    For us dirty each way scummers, take a look at the Irish leger

    Order of St George - 2/7
    Forgotten Rules - 12/1
    Wicklow Brave - 16/1
    Trip to Paris - 16/1
    Unicorn - 33/1
    Kellstorm - 50/1
    Silwana - 66/1

    These are the only likely runners. 365 still have all the deadwood in the betting and its 1-2-3 at 1/5 the odds.

    Love the dirty each way bets. Got an absolutely filthy one the other day on a slow reaction in an ante post market. (won't specify cos of aftertiming)

    Tried it, and it works. Paddypower seems to confirm this is legit.

    Texted mistakenly firstly for Sunday, then for the Saturday. Just got a text for Sunday tickets but no Saturday.

    If anyone fancies swapping two Saturday for two Sunday let me know :D

    Some offer, in fairness. Absolutely brilliant days racing for free. Better card at Leop than Curragh but Curragh handier for me (and things to do tomorrow) so going on the Sunday. Very heavy rain in Cork today, same in Dub/Curr?


  • Closed Accounts Posts: 16,096 ✭✭✭✭the groutch


    it says something though about the state of Irish racing (moreso the flat) if they're having to give away tickets for free.


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 2,484 ✭✭✭Peintre Celebre


    Lads anyone know if the track is walking distance from the Leopardstown stop on the luas? (and I know there's shuttle buses from stillorgan but this is early tomorrow)


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 2,484 ✭✭✭Peintre Celebre


    2/1 Awtaad is crazy tomorrow

    Lads anyone know if the track is walking distance from the Leopardstown stop on the luas? (and I know there's shuttle buses from stillorgan but this is early tomorrow)

    about 20 minute walk from Sandyford stop to the entrance, not sure if there's any direct through-road from Central Park station (think that's the one you're talking about) to the racecourse

    Cheers Groutch is sandyford the closest one to the track yeah?


  • Closed Accounts Posts: 16,096 ✭✭✭✭the groutch


    pretty much, yeah.

    the 46a bus goes a smidge closer, but not sure how close it goes to your departure point.

    At Christmas they run shuttle buses from the Luas, I would imagine they will do that tomorrow too.

    Taking the Luas

    Luas light rail offers a regular service on the Green Line from St Stephens Green in Dublin city centre to the Sandyford / Brewery Road stop. This trip takes 22 minutes. The racecourse is only a short walk from the Sandyford stop, however on race days we offer a complimentary shuttle bus service between the stop and the racecourse.


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 2,484 ✭✭✭Peintre Celebre


    Thanks lads. Shuttle no good I'll be out there around 8 am, will walk from the stop or just get a taxi


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 407 ✭✭razorhead

  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 2,484 ✭✭✭Peintre Celebre


    Shocking card at Naas next week. Two nurseries, a claimer, three maidens and a conditions race. Can't remember the last time I saw a card without an open age handicap


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 2,484 ✭✭✭Peintre Celebre


    Found one in the 6 furlong handicap at the curragh next Thursday. Only 7 days to go

    Have you looked at Entroy Pay. I know theres some fees but tis useful enough

    Never, find skrill sound. Handy for getting around restrictions


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 2,484 ✭✭✭Peintre Celebre


    I think That is the Spirit has a nice chance at Ayr tomorrow 9/1, e/w double with Athletic at Newmarket and singles

    I have a friend that let me open accounts in his name just need his i.d.

    With skrill I don't need any money through him or anything. I have my own skrill that I deposit to (verified my bank account). I then send money to his and into the bookies account. With his you don't need to verify only an e mail address because I'm not withdrawing to a card or an account I just send the money back to my skrill and withdraw from there

    Huh? Your accounts are 0.6 right off the bat if you deposit with skrill. Initial deposit really needs to be a bank or credit card these days, later ones PayPal is preferable to skrill

    Best of a bad situation, 0.6 still better than 0.02. Only one I got to use with a card was BF he didn't want any more on his account
