Glorious Goodwood Competition 2024

[Triptych]

Best of luck Graham and lovely to hear you got to talk to your grandson Alex today. I bet he could come on here and run rings round all of us.
Like you I’m burning the midnight oil tonight and I’ve picked all my horses but waiting to see if those predicted thunderstorms come overnight. So far in deepest Essex all is calm so fingers crossed and best of luck on day 3. Jac

Graham your columns are a work of art now I would have no idea how to put something like that together but hope it makes life a bit easier totting up our scores today. Thanks again for all the effort you are putting into this and the great updates yesterday including some drama with the disqualified Jabaara. …onwards to Day 3 which looks a tricky one as I have a few heart on my sleeve horses running here, Sky Lantern’s baby in the first and Sea The Fire (her hardest task to date). Looking forward to it.

Best of luck with them Jac, it is (another) tricky day, and I thought yesterday
was tough

[BigG]

Illavim, apologies, all sorted

[Illavim]

Many thanks BigG, much appreciated.
Just spotted that Sisyphean is running in the 1.50, may be a TRF plunge on that horse as keeping the scores and columns straight is a Sisyphean task !

[MRSRAYMO]

Graham – you are doing a fine job with those columns! I hope you got some sleep last night?!! I use a free downloadable version similar to Microsoft word which is called Open Office and the leaderboard is set up as a spreadsheet which I fill in and then copy and paste into this message box. As you know, when people get more than 100 it starts to mess up the columns, but the other thing I do is to make sure that there are the same number of wiggly characters (don’t know their proper name!! ) between each column. If there was some way of sending you the actual spreadsheet, I would, but if you don’t have Open Office then the columns might still be all over the place Not teaching my Grandmother to suck eggs of course, and like Jac says a simple daily final total would be absolutely fine.

Please forgive me if I am sounding like a school m’am – that was not my intention.
