    ok so i have 250 going onto Red Jade at Nottinghm in a few minutes, he is the final horse in a treble. my original stake was only 20euro

    should i put a 5er each on the second and 3rd favorite? 4/1 and 5/1 respectively, so that no matter what happens i cover my stake or make small profit??

    the price of Red Jade is now 4/6 so i stand to do well if he comes in, but is it worth covering?

    or maybe just putting 20 on the Philip Robinson horse? he is 5/1 so if he wins im up 60, if the Richard hills horse wins, ill be shocked cuz richard hills is brutal......

    or should i jyst leave the bet as is?

    i did just that, i stuck a tenner e/w on ibeson.....and i also stuck another 50 on red jade :) once i saw the Jarvis horse acting up so much before loading i figured there was no real challenger
