Chrome

no backer took him on head to head. its was taken in small chunks all the way through. This $50k was put up much earlier then agencies moving price, so i suggest he didnt get on anywhere else at a better price. I see it more then not that when a horse is getting heavily hit on the lay side and the money is being taken the horse, no matter what its odds will fail to make a placing.
I was making an observation after spending 20min clicking on every site i have up to find a trend to match this layers stash. It wouldnt be at all uncommon for the stable to lay it off. I am aware of such a similiar thing about to happen in the next week for a trainer to retreive lost EI revenue north of the border. Do you have a horse Chrome? Spend time in stables? and have frienDs who do the same? We find this to be a common occurance spanning many years. The rise of Betfair has only made it worse.
The point was before you posted. i made an observation. It was very very unusual to see such a large sum on a Canterbury night meeting want to be layed. They didnt get better odds and tried to lay it off at a profit, as you claim because there was no better odds available anywhere. THey started at $1.70 and drove right up to $1.88 with $25k at that price available. THe horse as it turns out talied well off last. The observation stands & my suspision was correct. You chrome have simply gone against the grain. Perhaps your right but big lay, failed horse is what i am talking about here. Nothing more.
