#TopRant Too many race meetings Agree/Disagree ?


From a betting perspective,  I believe there's too many race meetings. yes, yes demand/supply but i feel Its more of a bookmakers decision as oppose to race courses. Think about it  Monday to Saturday, we have 5/7 race meetings between Ireland/Uk alone thats 6 races X 5 meetings per day = 30 races on average to try and get through and research the value/edge in one evening.
PHEW Hope I'm getting paid?

Mark your cards 
You might even have your email/text alerts set up but then, find your checking the weather reports, 
Non -runners ,are Odds drifting in/out.  Even if you have a good database to filter out these it now becomes a full time job on top of the full time job you already have of working , minding kids, paying bills etc So at most you might find a hour or two  to do your research but again the bookmakers have us right where they want us overloading us with volumes of  races Horse/dogs/Virtual  etc just making It hard and harder to get that edge over them (  bookmakers )

You hardly think  Leicester,Lingfield,Worcester  are packed to the rafters with on course race goers ?
The prize money for owners/trainers are at a all time low. Most races are sponsored by Bookmakers. In effect THE REASON why We have  more races to ponder but  whose policing It ? on the other hand, you're told  It has brought plenty of jobs for stable staff , on course staff , trainers, jockeys and all involved it has a 360 affect. I just  don't think thats coming from the bookmakers profits ? do you .
Now where was I Ah yes  15:40 Newcastle  Rayadour (IRE) ew Mmmmm
