Please note if any of your New Plymouth selections are scratched tomorrow you are welcome to post replacement picks prior to the start of Race 3.  If you don't post replacements you will default to the TAB sub(s).  If New Plymouth is not run tomorrow the seedings will be determined by the results of today's seven races.

So far we have 35 entries so the seeding round will count for something as only the top 32 will proceed to the first knockout round next week.  In the knockout rounds the highest remaining seed will play the lowest, second highest vs second lowest, .........

Deliberate strategy TC, hopefully just doing enough to squeak into the final 32, we've seen how much the pressure of performing impacted on the first draft picks in the last 2 Winter Comps:)

you're a tough captain Hesi !!

Comp Race 10 - Flemington R9:

Seven on the winner including best bets for Sharne (quinella), Howie and Sir C who has jumped up into 3rd place with three New Plymouth races to come tomorrow.  VS on the board to avoid the down trou for the Reapers.

Note, as with Peter's comp, any ties at the end of tomorrow's races will be split by best finishing position in comp race 10.  If New Plymouth does not go ahead tomorrow then Cam, Hesi, Rees and Kay will miss the top 32 - Geoff ahead of Kay courtesy of having the runner-up in the last.

Feel free to post scratching replacements in the morning for tomorrow's races.

I'm trying to make the field with the lightest weight possible.Hope it doesn't backfire on me and  I miss the cut.

You will be right Zim.
I have picked enough 2nds yesterday to ensure the lightweight advantage.
Someone needs to explain to Sarah the virtue of keeping a low moisture content of ones artillery propellant for the real battle.

Final Race:

11 on the winner including Dave who finishes with 6 winners and the top seeding.

Interesting situation in that race with #4 the TAB sub, but three horses closed as equal second favourite (including the winner), and couldn't split them to decide the second sub. Went with the horse that was the most popular pick in this comp - #8 Hoofaloof.  Only impacted Kay and Richie and fortunately didn't impact the top 32 - even if Kay had ther winner he would still have finished in the bottom four.

SORRY I COPIED THE WRONG TABLE JUST THEN - CORRECT SCORES TO FOLLOW IN NEW POST (bit like the Oscars)

Nice win Globe. Left the bugger out and too late to change...:rolleyes:

Gutsy win after being caught wide and not being able to get in. He was set for this race so its no surprise. They are extremely happy with him, considering his arthritic knees.
