    I put myself forward for this one when Mr & Mrs Raymo ran the Goodwood
    Competition. Runs from Wednesday 17th August until Saturday 20th. All very
    welcome :good:

    Rules

    You select 1 horse in each race over the course of the meeting
    In one race per day you can select 2 horses
    You may chose 1 nap per day (please make clear)
    NAP selections score double for WIN ONLY
    You can pick a next best (NB) as a reserve for your Nap in case of being a non runner
    If Nap is a N/R and your NB is a non runner the reserve of your Nap will become the Nap.
    (no reserve no nap)

    Entries have to be in before first race of each day, if for whatever reason you are late
    post your entries still for later races which will be accepted but you will get hit with
    10% point deduction for that day Strictly no Edits after the off time of 1st race, all
    points on that day will be deducted You may included as many reserves as you like but
    cannot add any after the time of the first race

    Looking forward to this Graham and thank you for doing it.
    Wish I could help out but have the grankids on Wednesdays and Fridays in the school holidays and will be recording those days to watch later.

    Sorry, I did not want to cause any extra work! But it did seem strange that Ebor Day was not included.

    Thanks for running the competition. I will have a go but York is a notoriously unlucky track for me and I confidently expect to finish nearer last than first. :yes:

    Good stuff Graham :good: :good:
    As always look forward to battling for the cakes. We love York and we have form there too!! I seem to recall getting caught or something like that on the last race one year!!

    If you need a hand any day just let me now and you can have a day off or if life gets in the way, we will willingly help.

    Be Lucky Folks :good: :good:
