Crikey, it starts next Saturday and I haven’t received my ‘Horses to Follow’ guide yet. I may just have to wing it …!! Thanks for the reminder Big G !
Haven’t done a lot of research into this forthcoming season yet, but thought I’d fire 10 in before the deadline ! I’ll ping the usual to your account, VTC … thanks once again !

Topofthegame *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.
Yea, well done Waka and thanks Big G for the updates. Such a pity it had to end so suddenly, but look, we were very fortunate to have got Cheltenham. Stay safe everyone!
Don’t forget that the transfer window opens this week … I think. Not sure what the rules are but it’s usually advisable to wait till as late as possible (but allowing for potential website gremlins ..!!).
I’ve been in Fred all since Xmas Triptych, so might well be taking your place before long !! 🤩
What a strange Xmas period with none of the big guns scoring – Paisley Park, CPS, Lostinatranslation, Champ, Klassical Dream, Fakir d’Oudrais etc etc ..,!! Still, it’s early days yet.
Well spotted Big G. I think (hope) it’s one of very few entries where I don’t have PP…. I put him into most of the others …. there’s only 10 slots per entry unfortunately ! 😂
😂😂😂 couldn’t agree more. Still, I wouldn’t knock them too much given it’s their first go (and at short notice) at it … they should learn a thing or two for next year however !!🙏
I hope the Racing Post put regular updates / leaderboards in once or twice weekly – it’s all part of the fun & a lot easier than trawling through the app or website !!
Thanks guys. Yes nice to have 2 big winners in the bag so early on (Fakir D’Oudrais & de Rasher Counter). I was toying with sticking Buveur d’Air in till the last minute and I really couldn’t see him getting any more than the ‘guaranteed’ Fighting Fifth points … phew ! But bad luck for you, Triptych. Anyway, it’s a marathon – not a sprint !!! …….. but such a great competition !!!
Thanks for the sage advice BigG. Crikey, as you say it’s not easy to navigate but I did finally manage to get 25 entries in after 3 hours ! I thought that making a shortlist of horses would make the process easy, but when I came to making up various stables I found I couldn’t select from that shortlist, so I just reverted to the main long list … discovered it helps to click the ‘ABC’ icon at the top to put the list in alphabetical order. Hope it helps others…. and get cracking !!!
Good luck all.I’m leaving it till the last minute to submit my Tote / Racing Post TTF entries. Some last minute changes required, what with Kemboy now sorted (sorry Presenting Percy) and based on Segal’s faith in Now McGinty, out goes Discorama !
Is anyone else entering? Might be worth setting up a TRF league ??
Thanks Simon. No idea why they interview jockeys for this when they know nout about bankers / perms etc!! Segal & Kelly give you what you want (although nothing too surprising !)
