    Starts Thursday 6th April

    Winner

    The person with the highest overall score from the 3 days. If tied combined scores of 3 naps, if still tied highest score in Grand National, if still tied highest day 1 score, still tied day 2 etc. If still tied a dead-heat will be announced.

    Rules

    2 Selections in 1 race, 1 in the rest:

    Each day you pick 2 selections in 1 race of your choice and 1 selection per race in all other races, plus reserves in case of non-runners (please do not edit posts after the start of the first race if you need to make any alterations make a new post).

    Nap Selection:

    Pick 1 nap per day, if your nap wins it scores double points. double points are awarded for win only (placed nap selections count as normal points)

    All Selections for the day should be posted before the first race. The odd time when someone forgets to post until after the first race could be allowed at the scorer’s discretion (obviously selections for races already run do not count)… but do not make a habit of doing so. A 20% deduction will be taken from late entry’s on individual days

    Points are scored for:

    Under 5 runners – Winner only to count.
    5-7 – Winner and 2nd.
    8-15 – Winner, 2nd and 3rd.
    16+ – Winner, 2nd, 3rd and 4th.
    Grand National points will include 5th and 6th place.

    POINTS SCORING (SP’s)

    1/2 or shorter – 1st: 2 pts – 2nd: 1 pt – 3rd: 1 pt – 4th: 0 pts

    8/15 to 10/11 – 1st: 4 pts – 2nd: 2 pts – 3rd: 1 pt – 4th: 1 pt

    Evens to 2/1 – 1st: 8 pts – 2nd: 4 pts – 3rd: 3 pts – 4th: 2 pts

    9/4 to 4/1 – 1st: 14 pts – 2nd: 6 pts – 3rd: 4 pts – 4th: 3 pts

    9/2 to 15/2 – 1st: 17 pts – 2nd: 8 pts – 3rd: 6 pts – 4th: 4 pts – 5th: 2 pts – 6th: 1 pt

    8/1 to 11/1- 1st: 22 pts – 2nd: 10 pts – 3rd: 8 pts – 4th: 6 pts – 5th: 4 pts – 6th: 2 pts

    If you could Raymo that would be great…. :good:
    My friend is not very well at the moment, so I reluctantly said I’ll give the dog a walk as well, that will set me back another hour as it’s a Collie so I’ll be throwing the ball as if there’s no tomorrow.

    Great tipping Stilvi, you won that by a distance, and well done Bob and
    Wyldeside taking the other podium places :good:

    Thanks for running that Nathan, even though I missed the break, and finished
    pretty much tailed off, I still enjoyed the competition. At least I’m consistent
    after my worst Cheltenham by some way. Bejesus, I’m almost looking forward to the
    flat :wacko:

    Thanks, it’s taken quite a few tries to win one. It would have been quite nice to go out on a high but realistically not much chance of matching that first day.

    As ever thanks for the organisation.
