    Graham (BigG) has kindly offered to mark up our York Ebor Competition this year as Nathan takes a bit of time off. Many thanks Graham. :good:

    As agreed I will mark up the first days scores Graham and that’s where my knowledge of aligning columns ends but happy to help out any other day if needed. :good:

    Competition runs for 4 days from Wednesday 18th August until Saturday 21st August 2021

    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 choose 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 your 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 20% 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 include as many reserves as you like but cannot add any after the time of the first race.
