Ouch, this is messy. Peter Webb from BetAngel detailing a bizarre trading move yesterday at Newbury races. A 400/1 shot backed down to 1.08 (1/12) in pre-race betting , with no logic behind it whatsoever, it could only be a mistake. Fat fingers crucify punter £27k alone backing the 400/1 shot at 1.08 - you can't get that back! And it wasn't an omen either - the horse ran third last, beaten over 20 lengths. Bots can be brilliant when they have been properly tested and work perfectly, but by golly, they can be expensive when they go wrong.
