    Well any hope of this running like a swiss watch are out the window as I’ve been brought
    off the subs bench to run this one. I’ll give it my best but be advised, check you scores.
    It’s a fabulous meeting so we’ll have fun anyway. I’ve copied the Sainted Raymo’s compy
    layout and I’m happy to go with that. Good luck :good:

    Rules

    You select 1 horse in each race over the course of the meeting
    In one race per day you can select 2 horses
    You may chose 1 nap per day (please make clear)
    NAP selections score double for WIN ONLY
    You can pick a next best (NB) as a reserve for your Nap in case of being a non runner
    If Nap is a N/R and your NB is a non runner the reserve of your Nap will become the Nap.
    (no reserve no nap) No Nap your first selection in the first race of the day will become your nap

    Entries have to be in before first race of each day, if for whatever reason you are late
    post your entries still for later races which will be accepted but you will get hit with
    10% point deduction for that day Strictly no Edits after the off time of 1st race, all
    points on that day will be deducted You may included as many reserves as you like but
    cannot add any after the time of the first race

    Great to hear you are taking this one on Graham.. :good: It will be great fun as always.

    If it helps I can put up the scores for the first day (Tuesday) so you can get a head start with concentrating on some winners and enjoy the racing more that day.🐎🏆

    After that I don’t really have a free day with schools being on holiday and Newmarket on Saturday..Jac :bye:

    Nice one BigG I won’t trouble you too much by scoring lots of points :whistle:

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

    Thanks guys, you’re all very welcome. Jac that would be great if you could do the scores
    on Tuesday. I go for my pre-op on Monday so it will break me in gently on Tuesday. I get
    my op on Sunday 4th August, so this will keep my mind off that :good:

    Yes it’s been a good couple of weeks for me Landafar, but you know what this game’s like,
    it can turn sour very quickly. I’ll give it my best shot though, I love the Goodwood meeting.
    Best of luck to you Landafar, it might just be your week :good:

    Your welcome Graham it’s a marathon 5 days and it will give you the chance to study up (not that you need too).
    Best of luck with the pre-op on Monday we’ll be thinking of you. :rose: Jac
