    Just a bit of fun to run alongside the proper Royal Ascot Competition.

    Simple rules pick three horses per day to finish as close to last as possible. Yu can have as many reserves as you like and the points scores per day will be as follows

    In all races of up to 4 runners – only the last horse scores
    In all races of 5, 6 or 7 runners – the last two score
    In all races of 8 to 15 runners – the last three score
    In all races of 16 to 21 runners – the last four score
    In all races of 22 or more runners – the last five score
    *please note these places are for both handicap and no handicap
    POINTS SCORING (SP’s)
    100/1 and above – last: 2 pts – 2nd last: 1 pt – 3rd last: 1 pt
    66/1 and 80/1 – last: 4 pts – 2nd last : 2 pts – 3rd last: 1 pt
    26/1 to 50/1 – last: 8 pts – 2nd last: 4 pts – 3rd last: 3 pts – 4th last: 2 pt
    20/1 to 25/1 – last: 14 pts – 2nd last: 6 pts – 3rd last: 4 pts – 4th last : 3 pts – 5th last: 1 pt

    Evs to 11/8– last: 40 pts – 2nd last: 18 pts – 3rd last: 14 pts – 4th last: 12 pts – 5th last: 6 pts
    odds on – last: 50 pts – 2nd last: 20 pts – 3rd last: 16 pts – 4th last: 14 pts – 5th last: 7 pts

    Right up my street Raymo although not sure if I want to win this or not.. although the fancy biscuits are tempting me in.
    Foxes party rings are my favourite especially when dunked in tea and the icing goes soft B-)
