[Nathan Hughes]

Starting soon, if you don’t know when you is on the wrong forum……..

PLEASE READ RULES FIRST BEFORE MAKING SELECTIONS

Failure to do so could result in missed points, your choice……..

Prize –

I’m hoping Mr Cormack will come up trumps again for us, details will be posted nearer the time.

Winner –

The person with the highest overall score from the 4 days.
If tied combined scores of 4 naps,
if still tied highest day 1 score,
still tied day 2 etc.
If still tied a duel will commence where the winner will be the one who can sit through a Ginger percentage maths lesson the longest.

Rules –

Each day you pick one horse per race; plus reserves in case of non-runners

In one race per day you can pick two horse plus reserves

Pick one nap per day, if your nap wins you score double points.
(Only Naps that come 1st get double points, placed Naps score normal points)

If someone could post up results plus points of races it would be a good help so people can cross check their scores.
Remember it is 4 places for ALL races with 16 runners or more not just handicap for competition purposes.
Right I’m ready to post up day 1 scores so give me between 5 and 10 minutes and it’ll be done.

A very good turn out with 62 competitors and Steve75 is the fastest out past the man with the yellow flag mainly in thanks to napping Minella Rocco. Slowly Away was slowly away, sorry…
and Raymo61 gets the bragging rights for day one in the raymo household after Mrs R refused to get going, better lucky tomorrow.

I can post up results for first 5 races this afternoon, maybe a delay before I can post up last 2 races. Hopefully, we come up with the same scores

[Triptych]

All agreed Pat thanks. ..I’ll do the final 2 races ..I don’t think there are any non runners today but will do a final check.
Hope all who can will also help Nathan by posting up their scores.
Bookies benefit so far with the ‘Jollys’ getting beaten..big fields for the next come on Rock The Kasbah.. Jac
