guaranteed prices only apples to singles in shops. It applies to multiple bets as well as single in online or phone bets with PP.

There is one PP SHOP in limerick guaranteeing multiples between 12 and 2 oc and there may be others around the country.
