    I’ll put this in here and hopefully there is enough response that we can run a TRF league.
    The tapes go up at 11am on the 14th November and the competition concludes after racing on
    24th April. In case anyone is worried about putting in a stable early in case any of their
    horses get injured, you are allowed to change the horses in your stable as many times as you
    want right up until the off.

    Stables cost £5 each, but you also have the option to submit a free stable, whether you buy any
    stables or not. Just a word of warning if, like me, you are submitting a couple of paid stables
    and the free one. Last year whichever stable you 1st put into the league was the only one you were
    permitted to have in the league, so pick your strongest one. It’s definitely not the most punter
    friendly sites, we had problems working it out last year and previously, so anyone having problems
    don’t be shy about asking for help, we were pulling our hair out a couple of years ago but I think
    I’ve got the hang of it now.

    Points are awarded to horses for winning and placing in their races throughout the season. The better
    the grade of race, the more points on offer. There is a prize for the winner which is dependant on the
    total pool. Last year’s winner netted a cool £173.000. There is also a monthly prize of £10,000. The
    prize money is reduced for the free entry, although £5000 outright, and £1,000 monthly is not to be
    sniffed at.

    Bonus Racing and Scoring

    Regular Points: Group 1 win – 25 points, Group 2 – 20 points, Group 3 – 15 points, Listed – 12 points, Any other race – 10 points.
    Points will also be awarded from returns of a £1 each-way bet on the Tote in each race a horse runs in. Example: £1 win at 5.50 + £1 place at 1.20 = 6.70 points awarded
    Bonus races: Betfair Chase, Ladbrokes Trophy (Hennessy), Tingle Creek, King George VI, Welsh National, Savills Chase (Leopardstown Lexus Chase), Irish Champion Hurdle, Irish Gold Cup, Betfair Hurdle (formerly Tote Gold Trophy, Schweppes etc),
    Arkle, Champion Hurdle, Queen Mother Champion Chase, RSA Chase, World Hurdle, Ryanair Chase, County Hurdle, Gold Cup, Betfred Bowl, Aintree Hurdle, Melling Chase, Liverpool Stayers Hurdle, Grand National, Irish National, Scottish National, Bet365 Celebration Chase
    Bonus Race Points: Additional 25 points for a win, 12 points for finishing 2nd.

    The legue name is theracingforum
    The entry Pin Code is 000080

    I’ll update on here how the league is doing. I did suggest to them last year that they might consider
    a League Of leagues competition, and perhaps a prize for the top scoring League. This seems to have
    fallen on deaf ears. As long as we get sufficient entries, I’ll stick up a prize for our winner. I’ll
    wait until nearer the off time when I can judge what might be appropriate and post it up in due course.
    One stipulation which I wish to make clear now, is that the prizes can only go to someone who is a
    registered member here. I’m not dissuading anyone who reads the forum from entering, I have no control
    over that in any case, and I’m not trying to drum up new members, but I need to be able to contact the
    winner and I can only do that if I can send them a message. Any person not currently a member, and
    wishing to be considered for any prize, must be registered before the tapes go up on 14th November 2020.

    I’m sure there are other bits and pieces I should have brought up, but that will do for now.
    Best of luck to all that have a go :good:

    Only 6 days to go until the start of the Tote ten To Follow Jumps competition
    gets underway. I see a few well-kent faces have made an appearance, and good to
    see them back. Remember that you can put in a stable and change it as many times
    as you like before the off deadline of 11am on Saturday 14th November.

    I’ll stick up £50 for the league winner and depending on numbers
    (over 20) I’ll have a prize for runner up.

    Remember that there is a free stable whether you want to buy a stable or not, so
    no point in not throwing your hat into the ring.

    Good luck all :good:

    He’ll be a big loss this season Inthestream, he was a major contender.
    Glad you’ve got them sorted out. I’ve gone for 3 paid entries and the
    free one. Best of luck mate :good:

    Welcome Kendicate, always good to have new blood in the forum.
    Best of luck with your stable :good:

    Glad you got your 10 Dark Angels sorted out Jac, I see still no room for
    Bristol De Mai, that was a hard decision. A good looking bunch though, I
    think you’re in with a good shout there :good:
