Remarkable steamer


Great Leighs was the first new racecourse to open in the UK for some time. One thing I have noticed about Great Leighs is the large number of remarkable market movements. Last night there was another on King Canute. Matched for small amounts at 70 it came in with volume from 10's to start at 2.30, though it's notable the SP returned 3.11!

Which ever starting point you take this was a HUGE gamble, ultimately one that wasn't landed. Such is the extent of the price change it was listed on Betfair as the second to last runner, quite remarkable.
