SELECT 3 HORSES to win on Saturday 23rd December – Christmas Present Week

[Triptych]

SPECIAL CHRISTMAS PRESENT EDITION FOR ALL PLAYERS

Two days before Christmas and I thought it would be nice to give all players an early Christmas Present and for those still in the starting stalls a chance to break free:-
FOR THIS SATURDAY ONLY any player selecting any horse that places with an SP of 4/1 or over, within his/hers main 3 Selections, will receive a quarter of those odds as points towards their score this week.

Points will be awarded to nearest whole point or half a point (no quarter points etc)
Reserves are not included unless they substitute for a non runner.
(Naps will not count on placed selections of 4/1 or over)

HAVE A VERY MERRY CHRISTMAS
Jac X
