Yes I'll have a go that one too ta, I like these as you can't lose. I wish I was more up this new acca freeze thing, just found out if I'd used it last weekend I'd've won about £70 instead of nout - good Yorkshire word for you there SG. I'll see if I can be more on the ball with it today...

(Not my slip btw. I merely posted it to highlight the danger of betting at long odds-on - if I had £20,000 to spare, I wouldn't risk it in the hope of winning £8,000.)
Ah, you had your thumb over the not winning bit, but now I see PL...which I assume meant it was placed. You'd still have lost several grand, so 20k seems very risky, foolhardy I'd say. Does make you wonder about the oddsmaker though, did he get that one right?? Don't know enough about racing but in team sports if a team is 2/5 it's pretty much a certainty, but then I suppose you only have two players, not several as in racing.
