Well done Euroalien. Thanks for running the competition Raymos.
May 3, 2026 at 19:38 #1765948Well done Euroalien and those filling the places
I was hoping to stay in the top 3 but if you don’t hit the big ones you just know on here plenty will do
Thank you as always to the Raymo’s on such a well drilled precise operation
Enjoy the deserved cakesGaelic Warrior Gold Cup Winner 2026
May 3, 2026 at 22:18 #1765957Congratulations Euroalien for a fantastic win, and mega thanks as ever to the Raymos for their hard work and super efficient running of the competition
May 3, 2026 at 23:57 #1765962Thanks Everyone! I’m shocked
but very happy.
My Wellington paid off big time. (Yes, I’m a big fan Raymo). Congrats to Raymo & Catherine (Tonge) for some great selections over the three days, for making the podium & keeping it close!Huge thanks to Raymo and Tracey for running this competition like a well oiled machine. Looking forward to the next one.
May 4, 2026 at 00:57 #1765963Oh shoot, I wish I had done this earlier. I counted up my final day’s
score and I’ve been wrong before but I think it came to 50, not 42.
Perhaps you could give it a 2nd look.2.20 Cathedral 2nd 9/2 ….. 8 points
2.50 Align The Stars 2nd 13/2…. 8 points
4.10 Efsixteen 1st 11/4 *nap*…. 28 points
5.20 Sahara King 2nd 9/4…. 6 pointsTotal 50 points.
Sorry if this upsets the applecart a bit
May 4, 2026 at 09:07 #1765968Graham I am so sorry you are right I missed the 8points for Cathedral!!
Overall that makes you tied third with Tonge

I am not sure Tracey could have fitted two people on the podium graphic but once again apologies and to be honest I tried so hard to be accurate at the end due to the scores being so close and counted all the scores at least three times but must have had a blind spot.
I am sorry if it spoiled the end for you and I have no excuse
May 4, 2026 at 09:09 #1765969I’ll also include joint 3rd into the roll of honour
Well done BigG and TongeGaelic Warrior Gold Cup Winner 2026
May 4, 2026 at 09:14 #1765971So as an afterthought both the winner and the third get a detention for being late !!!
May 4, 2026 at 09:20 #1765973
So sorry this has happened Graham
Have a look back to the leaderboard and graphic and you will now see your name in joint third place.
I pondered over trying to fit another “person” on the 3rd box, but thought that might be a bit of a squash!!! So I hope what I have done is acceptable.
Maybe that is something I need to look into for future competitions – perhaps I could try two very thin people???!!!
Once again, many apologies.May 4, 2026 at 11:48 #1765979Please don’t worry about it Raymo and Tracy, I was more concerned about
raising it in case it caused a fuss after a tremendous competition. .
I know from experience your head is birling by the last day so don’t think
about it at all.The main thing is that you two are superb at running these
competitions, all I had to do was sit on my derriere and enjoy the racing.
Thanks so much again
