not worth the hassle keith imo. The best way to do it would be to buy an A9 greyhound for about £500 get a trainer to "get him ready" then go round all of the shops on a mad spree and stick loads on at sp. Make sure it is in a BAGS meeting. Then have a word with one or two of the on track bookie's and make them drift the price to around 7/1, then when it storms in u go collecting with a smile on your face. It's your dog afterall, whats wrong with having a few quid on?

obv call the dog sweet revenge. pm me before it runs ty.

In my experieince of having a lump on a dog in a BAGS meeting in a highstreet bookies they usually wont let you take the price.

yeah, but he's not taking the price, its a knock out job, the bookies on course are in on the coup and drift the dog out for a healthy sp

for the knock out job it has to be a pretty empty track with a weak market(that being said the state of the game today,especially BAGS meetings) that's most of em.

The way i'm running at the moment we'd get a dog up at about 7's that was 1/2 a second faster than anything else in the field but wound up getting knocked about all over the gaff to get bt a short head!!! Roll Eyes

Don't need to get the bookies involved, will be no-one there so just smash into the 2nd/3rd fave on track and it will shoot your price out, as well as act as insurance.

and smashing into one these days with the one course firms at a bags meeting constitutes as being about £40-50! sad but true.

Agreed, a £50 on a dog on course at a bags meeting will take at LEAST half a point off.

I think i posted this on here before somewhere, i went to crayford saturday night ages ago, was packed but not with punters but drinkers, the inside was packed and i think i was waiting to back a dog later and i was mucking untill then, there was no one outside and i had (it might have been £20 but im almost certain it was £10) on a dog @ 7/2 and he wiped it and put 3/1, i think i was one of about 3 people to have a bet with them outside that race, sad to see!

This isn't just lack of punters though. It's also weak bookies. I go Oxford quite alot and yeah it's generally quite empty. But you know who the best guy there is coz he hold's the price a bit longer even though i've put my bet on for £40-£50.

It's like, you have to have 3 bookies at a BAGS meeting for betting shop odd's purposes. But all the bookies there are either working together, or if not, they are just copying each others prices! I mean at Swindon couple weeks ago... One guy is a decent punter, has a phone to his ear and wanders outside when he knows what hes backing.. He would go to the bookie on the right, and he's getting on my dog, I can hear him ask, so I run to the bookie on the left and he has already wiped his price off! WTF is that. Obv on this occasion I held my bet and went for value in the race which won. LOL. In your face weak bookie.

I know what you're saying but this was tony morris!!!

Kinda poignant as well in that his trick at catford used to be adding half a point to a dog after someone he didnt like or didnt recognise had just backed it to wind them up a bit, anyway i fancied a dog one night in any pretty open graded race down there and they were betting like 5/2 each of 3 and an overound of about 150%, just ridic and so i get my pal to bowl up to him and have a £10 on this dog by i instruct to be as obnoxious as possible, just make it look like you think you know everything and that seems to always give him the hump, i dont know why but he used to do it so much, he mustve hated the punters so much, anyway as standard as soon as my pal does his thing he rubs it and shows 3/1 at which point i bunk it and get a £300 on.

good plan in theory and he knew what i'd done which i liked!

[ ]the dog didnt fall out and stay last the whole race!

I was praying that fcking dog won, just that one time so he knew i'd done him up, sigh!
