No SP’s on opening race at Fairyhouse – and more disruption likely at the Curragh
The furore centred on the decision by Ladbrokes to accept single wagers on the Fairyhouse meeting in their office at the track. Up to now betting offices on track did not facilitate such bets for the meeting at which that particular office was based. Most of the layers then worked as normal for the remainder of the night, but two committee members of their association, the INBA, refused to do so.
There is likely to be further disruption at tonight's meeting at the Curragh, which also has a Ladbrokes office on site. Paddy Power run the betting office at Cork and there will be no disruption there this afternoon.
