Well done Euro.. I had 4 of the top 6 scoring horses and you still beat me with that incredible serlection.. Bloody Honeysuckle.. What was your mindset in selecting her??.. First and foremost I have to thank Bobby VTC for creating the best comp yet.. And that was without Aintree and Punchestown.. Lets hope we’re all here to do it again next season.. There’s a few of us go back a long way on here so stay safe as best you can. Well done everyone involved in this comp it gets bigger and better every year and long may it last.. So long as VTC wins contributor of the year every year as some sort of recognition for his efforts people will realise the work he does. Thanks for messages guys too. It wouldn’t be me to be modest but I thought last year at Epsom I had found my new Dancing Brave in Pinatubo.. I took all the 16s for the 2000gns I could get and 25s for the Derby and 66s for the double.. TAPK has to put things in perspective though and accept that racing is merely a luxury.. Surviving is a different ball game.. Stay safe and oneday we will return to normality and I will continue to reign supreme as the legendary King of Ante-Post betting…
Oh and lets all support the virtual Grand National today.. Its for the real heroes at the NHS.. The aptly mamed ‘The Storyteller’ at 40/1 ew is my selection.. Shame the bloody computer that deciphers all info wont recognise that but hey ho..
Thanks again everyone and especially Bobby-VTC!
Why Honeysuckle?? – She was one of the first horses I selected for my TTF. I liked the way she won at Leopardstown back in April ’19, and thought she could win a few races this season. She’s a tough, gutsy, mare ridden by Rachael Blackmore – so what’s not to love!
I wanted a star horse that was different than most, so I took a chance on her. Bringing in Shiskin and Al Boum Photo as my two transfer horses also played a big role in my win.Stay Safe Everyone! Hopefully we’ll be back talking horses on here real soon.
I’m the same as you Euroalien, this competition was the main reason that I joined here, though you certainly fared a lot better than I did. Really well done, and also a great effort from The Ante-post King and Hot Fuss.
I thought that I had a great list, but it just goes to show how difficult this competition really is.
Thanks to Venture to Cognac for a really slick competition, it’s certainly better organised than the real version, and I will definitely be back for more.
Many thanks VTC for your organising of this comp and congrats to Euro on winning so spectacularly with Honeysuckle !
Such a pity things have come to a sudden halt. Still, I had a few quid on Potter’s Corner on the virtual GN !!
Stay safe everyone.
I’m a little bit late here venture, but better late than never.
Thank you for another incredible competition + I tried hard to get in the money again, but I couldn’t quite get there.
Very well done to tapk and hot fuss for making the first three + of course Euroalien for an incredible pick with Honeysuckle.
