Thanks Nathan..
I didn’t expect to win it this year as I did minimal homework just went with the draw and past form of trainers .. Didn’t realise I was the last winner in 2023.If I win it next year do I get to keep it❓️ 🏆 ✨️ 🤣😂
Jac xThings turn out best for those who make the best of how things turn out...November 4, 2025 at 00:34 #1743779Thanks Andre and Nathan re my golf exploits, it only came about on a set
of coincidences you just could hardly believe. It makes a big change from
the Bank of Dad (over the years), my boy getting me a grand
(Well ok £500 after a fair distribution)Jac, just saw the Breeders Cup results, I wondered if we ever would
What a great way to bow out of the flat season
November 4, 2025 at 14:48 #1743830Thanks Graham
..no one more surprised than I was to win it again..I really rushed through it all as you know I was away Friday and Saturday night but it was fantastic seeing then all roll up like that on Saturday night…I thought I had a chance but was certain Goodfellow had it with his amazing Ethical Diamond pick.. 
Right I’m off to gather the Godolphin Fantasy Competition results together now…back in 15 minutes…

FINAL SCORES
– Tuesday 4th November 2025Very close contest between myself and Andre but on Breeders Cup night my final points on Rebel’s Romance, Notable Speech and El Cordobes edged me into the lead…Well played Andre, Graham and John…so frustrating that we had just the one Bonus Race
it seems very biased towards those more in the loop..but hey it just for fun and it’s extremely difficult to break into the top 100.. 
Here at last is the final leaderboard…Apologies for getting back late with this … unbelievably just as I logged off this afternoon our power went down and it’s only just come back on.

TRIPTYCH (Jac)– 15080 points– 190th
Euroalien (Andre) – 14490 points – 224th
BigG (Graham) – 10110 Points – 460th
John Gooch – ? Points – ? –I’ll try to find John’s final result … if not perhaps you could update us John…many thanks and well done everyone, sorry this has been a bit hit and miss this year.
..Jac xThings turn out best for those who make the best of how things turn out...November 4, 2025 at 19:09 #1743843Well I went back to the Godolphin competition site and it is completely swiped..nothing about the winner and no way to find our John’s missing points.

However, there is a ….
Brand New competition starting this Friday November 7th and a chance to pick a completely new stable and win a Revel’s Romance cap.
JacThings turn out best for those who make the best of how things turn out...November 5, 2025 at 14:47 #1743913Wow!! Well done Jac
Winning back to back Breeders Cup comps!! What a second day you had! I hope you backed a few of them!
I wish I had seen (or paid more attention) and I would have picked Ethical Diamond for sure. I saw that Willie Mullins was at Del Mar but I didn’t put two and two together 
Well done winning our Godolphin comp too!
You’ve had that one won for awhile…. I was always a step behind! I can’t believe they are starting another one this week…. they could do so much more with that comp, and I’m honestly a little surprised they keep it going as they don’t seem to care that much about it.My life revolves around candles for a few more weeks (mid-December) then I might get to watch some live racing on a Saturday/Sunday…. anxiously awaiting a few of my TTF stable to have their first runs.
I hope everyone is doing well!
November 6, 2025 at 05:53 #1743934Good Morning – I hope that everybody are well and safe.
Jac from memory I think that I finished 282nd in the
Godolphin Competition but cannot remember my total number
of points.I must be honest and say that I lost interest when there
where no more Bonus Races.
At this stage I may decide not to become involved in the new
competition,and to concentrate on the various Jumping options
that are available.Thank You
November 6, 2025 at 18:45 #1743958Hello John..
I believe you’re right about your placing of 282nd as I know you were doing really well toward the end of the competition .. I went straight back to the site to pick up your final score and they had wiped all the scores with not a mention of the winner.
I understand why you think you might not continue with the next one at this stage and I too am going to give it a swerve until it gets nearer the Dubai World Cup..I remember the fiasco at the start of this competition last year when Tonge lost one of her swaps because of a mix up..I’ll give it a few weeks and see how it goes..If you did play you can always come here and report how you are doing and chat about the Bonus races…or lack of

Good luck for the jumps season John and keep in touch with us all…Best wishes..Jac
xThings turn out best for those who make the best of how things turn out...November 6, 2025 at 23:09 #1743971Well done for getting off to a flyer in Bobby’s TRF competition with Il Etait Temps Andre
You can take a deap breath now you’ve got your first horse home and dry. He is also in my Silver Army along with Resplendent Grey who won Tuesday…Il Etait Temps is going to be an exciting horse to follow this season. 
Winning the Breeders Cup was amazing and thanks for your good wishes.

Hope all is well with yourself and Marjorie Graham.
All the best of luck for your horses in Bobby’s TTF abd all the comps coming up this weekend.

So no sleep for meNovember 7, 2025 at 23:30 #1744053Best of luck Darren.. keep wide awake
👁👁 👍Best of luck to all in the comps tomorrow..last big race of the flat and I’ve gone for …
Grey Cuban to scoot home 18/1 and Oneforthegutter 25/1 both EWI know 3yo’s don’t have a good record in the race but I will have a win only bet on Atherstone Warrior who I really like and have been following..

Look out for Roach Power at Donny tomorrow, he won in good style at Newmarket last Friday. He’s a beautuful looking grey with a terrific turn of foot. He’s my Nap in Select 3 Horses.❤️
Best of luck to all.
JacThings turn out best for those who make the best of how things turn out...November 8, 2025 at 12:38 #1744107You’re off to a great start in the TTF comp Jac – well done! Yes, I was happy to get some points on the board early. Il Etait Temps will be very exciting this year. Fingers crossed we can both keep getting plenty of points from our horses!
Ahhh yes, the last day of flat racing…… with some big fields at Doncaster, in heavy going. Throw a dart or two at the racecard to find a winner or two
Good Luck with your nap! It’s always interesting when you tell us about a horse you saw at Newmarket. I always have a soft spot for a good grey horse.Good Luck Everyone with your bets and comp selections!
November 13, 2025 at 10:14 #1744343Hello all from sunny (not) Dunoon Hospital. I’ve been in for a week but might get out today or tomorrow. Just in time for my Saturday competitions. Hope you guys are all well and great start to your TTF Jac. I don’t even know if I’ve had a runner, this is my 1st time on the phone. I better have a check
November 13, 2025 at 15:57 #1744359I see one of my TTF, Mydaddypaddy, did a really nice run at Carlisle the other day. Impressive I’d say

At least I’m on the boards now
November 13, 2025 at 16:03 #1744360Mydaddypaddy went fav for the Supreme hurdle after that race BigG although I’m sure it will change multiple times throughout the months
Get well soon 🙏Charles Darwin to conquer the World
November 13, 2025 at 16:30 #1744362Thanks Nathan.No doubt Nathan they will fluctuate, but I was impressed the way he was in another league to the rest. The question is, how good are the rest
November 13, 2025 at 17:02 #1744370Hi Graham and thanks for the encouragement from yourself and Andre for my ‘miraculous’ quick start scoring on Bobby’s TTF with my ‘Silver Army’
So sorry to hear you are again back in the grips of the NHS and Dunoon hospital and hope things are going well and you will soon be back home again feeling much better.

Your horse Mydaddypaddy has made a very promising start and as Nathan says has a high class entry for the Festival in March
also great to see Andre scoring with Il Etait Temps who happens to be in my stable also along with L’eau Du Sud who takes on the great Jonbon in the Schloer Chase tomorrow. 
Hope you get better soon Graham and good luck with the competitions this weekend.
