    An eleventh hour rug-pull at Donny.. Crowds are cancelled at the Leger meeting
    from tomorrow onwards.... Only yesterday there was an interview with one of the
    'chiefs' (didn't catch his name) from Doncaster going on about tables/groups/designated barpersons/
    bookies/toilets etc for each individual group.... As well as the protocols for gaining entry - including people
    (some from other racecourses) to look on/oversee etc.. as well as them having the power/authority to eject anyone
    going against protocols.

    Breaking news this was on SSR about 12 O'clock... Wonder what happened that led them to change their
    minds.... Bit of a joke really

    Their case per 100,000 went above 10 is what's caused it according to the Racing Post although there have been new restrictions on social gatherings introduced in the UK in the last 24 hours.

    For those lucky enough to have a bet365 account, you won't find many more better 100/1 shots than Never Back Down tomorrow night who has some good form at Dundalk. Has flopped on the turf but could be reenergised tomorrow. I'd have backed this at 20s tbh

    Into 40s now. Anyone that got 100 won't be able to bet with them again.

    They held it two hours and it's not a palp. May kill some though if on the edge.

    Had a few max bets on this lad this summer.
    Hood worked a treat last day so hopefully stall issues are sorted.
    The only thing that was stopping me putting the house on him is the jockey. His record is absolutely appalling. So much so that I have it in my head that Ado puts him on the ones that definitely aren't supposed to win.
    Now that you've put him up I think I'll have to reconsider.

    Yeah doesn't seem too hot but he gave Raphael a nice ride one day down in Killarney I think it was to win for these owners

    Yeah same crowd. To be fair he doesn't seem to be giving them stinkers or anything... just that he's getting the leg up on the pigs.

    THe mInD BogGleS....:eek::confused::pac: yeah actually it makes sense ... I'd put a house on him.... YOUR house!!!!

    Oh and just to add a sprinkle of sanity to this Never Back Down's form is all on UK all-weather tracks......>2 years ago.... would not describe the form at Dundalk as any way great.

    Hopefully this will be picked up here.... quick question.

    What is the best mobile site that will allow me to view a horse and tell me clearly and simply its last winning mark -v- current mark? Essentially telling me 'this horse is 10lb below/above lwm or something similar.

    For Irish ponies, irishracing.com will give you lwm if horse is below the lwm!

    Never mind. Just seen it in the other thread. That's an almighty cock up. What sort of penalties can we expect here, bans or fines, both?
