    Okay so collectively Ginger and Gord are odds on (deep), but hoping this is not a 2 horse race. :lol:

    Since I’m only allowed 15 to 25 other races I’m going to go very carefully. My first 2 are at ROYAL ASCOT.

    RACE 1

    ESTIMATE (ASCOT GOLD CUP) 13/2 Betvictor (2 points win)

    RACE 2

    PRINCE OF JOHANNE (ROYAL HUNT CUP) 16/1 general (1 POINT EACH WAY)

    Up and running with a 50% strike rate and a

    13 POINTS PROFIT[/color:11if9gjr]

    Thanks to ESTIMATE. Will be on the outlook for race 3 but keeping my powder dry for now! :mrgreen:

    You’re profit should be +11 Red Rum. We don’t get our stakes back in this competition. Just keeping tabs on you. :D

    Pretty sure a 13/2 winner returns 15 and a profit of 13, not return 13 and a profit of 11. By the way just for future use, it’s your not you’re. :wink:

    Do we get the original stake back in this?

    E.g 2pts 5/1
    =
    10pts
    or 12pts?

    A two points winner @ 5’s would return 12 and a profit of 10. To put everything in one post…

    Prix de l’Arc de Triomphe – Intello @ 7’s (WH) 2 point win
    St Ledger – Libertarian @ 6’s (L) 2 point win

    Ascot Gold Cup – Simenon @ 8’s 1 point E/W +3.00

    Prince of Wales Stakes – Al Kazeem @ 15/8 2 point win + 5.75

    Champion Hurdle – Our Conor @ 5’s 2 point win
    1000 Guineas – Joyeuse 2 points win
    Gold cup – Silviniaco Conti @ 10’s 2 point win
    – Boston Bob @ 25’s 1 point each way

    Running total
    Staked 4
    Returned 8.75
    Profit 4.75

    3 (8) compulsory and used my extra each way bet (Boston Bob).

    Hi can I change the returns on estimate to 6.5 and Al Kazeem to 5.5 and add a profit column under "return"?

    You’re

    both right. :wink:

    Estimate @ 13/2 does return 15 a profit of 13 jbale. But I think Wyldesyde’s point is the 1 point each way (-2) needs to come off that 13, so an over all TOTAL profit of +11 points for Red Rum. Still a really good start.

    You’re profit should be +11 Red Rum. We don’t get our stakes back in this competition. Just keeping tabs on you. :D

    Sorry, I thought any winning bet gets their stake returned.
    If an each way bet was to come in second, for example you get only your place stake back and your win stake is lost. We don’t get refunds for non runners though because it’s on run or not [

    or something similar

    ]. Anyway happy to count as +11 then, so long as everybody is keeping to same rules.

    Ginger, if we don’t get our stake back then horses like SPRINTER SACRE whose a best price of 1/2 with PADDY POWER for next year’s Queen Mother Chase would count as -0.50 surely any winner should count as a positive.

    P.S. If you look at Nathan’s returns his stakes are included in his workings out.

    Thanks GT and Red Rum for clearing this up. Thanks also to j’bale for pointing out my apostropherical error. It won’t be the last I suspect. :oops:
