That was weird

That was weird

Some odd betting patterns at Warwick today, Abhainn was unexpectedly backed before the off from 8’s into 3’s. You can see from the price chart that the price asked was very definite. At the time I thought, ‘That was weird’. But you are never going to get upset at laying something for much less than you expected. That was only half the story, in running £10k was matched at 2.36. It won!

Hustle

Was this a hustle or just a  case of fat fingers? On Wednesday we saw another one of those odd moments when the price on something comes crashing in for no apparant reason. I posted up some examples on the blog before where I got something matched at tiny prices that should have been 1000. On this race we saw something matched at 10’s that really should have been 20’s, not just once but twice!
