Star Sports laid GBP 375,000 Douvan

Star Sports laid GBP 375,000 Douvan at 1/4 on ONE bet.

Not to mention all the other GBP 20,000 bets, etc.

Douvan got beaten. They pocketed the lot.

Yesterday they laid Altior to lose GBP 100,000 and lost, yet still finished the day ahead.

Today they went in again on a monster bet and pocketed the lot.

Compare that to those idiot 'bookmakers' at Track and Ball who refused a bet to lay a liability of R50,000 at Scotsville earlier today.

Fortune favours the brave and the brave have (1) lots of good publicity and (2) all the money

if you cannot lay 50k of a horse then you shouldnt be in the bookmaking business full stop especially that a few years ago gold circle chucked out other bookies who stood on course and tendered 4 licenses including one for themselves to stand at greyville AND ONLY 2 LICENSES TO STAND AT SCOTSVILLE RACECOURSE INCLUDING ONE OF THEIR OWN ..the other bookie permitted to stand at scotsville is morris vee ...If track and ball who are gold circle owned want to be a force in the bookmaking industry then they must compete and not shy away as if you look at the odds they offer online they are at 10 to 20 percent worse than many of their competitors plus i notice they will not open on races antepost where the field has many first timers ...
