[Refuse To Bend]

Well done Dessie

The more I know the less I understand.

[MRSRAYMO]

[raymo61]

Some of us never got a head of steam up Jac

But well done to lead for so long

[Triptych]

Thanks Raymo..I didn’t realise I had made the Podium ..really happy with that and well played Silent Assassins too in 2nd.
Dessie knocked it out of the park on days 3 & 4..A well deserved winner. Jac

Things turn out best for those who make the best of how things turn out...

[raymo61]

First of all well done Dessie and you topped it off with the last winner just to make sure and like you say ten years since the last time you won big congrats

Silent Assassins well done too been in second for three days and just couldn’t get your head in front but so consistent

Triptych in front for so long but just didn’t quite get up that Cheltenham hill but good stuff to get on the podium

And mentions must be made regarding Beau Ranger and BigG for scoring in the seventies on the final day

Any problems with your scores let me know and I will check them.

Finally the cake race has been won but we both rather fell over the line with some poor tipping and must try harder as my teacher used to say.
Thanks all and hope you all enjoyed it

[Ex RubyLight]

Well done to everyone, especially Dessie and once again many thanks to the Raymos for running the competition.

[broadsword]

Tremendous fun as always, huge thanks to the Raymos for running such a brilliant competition.

Many congratulations Dessie73, superb tipping over the four days. You’ve gone straight into the notebook for the 2036 edition…

Congratulations to the others on the podium, in such a big field that’s a terrific result.

[MRSRAYMO]

Many congratulations Dessie73 – you saved your best day till last! A brilliant score and a winning Welly AND a winning NAP to boot (excuse the pun!)

Silent Assassins – I think you have put a bit of superglue onto that 2nd place on the podium – you got up there on day 2 and have not moved since then! Really well done for hanging in there!

Finally, well done Jac (Triptych) for such a valiant effort. You ran away with a massive score on the first day and they really did struggle to catch you up, but unfortunately your superglue melted at the 11th hour and trickled down to the 3rd place spot on the podium! That is no mean feat!

Special mention to BigG and Beauranger for their fantastic scores today!

Well, I hope everyone has enjoyed what proved to be another exciting competition and hopefully we will all meet up again for the Grand National meeting. Thank you to all who took part.

[TheTinMan87]

Thanks for running again and well done to those on the podium and of course the winner
