THE R500 SWINGER!? SA HORSERACING HITS NEW PEAK!

Hello fellow punters?

 

Well, almost two months since my last blog, and believe me that was not because pay outs in horse racing have suddenly gone back to some sort of normality..? There have still been some absolute shockers in the last two months, but to be honest one kinda got sick of ranting on about the 'rip-off' status of our racing/betting industry

I'm not in the least bothered by the comments/replies from the African Betting Clan (big, broad shoulders, me...) and the majority of the guys apparently 'blind loyalty' to this activity some of us used to enjoy, but which has now become a one-way "crook-fest" of note!

 

There was another ludicrous R48k Grand PA at Kenilworth during OCT., then on the 31st the record breaking, nearly, R500.00 Swinger. (forgive me for rounding-off, but these preposterous pay outs deserve grandiose highlighting- it's only R15.80 short of R500, but let me remind you- this is a bloody SWINGER pay out!!!). I might be a lightweight compared to some of the 'ol Glenfiddich imbibers out there, bit I have NEVER, EVER seen a swinger pay out of this size..?

 

If it's a bet you don't normally play compare the SW & Exacta payouts in this 'dodgy' Race 5 to the pay outs in Race 4 above it in photo 2.  I bet the respective connections collected though?

 

As I've said many times before, and fully understand, we seasoned punters expect upsets but the last 6 months of this year have been laughable in the extreme! (except most punters I know, and me, are not laughing- crying more like it, blubbing like a baby, in fact!) And I haven't even started on the Summer Cup!? All the best of luck lads, 'cos studying form counts for sh.t these days!
