It says - skybet 

1. Bets must be placed between 08:00 Friday 22nd February 2019 and 13.30 Tuesday 12th March 2019.

Does that mean I have to get all my bets in for each day prior to it starting 2mo?

No. For the Weds/Thurs/Fri races, the conditions change to the appropriate day.

So you can bet on the day for each race, which is what I'm doing for the JLT on Thursday. Absolute minefield of a race.

Hmm, should be fine doing it each morning. That’s what I’ve been doing every year and usually get my money back within an hour or two (if it loses).

My interpretation is that if you place a bet after 8am on 22 February but before 1:30 pm on 12 March then it should be valid.

So, in my opinion, you need to have placed your bets before 1:30 pm tomorrow.

Thanks Len.  Will get on it now

So yeah, it varies for Ballymore etc.

Thanks all.  Was just panicked I had to pick 4 day’s racing now.  Only gonna go in for the offer of cash back on each first race at the moment.  Might have a look at what else is on over the coming days

It's the usual £5 for me, but I won't knock it

Elixir De Nutz out. Balls. Was carrying mine and other's shillings for the free bet offer, so I'll reinvest in Mister Fisher, who I hope will give James Bowen a lovely 18th birthday present.

Cheers for the heads up i was on Elixir aswell

Champ Hurdle Tuesday .. Verdana Blue beat Buveur D'air at Kempton on boxing day .. probably a right fluke but at 40/1 I have had an e/w dabble  .. she also gets a 7lb allowance pity Nico de B is not riding her again though .. there are of course two other red hot mares in the race .. we will see

Topped up my betting account ready for Cheltenham.  Can't wait for the account to be empty by the end of tomorrows racing, like every bloody year!!!

Am I reading it right - Hills are paying seven places in the Supreme Novices?

Could be worth jumping on anything they have that’s top price - you’d expect the value to show regardless of how you expect the race to pan out.

As of right now they have Grand Sancy 14/1. Other places at 12/1.

That’s nearly 3/1 for a spot in the top seven out of seventeen.

Or hang around until tomorrow and see if they have your chosen runner go top price at any point.

Doubles don't give you stake back though do they?

Holdkneebomb

Based on nothing other than a liking for the trainer I am going for calipto at 20/1 in the handicap. Enjoy your day those that are going

Hear could be a threat of it being off due to high winds and risk of danger to public from temporary structures blowing down. God I hope not.

£20 back as cash, if that's one of the ones you have to choose between. 

Altior is easily the best one there - the others could conceivably get turned over, while it would take a lot for Altior to disappoint imo. Shame it's on Wednesday though.
