BE CAREFUL of WSB in running betting!!!!!!!

A mate of mine who does not post but read this thread has also been subject to the same prob and sent me a screen shot, surely this can be remedied to avoid any confusion.

Recorded the footage on my phone last night. I am technologically challenged and it is a .MOV file which is not an accepted format here. The odds on Miss Khalifa changed about a minute after the scratching is announced.

If anyone knows how to get the clip changed to an accepted format please send me a PM.

Tried converting to an AVI file hope it works.

Try changing to an . MP4 file

Here is an MP4 file.

So your going by the Tellytrack feed?

Yes I am. How long is the delay between the odds changing and the tellytrack feed updating?

As been mentioned before this is not an isolated incident with them. I was monitoring the price after the scratching waiting for the update and none of the other bookies shortened the horse all showed over 2/1.

I suppose the only time we can trust is the moment the clerk of scales/starter/vet/stipes scratch- maybe the time on Gallop? Not sure if this info is automatically digitally disseminated to bookies or teletrack - I have seen horses scratched on Gallop early and still being traded by bookies sometimes half an hour later but it seems to be less now than before - maybe again technology can help punters - a twitter handle Race Changes set up so we know instantly when a horse is a dead bet?

Quite right Shrek, price changes on next rollover of screen(seems less than 90 seconds), often before the horse has been officially scratched (but in all probability will be by the vet),as I said in a previous post pointed out to a mate and we watched together as it happened. Quite a coincidence that these horses are being " backed" just before being scratched.

Interbet & WSB favourite trick is to shorten horses while they are bolting or refusing to load. Obvious they will be scratched therefor a bigger deduction. Bookies being doing this for many years.

With Tony on this......i have noticed this for many many years. I will just irritate myself even more if having to bring this to anyone's attention that will have an excuse for it

I am just putting this out there for people like myself did not know.

You deposited R2000 and your turnover is R1870. You are required to turnover your deposit in full before a withdrawal can be requested".

My story is as follows:

Deposited R2000.00 but only used R1870.00
Today's account balance is in excess R10k and I decided to withdraw 5k and leaving the balance in the account for tomorrow.

I used the R130.00on a soccer bet now.

It is worth mentioning that I have withdrawn my winnings daily for the past 4 or 5 days except yesterday because I lost hence my deposit today.

Just saying....news to me...You learn everyday
