    I also like to replace Desert Icon with Ironclad

    You've got to accentuate the positive.
    Eliminate the negative.
    Latch on to the affirmative.
    Don't mess with mister in between.

    Guys, I’m not sure what the fixture list is but I will be taking a break for Goodwood and York and return for the Breeders Cup. I will speak with talkinghorses about the Champions Day inter forum Competition but if anyone wants to take the reigns for Goodwood or York please feel free to do so. Any rules of your choice. Thanks again and well done TheKryptonFactor on a great result.

    Thanks for running this Nathan, and hope you enjoy a very well earned break. I’d be willing to run Goodwood & York under the regular rules.

    Hello to everyone and hope you are all well

    I enjoyed the competition with the new rules even though I picked the
    wrong races for the Power Play.

    Well done to the first three, proving yet again that they are good at
    selecting winners and thank you to Nathan for his hard work in running
    the thing.

    I can not recall a stranger Derby in my time, indeed the season so far
    as been in the same vein but at least we have something to enjoy and be
    involved in.

    Once again thanks :bye:
