Re:Standby Meetings and Choosing of Venues

Now can we ensure that the brains at the tote know to offer exotics on all these meetings as well, or do we cover the races for the bookies?

Recently the evening Jackpot Quickmix covers Irish racing but there is no exotic bets for Irish racing itself.

I am not a fan of Australian harness racing but yesterday no meeting was covered.

With Hong Kong season finishing this Saturday, I hope the Australian meetings get covered on the weekends. After the internal problems of Mauritius racing the field sizes are putrid at the moment. The bigger the fields, the bigger the pools.

Lastly, can the commingling of the swingers please stop with the UK. It can be done on World Pool days but UK swingers commingling is of no value.

Good day Tote guys.
Trust you are well.
Why is there only tote betting for races 1-5 for Longchamp flat racing and not for the full card. The 7’th race is their daily big Quinte race.
Why do you cover the full card trott meeting from Beaumont De Lomange?
Very difficult to see the logic behind this…………

R8. No 5
Strong ew bet

Longchamps

Dave can you get a response to the following.

First of all, thanks for the Saratoga coverage.

Who is in charge of them choosing the venues be it in the morning, afternoon or evening for exotics. By exotics, means swingers, trifecta, quartets, etc.

Tomorrow Tuesday they covering Young, the last four races. Average field size, 8 with a maximum of 9 runners with a total of 32 runners.

Then you have Bendigo, with bigger fields, 11, 12, 13 runners which they can start offering the exotics from 11h00 until the last race if they wish.

Why did they choose Young over Bendigo. Also due to the heatwave only one UK meeting will take place which starts at 14h50. It would have made sense to go with Bendigo.

There is also no clash with Cape racing for majority of the races if they covered Bendigo.

Its proven in that every racing jurisdiction, the bigger the fields, the bigger the pools. On Met World Pool day the biggest pools was with race with the biggest field not a feature race.
