Derby Meeting Competition

[raymo61]

To be fair Rob it was me that got confused no the boss!!
Last year when we went to Kingussie I nearly played at Pitlochry but could not cram it in. Glad to see you won the team comp

[raymo61]

Well played Mickyjp with a winning nap and two other winners too
Solid tipping from Tonge and BigG too to get on the podium

Plenty of wellingtons still to be played and as I said last year nobody is out of reach yet so it is still winable (if that is a proper word)

I have just inched a few points ahead in the cake comp put I know that Tracey always has a big priced winner in her pocket somewhere so that should be interesting

As always if anyone has any problems with the scoring just let me know and I will check for you.

Good luck for tomorrow folks and remember to enjoy it and don’t forget DAYLIGHT CUP for those of you that are in that too!

Well that really was an exciting race for the points today and it is all very close in the 40’s and 50’s with 6 people trying to surge forward, but no-one at the moment has managed to get anywhere near Mickeyjp who has scored a tremendous 83 points today (and without getting points for his Wellington no less!)
Many congratulations Mickeyjp for a fantastic score – you certainly do deserve that top spot!
Also well done to Tonge for coming 2nd and to BigG for taking up the final spot in 3rd

It is all very close, and as we have seen in the past, a big score out of no-where can launch you up the leader board in no time at all!

Good luck for tomorrow

Dont tend to have a good epsom so good to see doing ok for a change. Ground could be key tomorrow. Hopefully the rain stays away. Never like to see group ones with them strung out like that.

I think Chivers needs another horse in his 3.15 race
Just played his WELLINGTON solo.
