They haven't had a sportsbook for long (they started life as a poker site), but my experience of them so far for betting on UK and Irish racing has been pretty positive. I find their odds are slightly above average overall and they'll lay any UK or Irish runner for over a grand (more than that on a Saturday). They can normally verify your account automatically, so no need to mess about sending them ID and so far I've had my withdrawal requests processed promptly and without any quibbles.

Will have a look tomorrow Steck.cheers

I'm sure you'll have tried this already, but what about some of the Scottish independent betting shops? I can only speak from my own experience south of the border, but I've always found that they are a bit more willing (at least for a while) to lay a good bet in a shop than the big chains and you don't normally have to mess around while they phone through to the Betfair watchers for authorisation as their managers generally tend to have more freedom.
