welshbairn Posted March 17, 2017 Share Posted March 17, 2017 Not keen on the Sky Bet site, used the free bet money on what was supposed to be an ew trixie, now it seems it was all horses tw, which means my 18/1 Dadsintrouble pick has to win the 4.50 to get any money back. A major reason for the bet was the extra places. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Lofarl Posted March 17, 2017 Share Posted March 17, 2017 I made loads last year doing matched betting on Cheltenham. I never had placed any horse bets until the lead up of it last year. I must admit I was pretty ignorant about horse racing and aside from picking a horse in the Grand National at the works sweepstake I never bothered my arse with it. But afterwards I felt uncomfortable due to the fact that a lot of Horses died in last years in the festival. I assumed Horse deaths were a quite rare thing. I'm not having a go at anyone. I realize I'm a hypocrite, I never donated my profits to horse charities etc. But does it not bother you that Horses die in this thing so often? The current number is 3. I've no doubt that the trainers and owners care for their animals. But getting them to jump massive hurdles is just asking for trouble. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

They probably get treated better and live longer than any other captive animal. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
lichtie23 Posted March 17, 2017 Share Posted March 17, 2017 Gutted after the 2.50 as I had Constantine Bay who was hindered by the faller after travelling well. Finished like a train as well! WANKSCue Card didn't look great before his fall. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
welshbairn Posted March 17, 2017 Share Posted March 17, 2017 Woo Hoo, 25/1 winner in the 4.50. Need something in the final race I think though to break even. I'll remember to put singles on next year. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
