Dave I understand.
He is nor was nominated for the July. Had by some miracle he won today he would be in the July.
Now Sam Smythe (6 years old) is not playing at Wimbledon BUT Ladbrokes will lay you £100 on him winning Wimbledon before 2045.
My point is they are supposed to be bookmakers. They should have the capability to analyse an event, look at the competition and create odds.
Now he ran a cracker, got interfered with and ran 6 lengths behind. there is No July. And they don't have to worry any longer.
Good day Sir, I remember a time when EYE OF THE TIGER won the July .A year earlier it ran at Clairwood park having its first run, It won. The punters asked the bookmaker what can he offer for it to win next years July and he offered them 100/1 and they took it, rest was history .Point is back in the day you could take ridiculous bets with an INDIVIDUAL bookmaker as he reported to know one but himself, so he alone made the decisions. Nowadays the structures of the bookmakers makes it even impossible to get a stretch on a bet.
I know in England you can even have a bet on tomorrows weather lol.
