    Correct Roger.
    They sold the technology for €15m to 888bet and the bookmaking side of it is being closed and by the press release they have sent out they will be voiding all outstanding bets from today on and anyone with an account has 30days to withdraw the funds.

    He will be grand once Faugheen hacks up Thursday week!!

    Not sure if anyone has as i said but i would advise anyone who has bets pending to sit on it and keep an eye on both @gondorfhenry and @BoycottBetfred on twitter. This matter has been referred to the Gambling Commission in the UK according to Paul F.
    As BetBright is an Irish entity it may be a bit messy imo but i would hold tough on cashing out those funds related to bets for the moment.

    Unless of course you want to cash out your **** antepost bets in which case go quick :D

    Don't betbright sponsor Notts Forest
    and don't 888 sponsor Derby
    And don't Forest and Derby hate each other!!!


  • Registered Users Posts: 634 ✭✭✭pugw


    Are betbright a different crowd to Betfred ?


  • Closed Accounts Posts: 636 ✭✭✭Angliru


    BetBright gubbed me after a handful of bets. Don't even think I made a profit, they're simply ***** if it looks like you're trying to take some value. They're as bad as Stan James tbh.

    See Samcro has taken the tiniest amount of support on the machine and the slack isn't as big as it was. Say a prayer the beauty is going to show his face. Would piss me off stupid if he skipped and Top Notch ended up winning after switching from the Ryanair.

    The horse better hack up the RSA and Gold Cup the next two years. Heart broken :pac: I guess I should be happy they aren't trying to ruin the horse by rushing him.

    We're looking at a soft ground festival again lads, the forecast is brutal for the next week or so.


  • Registered Users Posts: 7,569 ✭✭✭Dr. Bre


    Is this bad for presenting Percy the forecast?


  • Registered Users Posts: 15,775 ✭✭✭✭Slattsy


    Nah good for him. Really going to bring Native River back into the reckoning too.


  • Registered Users Posts: 2,579 ✭✭✭prettyboy81


    A lot of owners, trainers & maybe even some horses :D have been doing the rain dance. All but guaranteed soft, good to soft in places from Clerk or Course on Day 1. Then lets see what some jockey's say after the 1st race.

    Soft ground, and Presenting Percy is the only possibility of getting native river beat. He holds everything else comfortably.



    Percy will have to be what some think he is , anything less and Native river wins. i.e. If its soft Native river should be FAV.

    Would have thought you'd be all over Elegant Escape on soft at the current prices Aido!

    one of the first ruled out, i just think he is a plodder. Maybe he'll place, but if he couldn't get near percy on soft ground last year he has no chance in this race. Annabelle Fly is the same price, and far more likely . If he's near 20/1 on the day with 4 places, i wouldn't put anyone off unloading EW.



    Think Native River is a hugely likely winner on soft, and im not sure what gets close. On good ill be on Myte Byte at a big price.



    Anyway after all that ill be roaring Thistlecrack on .

    Sorry.. I thought you were a big EE fan, obviously mistaken!

    Properly run race see's his jumping improve imo and he'll plod home best of all.

    Going by the latest forecast, it's nothing but rain rain rain. Ground already gone good to soft, soft in places.
    Could be looking at soft to heavy for the week if the forecast materialises. Disaster.

    unreal isnt it

    sickened


  • Registered Users Posts: 2,625 ✭✭✭RivetingRoger


    If it keeps raining UDS could be a huge price right now


  • Registered Users Posts: 627 ✭✭✭zpehtsfd


    They don't do "yielding" over there so you have to factor that in. We'd be calling it Good to Yielding right now. The ground will be exactly what you would expect for this time of year. Personally i think it will suit almost all horses except for a few obvious ones like Might Bite.

    Elegant Escape will relish give in the ground too. Anibale Fly also. 2 big prices that are very good value each way plays


  • Registered Users Posts: 15,775 ✭✭✭✭Slattsy


    Proper soft or heavy and nothing gets by NR.


  • Registered Users Posts: 230 ✭✭WicklowBrave


    If the ground comes up heavy then just punt last years Festival form. You will probably make money by just backing WPM and Gordon blind for the week to be brutally honest.

    Percy says Hi..........

    Destroyed a good field in heavy last years RSA

    Might Bite went ok on the soft ground last year. He has more concerns than the state of the ground.
    Not bleeding would be top of that list.

    PP special Percy 5/1 on shop
