    It’s 85/40 to 4/1

    You are of course right Mike. I copied the odds from last year’s competition.
    I think everyone knew that anything over 2/1 and up to 4/1 fits that bracket,
    but seeing as it’s you, I’ll change it on the board :good:

    Landafar you are spot on with the power plays and very
    well organised to get both days on. Just keep a check
    before it starts on Friday for any non runners, just
    in case any of yours have done a runner. Once the
    competition starts, no changes, even n/r’s allowed
    Any change, make a new post, don’t fix your original
    post.

    The very best of luck to you :good:

    To be honest Bobby (VTC) the “Power Play” isn’t one I would have thought
    up, but with taking the horns of this with just a few days to go, and
    never having run this competition, I took the easy (coward’s) way out
    of copying last year’s competition rules rather than rejigging it.
    Obviously as you are well aware you are at a disadvantage with no PP,
    happy to add it in if you want.

    If I’m put in to bat next year, I’d probably revert it to a straight
    1 horse in all bar 1 race with 2, and 1 nap. Set in my ways I am :scratch:

    Hey everyone – I’ll put up a framed photo of your favourite flat horse of 2023 as a prize – if I don’t have your fav we’ll work through your list until we find one you like.

    BUT I intend winning it myself so…second place will get the prize in that very likely case!

    Good luck all and big thanks to Big G.
