Always back the horse named self-interest, son. It'll be the only one trying
It doesn’t seem that the TAB fixed odds price setting on the Albion Park trots has improved any since we last drew the huge overs being bet in the opening markets to your attention. Yesterday in race 7 the last start winner against almost an identical field Targaryen opened up at $7.00 with the TAB. […]
What can you say about the TAB outage at the start of spring? Four things I reckon. Gillon the Great has turned into Gillon the Grape in world record time. The outfit he leads is Friar Tucked. This was just a warm-up run for the inevitable meltdown on Cup day. And Tabcorp should change its […]
Methinks punter Peter Lawrence is the last person who should be whining and moaning about TAB rorts. After all, Lawrence is Robbie Waterhouse’s man on the NSW north coast, and a close associate of Sally Snow. He wasn’t complaining when Sally was inflating the TAB odds for his crew during the hour of power then […]
Tabcorp’s share price has been in freefall since it announced a $1.4 billion annual loss a week ago, and just when you thought it couldn’t get any lower, it has. When Tabcorp demerged from what is know known as the Lotteries Corporation (The Lott) shares were $1.00 each, valuing the company at $2.28 billion. At […]
So much for Gillon McLachlan the messiah. He has been in the big chair at Tabcorp for less than a month and already the company’s share price has plummeted to an all time low. Currently priced at 45.5 cents, the value of Tabcorp shares – and therefore the company’s equity – has been stripped by […]
In October 2022 Tabcorp – in a move intended to increase its currently miserable penetration in the under 35’s punting demographic – paid $32.8 million to buy 20% of the privately owned fantasy sports/social betting company Dabble, valuing that company as worth $164 million. Since then it has paid an additional $2.8 million to increase […]
This may not be the reason it is happening, but back when my mate was the harness racing bookmaker at the NZ TAB he told me a story about how the gallops guys at the TAB used to copy and past the Bet 365 odds (they were the first ones up back then), and how […]
And so it continues. Look at these ones. Great kicker for a fixed price multi for those in the know who got on early aren’t they? The mail is that if you want to find the punter knocking off the odds you might want to look down south to Victoria or even Tasmania. Connections with […]
The crazily over the odds TAB opening fixed prices on the trots are happening in Victoria too. Here are some examples from last night at Kilmore. Race 2 The Iron Duke had won 2 of its past 4 starts and run 3rd at another. It was unlucky when beaten from a bad draw last time […]
As we showed you at the Albion Park meeting during the week, there is something seriously suspicious going on at Tabcorp in relation to the fixed-price odds they are posting on the trots. Horses that should open in the betting as short priced favorites are being put up at prices markedly longer than they should […]
