What exactly has happened to the nett R849 760-22 invested in today’s Arlington Place Accumulator bet?
There has been no official word from any official horseracing entity to explain the fact that the progressive dividend declaration on this popular bet has been frozen on the first leg.
That opening leg was the third race run on the Friday programme and it was run shortly after 13h45.
In the light of all the conspiracy theories floating around, and the general lack of empathy and interest shown in the punting public and lifeblood of the game, this complete lack of official response or good service ethic is just what we have come to expect.
It is just not good enough – despite the half hearted ‘apology’ issued three and a half hours later.




Is this the best reporting you guys can give the people who make the effort to read this article? Why not find out what happened to the pool and then report a full story instead of just posting a “bitch & moan” uninformative story…?
If I want blog reporting I’ll go to ABC for that!
P.S. why don’t Sporting Post say who writes a specific article – state the name of the journalist at the top / bottom of each article?
What’s the bet there is no explanation yet Luke!
Have Saftote used their private mouthpiece Tellytrack to tell the public anything yet?
Have you ever tried to get hold of racing administration on a Friday afternoon?
Word is they didnt even know about the problem till hours later!
So there is probably not yet much to report. Let’s give the Sp post an opportunity to get the full story maybe!
