    Hi guys.

    Davidbrady hasn’t got the time over the Summer to run a Group 1 Flat competition, so i have suggested that i run the competition, so that a competition still runs.

    The 1st fixtures will be this weekend with the Guineas (1000 and 2000) at Newmarket.

    The competition thread will be put up in the relevant thread shortly.

    Thanks.

    Gareth.

    Superb! Looking forward to it.

    Thanks, Gaz, hope running the comp doesn’t put the jinx on you and that you repeat your success of last year!

    Could I see a copy of the rules please, so that I know whether I should be going for short-priced winners, or long-priced place horses.

    Also, I’m only entering the competition on the understanding that everyone knows in advance that I am useless at G1s.

    My problem with the picking 4 horses each Saturday competition is that I would forget about it. I’m toying with the idea of submitting all my G1 selections in one go. edit: Oh, I forgot about the 2yo races.

    Cheers for running this gaz, should be good craic.

    Thats race specific rather than rules specific gerald, some races outsdiers wont even get a look in, and some have seriously overpriced horses winning or placing, depends on the race really.

    I think Gerald is questioning whether its number of winners or profit per level stake that will determine the winner.

    So if Rainbow View wins the 1000 at Evens is that 1 winner to everyone who selected it or is it +1 to level stake?

    Can there not be some kinda rule that people can get the price they’ve actually backed with a regular bookie (via screenshot proof or whatever). Some people get a good price on certain horses, only for the SPs to be alot shorter.

    For the competition is it either 2pts win or 1pt each way?

    Are those the options?

    Aye Doug, you can just say win or e/w beside your selection.
