4 selection’s Per Person, plus reserves (as many as you like)

**NO unamed favourites, second favourites etc.

**Also selections need to be named and not just posting the racecard numbers of selections

**Also you cannot nominate the same horse more than once, if you do it will only be scored once

**Also a reserve selection for the selected Nap race or any other race, does not automatically become the Nap selection, it is still a reserve selection

more than one selection from the same race is acceptable

Selections must come from SATURDAYS racing ONLY

Selections must be from NH and or Flat racing in the UK and Ireland ONLY (NOT FROM ABROAD)

Selections must come from HORSERACING ONLY, not Point-to-Point, greyhound racing, pigeon racing, the world tiddlywinks championship, the highland games, X Factor or even Strictly Come Dancing!

**NO EDITING, PLEASE MAKE A NEW POST**

No selecting horses after the Advertised off time of the race, even if the race is late starting

The cut off time for entries will be posted each week. I wiil try and keep this consistent and reasonable for most if not the whole of the season, and will make it a time so that competitors have a chance to post an entry.
The cut-off time for entries for the whole of this season will be 3.30pm

PLEASE NOTE, I’M SORRY BUT NO ENTRY OR ALTERATION TO YOUR ENTRY WILL BE ACCEPTED IF POSTED AFTER THE CUT OFF TIME**

**IN THE EVENT OF A DEAD HEAT FULL POINTS WILL AWARDED TO BOTH (OR MORE) HORSES**

BANKER/NAP SELECTIONS You can nominate one of your 4 main selections as a Banker/Nap, if you forget to do so then the first horse you selected will be classed as your Banker/Nap, either from top to bottom or from left to right. If your Banker/Nap wins then your points for that horse will be doubled, but only if it WINS, points will not be doubled if it finishes 2nd, 3rd or 4th. If your selected Banker/Nap is a non-runner then your first horse selected will automatically become your Banker/Nap. If that is a non- runner then your next selected and so on, ie. Horse 1 Horse 2 Horse 3 (BANKER/NAP) Horse 4 1st res 2nd res an so on if for example horse 3 (your Banker/Nap) was a non-runner then horse 1 would automatically become your Banker/Nap (unless a NB has been nominated at the time of posting )
If your nap is a non runner or a nap selection has not been nominated, you cannot nominate another of your selections as your nap if an earlier selection as already run

*NAP/BANKER Selections must be clearly marked as your Nap/Banker selection…A selection posted in Capitals or highlighted in bold, if not stated as your Nap/Banker selection is not automatically your Nap/Banker selection unless it is your first selection and no other selection has been nominated as your Nap/Banker*

In the event of any disputes, my decision is final

This competition is open to anyone there is no need to declare yourself before hand

Right, I hope I’ve covered everything

Thanks and the very best of luck to all
Bob
