by the way,what NoChance was alluding to, handicap races in ireland are a bit of a mish mosh as some horses have absolutely zero form but are obviously laid out for a certain race and their odds reflect that. A J Martin and to a lesser extent Christy Roche are notorious for it. Its the real gangster part of the game here and its basically cheating but no-one really moans as they feel that the lads have performed a good old fashioned coup against the bad bookies.

Okay, good to know, will definitely keep an eye out. Though, what type of market move would indicate that they have a "live" horse in?
