    This is getting boring. Seven seconds and a 3rd from nine races……

    Just an update how they are going after the 3rd round. Jac, triptych
    has scored the highest with 79 points, incredible from 3 races, well
    done Jac :good:

    Don’t quote me, but after the 3 I reckon Mickeyjp has just nipped
    into the lead with 163 points.

    Rummy is on his shoulder with 161

    Jac moves into 3rd spot on 140.

    I’ve still to add the Master Of The Seas/Mawj fight out, but I kow
    who likes them blue :whistle:

    More to come.

    Well by my dodgy arithmatic, the blues helped some more than others.
    Rummy had Mawj which gave him 10 points and barely keeps his lead on
    171 points.

    Jac, as expected, had the f/c and adds 26 points to be just 5 points
    behind Red Rum on 166 Points

    Mickey gave the blues a miss and sits unmoved on 163.

    Michael Welsh certainly isn’t out of it, in fact anyone who has a
    5 race run isn’t out of it, and closes with 16 points to 137.

    This could chop and change umpteen times between now and when the
    lady of robust preportions sings. Good luck :good:

    By the way, that’s the report after 4 races, I’m a race behind as there is
    a lot to mark. Bear with me :good:

    Have you ever seen anyone cooler than O’brien when it’s at the end of
    a tight race and everyone around him is jumping around like a jack in
    the box. That man has nerves of steel B-)

    Ok, he doesn’t blow bubblegum, but you get the idea.

    Ok, the roast that was on in the BigG household will be ceremonially buried
    out in the back garden tomorrow, a chinese is being ordered as a rescue.
    I may be gone some time, as someone once said. I will get it all sorted out
    later tonight. I mean, a man’s gotta eat :unsure:

    Well it might of been akin to putting your nuts in a vice marking this
    one up, but it’s been totally worth it having the great pleasure to announce
    that the winner of the TRF Breeders CUP Competition FOR 2023 is none other
    than our very own Jac (Triptich) who not only put in a superlative 2nd day
    total of 166, but all but cleaned the bookies satchels out at Newmarket
    on Friday and Saturday. Is there nothing that this woman can’t do :unsure:

    Brilliant stuff Jac, when you’ve got your eye in there’s no holding you back
    Many many congratulations :yahoo: :yahoo: :yahoo:

    There’s also the not so small matter of a framed photograph of the
    horse of your choice generously donated by Cormack. I dare say he
    will be in touch with you about that. A worthy prize going to a
    very worthy winner. :good:

    Well done to Rummy and Steve too for for getting on the podium
    with excellent scoring on both days. Knocked it out the park
    guys :good:

    Many thanks for everyone who took part, it was a terrific competition
    with a very decent turn out. It makes it all the more enjoyable when
    we have so many shrewd punters prepared to take the time, and to sit up
    till all hours. Many thanks to one and all :good:

    First of all top stuff Graham :good: :good: :good: We know how tough it is to run a normal competition without all the bells and whistles of powerplays and the like :good: :good:
    AND to have it finishing late at night too cannot help :wacko: :wacko: So once again well done Graham :good: :good: :good:

    Well done Jac and the runners up. Was good fun and thank you to BigG for running it.

    The things I want most in life are the things that I can't win.

    Thanks to BigG for running this competition and to Jac aka TRIPTYCH great knowledge and well deserved victory. Well done to Steve in runner up spot. For myself I simply got lucky.

    The best things in life are free.
    But you can give them to the birds and bees.
