    All I can see is “There are currently no bonus races to take part in”. Does that mean I missed the boat ? Only just realised it’s Thursday :-(

    Hello to everyone.

    I still do not understand the Meydan form, but I think I am learning how to score
    in this competiion. Three winners this afternoon and 200 Points from the Bonus Race.

    Not quite how I thought the results would work out but a total of 1310 Points is still
    OK. This now gives me 4410 Points and a Poition of 332 with still 2 swaps left for the last
    2 Weeks. Not quite good enougth to put me on top, but still an enjoyable afternoon along with
    events in the Test Match.

    Hope you are all keeping well and this lockdown will end soon.

    John :bye:

    Oh dear Diamond Geezer I think you left it too late as BigG found out the other week, you need to enter at least 45 minutes before the race which was 3.05 today.

    Last two meetings take place on a Saturday and there will be lots of points available..I’ll give fair warning before the big days. :good:

    Thanks for your points DG..I’ll get the leaderboard together sometime :yahoo: tomorrow. :good: Jac

    Exactly the same score as you Jac, the only difference between
    our teams is that I had Dream Castle in my non scoring 3 whereas
    you had Light And Dark.

    1710 Points today, 5490 Points overall and in position 143 :good:

    Thanks for your updates Nathan and Tonge..looks like we’re all moving up the Leaderboard this week and well done with the Bonus points they certainly make a difference .

    Nathan like you said we’re virtually neck and neck on here and the Godolphin Leaderboard. With all of us having 2 swaps left it’s going to be dependant on those Group races and Bonus points. :good:

    Just waiting on Mincamus, Silent Assassins, Nick and Steve for their points update.

    Congratulations to Graham (BigG) this week for being JOINT TOP SCORER along with myself Triptych(barring latecomers ;-) ) with a fantastic 1710 points including 200 Bonus Points a piece. :yahoo: Nathan and Tonge also put in high scores and scored Bonus Points and Euroalian (Andre) and John Gooch also put in decent scores with John predicting the Bonus Race result and both not that far behind the leaders.
    silent assassins was the highest riser this week 170 places up the Godolphin Leaderboard. :good:

    Diamond Geezer missed out on the Bonus Race this week and is our only player to be losing points but I don’t think the swaps have been going in for DG looking at his team on the Godolphin Leaderboard there was only Master Of The Seas and the other 9 horses were from past weeks. Just swap all those horses out next week DG and put as many Godolphin runners in as you can manage spread across the card..that should get the points coming in. :good:

    CONGRATULATIONS again to our Graham (BIGG) you are currently on Page 3 of the Sun Godolphin Leaderboard ;-) and number one scorer here for our 6th week. :yahoo:
    Triptych (Jac) has flip flopped with Nathan for 2nd place with just 10 points between us and Tonge is now in 4th position ahead of Andre, John Gooch and Mincamus..

    Just TWO SATURDAYS LEFT NOW until the competition ends…

    Saturday 6th March – Super Saturday worth 1.7 million
    Saturday 27th March – Dubai World Cup Saturday

    So a little break now to sharpen our lucky pins and hope that not too many of our favourite Godolphin horses run in the same races (nightmare to decide who to choose :wacko: )
    There will be lots of Group 1 races coming up so use those swaps wisely and the points will come rolling in.

    See you on the 6th March (will report any Bonus Races when spotted, or if anyone spots them first please fell free to post up here).

    Best of luck
    Jac :rose:

    Thanks for the update Jac, although I nearly chocked on my cornflakes
    at the thought of me on page 3 of the Sun. Mind you, after a few glasses
    of prosecco and a couple of Glenmorangies (very large ones) :whistle:

    It’s pretty tight at the top, it could easily go down to one horse tipping
    the balance, or a bit of luck with a bonus race. Maybe Tonge’s double swap
    system on the last day might be the killer blow. So many in with a good
    shout, it could go any way :unsure:
