    WELCOME to our Select 3 Horses Saturday Top Tipster Competition, which will run through to CHAMPIONS DAY AT ASCOT 15th October 2016… 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 Jockey. :heart:

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

    YOUR 3 X HORSES CAN BE CHOSEN FROM FLAT, ALL WEATHER & JUMPS MEETINGS

    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***
    Disqualified horses are counted as a loser.

    One horse can be napped for double points if your nap is withdrawn or a non-runner then your reserve number 1 becomes your nap.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

    As promised here are a few pictures from my visit to see Frankel at Banstead Manor Stud last Thursday.
    He looks amazing and was on his best behaviour for his army of admirers :heart: …Jac




    It’s a beautiful place to visit if you get the chance, in the last picture Frankel stands outside his stable with the man who brought him into the world Jim Power (2nd left) and Shane Featherstonaugh his work rider at Warren Place who paid a surprise visit that day.. :rose:

    A Special special horse Jac!!! Will hopefully put my picks up tomorrow night after I get back from Newmarket. Will be there Saturday too so my picks will all be from there and looks like we need a miracle to catch the leaders in this comp but we are both doing well in the handicap one!!

    @ Big G… Thanks Graham he was that close in that 3rd photo that I wanted to reach out and touch him but sadly we weren’t allowed…
    It was a really special day and thank goodness the pics came out unlike my videos LOL I’ll have to go back next year and redo them, think I can manage that ;)

    Nathan you must be very proud of your stepson wish him well in his passing out. :good:
    Looking forward to seeing Lady Aurelia on Saturday but like you have a fancy that Queen Kindly might handle the course better than her American cousin..fingers crossed. :rose:

    Raymo will look out for you at Newmarket on Saturday :good: :good: I’ll be hanging around the pre-parade and paddock so we might bump into each other.
    We all need a bit of luck in this comp so will be trying for a 50/1 Nap in the Cambridgeshire…trying being the operative word.. :yes:

    Best of luck whatever you’re up to this weekend..Jac :heart:
