    WELCOME to our Select 3 Horses Saturday Top Tipster Competition for the FLAT SEASON, which will run through to CHAMPIONS DAY AT ASCOT, SATURDAY 17TH OCTOBER 2015 when the FLAT SEASON TOP SATURDAY TIPSTER – SELECT 3 HORSES – will be crowned.

    THE PRIZE…apart from a big pat on the back from all of us….
    will be a Racing Post Mug of your favourite horse or your can choose from the mugs available on the Injured Jockeys fund website.

    THE LEADERBOARD IS UPDATED WEEKLY AND THE RULES ARE AS FOLLOWS:-

    Select 3 horses 1 point theoretical win on each
    no more than 1 horse in a race, unless it is your reserve.
    1 selection may be napped + 3 reserves may be added

    Evens = 1 point
    2/1 to 9/4 = 2 points
    5/2 to 11/4 = 2.5 points
    3/1 to 10/3 = 3 points and so on but..
    please remember anything up to 15/8 is only 1 point
    Odds on shots = 0.5

    ***Full points if your horse dead heats***

    One horse can be napped for double points if your nap is withdrawn or a non-runner then your reserve number 1 becomes your nap.
    In the event of no napped horse being selected then your first selection will become your Nap.

    All entries must be posted before the deadlines stated each Saturday.

    NO EDITS…any changes must be posted as a separate post stating changes made.

    IF YOU FORGET YOUR NAP
    If you should forget to add a Napped Selection then your first selection will become your Nap.

    British and Irish racing only

    Hi Jac, no luck with my camera but have come across one that has a larger zoom and is chargeable via a socket as opposed to the normal battery way which means it should last a lot longer. half price at £129 which is reasonable and about the same price as my last one if I can get more than a couple of years worth out of it I will be happy, just hope it is not sold out when I pop into town.

    Sorry to hear that nobody handed in your lost camera Nathan, hope you get into town early enough to snap it up in time for your next trip to the races.
    I still haven’t upgraded my little Coolpix mini yet, but it takes a reasonably good quality photo so I can’t justify it really…let us know if you get your new camera.. :yes: Jac

    My 3 this weekend are

    3.45 Newbury : Here Comes When (NAP)

    4.35 Newmarket : Mystical Spirit

    4.40 Ripon : All About Time

    You've got to accentuate the positive.
    Eliminate the negative.
    Latch on to the affirmative.
    Don't mess with mister in between.
