Balls missed that one - won by a length at 12/1.!

I can hear the thunder of the hooves of the after timers rushing to post how much they won on it
Is it PotG?

Couldn't have backed it with Monopoly money.......
.....unless of course you knew.
I just put a £100 on it so didn't think it worthy of a mention.
I was going to keep my £1,500 stake on Kansas City Chief to win, quiet, but seeing that you’re boasting.

Think the definition of 'after timers' needs to be extended somewhat Enrest, to cover those posting about a TB winner AFTER the event which is the square root of fvck all use to anybody. Seem to recall you did one of those yourself fairly recently. At least the guy today had the good grace to apologise for the after timing, unlike some...
Stratum's going for a gentle jog at Punchestown tomorrow. 1.45.

Does anyone have a good guess about the sort of money Tony Bloom will have made today from a “12/1 shot” about which he obviously knew a lot more than the bookies...?
£5K, £10K, £50K, £100K...
Presumably he can’t get massive bets laid but also, presumably, as a generally shrewd bloke, he tries to make his racing hobby pay for itself as far as he can...?

My guess is he's paid for Potters contract extension with a 12-1 Winner, he no doubt has the capability to lay bets all over the world with a multitude of bookmakers and online betting markets, so he's easily made £250 today.
Well, you've been warned!

There are no restrictions on betting exchanges as far as I am aware, so I am sure he could place whatever bets he likes.
Sadly a very accurate prediction ................................

Tango Boy runs for TB tomorrow 5 minutes before K/O (12:25pm) at Catterick - Only had two runs to date (Won once) and definitely worth an odds check in the morning!
Missed out on Kansas City Chief - fortunately only very small punt on Stratum - let's hope this one hasn't got a Christmas hangover!
Energumene (never heard of him/her) going in the 4.00 at Thurles too. Short odds though.

Good spot... now 11/8 from 9/4
Librisa Breeze clipped into 8/1 too.....
Maybe this is the January double that Tony has planned to cover the cost of our new striker..
Roughly a 20/1 double, £1m down covers the cost of a new striker... easy that...
Beach Hut
Brighton Bhuna Boy
Both £2.50 E/W (to save accusation from you know who of after-timing)

Most bets to be posted AFTER it wins of course
