    It’s come around really quickly and here are the 7 races that make up Meydan Festival Thursday for 18th February 2021

    https://www.racingpost.com/racecards/1231/meydan/2021-02-18/778335

    There are at this moment 15 Godolphin runners spread across 6 of the 7 races on Thursday which enticingly consist of..
    (not in order)…

    Group 3 – (dirt) UAE Oaks
    Group 2 – Meydan Sprint (Turf)
    Group 2 – Zabeel Mile (Turf)

    Group 2 – Fillies & Mares (Turf)
    Listed Handicap (Dirt)

    1st Race – Handicap (dirt)

    So use those swaps carefully and good luck.
    Remember you can swap just one or two of your horses or take the whole lot out and replace them that will only count as one swap, but please check them carefully before pressing the confirm button as your swaps will be locked in from that moment. B-)
    Sorry if I sound like I’m preaching to the converted but don’t want any of us to lose valuable swaps this week..

    Have fun..Jac :bye:

    We have a Bonus Race in the 3.40 tomorrow. Three
    horses to sort out,
    Desert Peace
    Dubai Icon
    Real World

    At least they have given us a bit of warning this time so hopefully they are putting
    their house in order :good:

    Many Thanks BigG for your post about Bonus Race. I had almost given up on there
    being another chance to earn extra Points. I am sure Jac will also be pleased.

    All the best to all entries
    John :bye:

    :mail: NON RUNNER
    LAZULI
    3.05 MEYDAN :mail:

    I’d already included him and pressed confirm only to find out he wasn’t running.. :wacko:

    I expect one or two of us would have done the same..that’ll teach me to check the runners before I press confirm stable. Plenty of other chances today but a shame that Lazuli was the only Godolphin entry in that race.. :unsure:

    Best of luck today everyone and with the Bonus Race which looks a tricky contest.

    Jac
    :bye:

    I did the same with Lazuli Jac!! How annoying. :-( Oh well, we’ll just have to sweep the other six races.

    I’m another Lazuli fail Jac, I put mine all in last night. That’ll teach me,

    I remember :unsure:

    Hello to eveyone

    Like BigG I made my swap on Wednesday and included Lazuli in my 10.

    No luck in the Bonus Race which sometimes seems easy to solve but turns
    out to be more difficult. Let down by Desert Peace who I also had in my 10.

    Still scored 860 Points giving me a total of 3100 and a place of 396. Also
    have 3 swaps left.

    Would say the scoring was 6.5/10 but have enjoyed the afternoon and along
    with the better weather and the return of the jumpers, along with my first
    vaccine jab yesterday things looks slighty brighter.

    Looking forward to Cheltenham and the Spring.

    All the best
    John :good: :good:

    1500 points today which included 200 points for Frankie on Dubai Icon
    in the bonus race. That puts me up to 3780 points and position 235 with
    3 swaps left.

    Good to hear you got your 1st jab John, I’m still waiting on mine
    but I should be on the next batch.

    Cheers everyone :good:
