The alternative race was nearly cancelled itself. Because I’m at work most Saturday I will not be able to post a further alternative race, unless someone deputize for me. This is why I post a race and an all weather alternative on Thursday night.

Anyway six of us found winners this week.

Steve found the actual winner and the fourth placed too and scored a combined 243.75 points.

Steve’s new score is his old score (-275) minus his stake unit of (100) then adding his winnings of (243.75) giving a score of -131.25 points.

Wyldesyde also found this week’s winner but as his EW choice, still that’s a earning of 135.94 points.

Wyldesyde new score = old score (-606.25) – stake unit (100) + winnings (135.94) = -570.31 points.

Both Robnorth and myself scored with the runner up, Mr Baloo (the best priced horse in the frame). Which earned us 137.50 points.

Robnorth’s new score = old score (+200) – stake (100) + winnings (137.50) = +237.50

Red Rum77’s new score is old score (-525) – stake (100) + winnings (137.50) =-487.50

Nathan Hughes and Mike2084 are the others to earn points this week with 56.25 and 50 points respectfully.

Nathan’s new score is old score (-393.75) – stake (100) + winnings (56.25) = -437.50 points

Mike2084 new score is old score (+246.88) – stake (100) + winnings (50) = +196.88 points

You've got to accentuate the positive.
Eliminate the negative.
Latch on to the affirmative.
