The Crucible

yep

Peter RS didn't have a placegetter in the first race. The rules don't explicitly state it, but it's a multi - you need all 5 legs to win (until the terminating week).

Check out YT's earlier posts and all the other entries - the races in which you have to pick the winners, the placegetters and the quinella have been specified. eg. race 7 at Awapuni is the quinella race

Where's All Razzle Dazzle when we need her?

Wasn't a pittance Gruff, and what's more I think your comp might have been the only comp with a winner. Appreciate your generosity even if my picks were shite. Tough day at Matamata yesterday - just ask BGP.

Lol

Tangled ends up in second

or less with the Kiwi relegated?

Yep I'm not sure how he knows Pete - he only reads this forum. Only P4P can bring the entertainment. Can't fathom how PJ can get 40 or 50 people coming back each time for such a dry and boring competition.

R1 - 2/4 R2 - 1/4 R3 - 4/8 bb R4 - 9/14 R5 - 1/8 R6 - 1/9 R7 - 8/13 R8 - 5/15 R9 - 3/10 R10 - 10/14 bb Thanks Peter. All the best Rob - you're right, bubble is due to burst anytime now

R1 - 9 R2 - 10 R3 - 7 R4 - 6 R5 - 8 R6 - 9 R7 - 7 Thanks Gruff

I guess it's a competition (?) and the other forum is called "Tips & Competitions" - but that's all just semantics. The thing is this is a public forum and everyone is entitled to their opinion, whether others like it or not. You can just as easily ignore Rees' post - like you've suggested he ignore your "competition". His post wasn't abusive or malicious.

The Tipping forum is for proper competitions with clear rules, etc....while this forum tends to have the novelty comps - sometimes some ambiguity, a bit of flexibility, not always a winner, ..... Rees has a point though - not long back threads were being shifted to the Tipping forum because this forum was deemed not the right place for tipping threads. Just go with the flow Rees!

Thanks Ponderosa for your generosity. I'd like to place the bet at Mornington on Saturday - rain in NZ and rain in Sydney so searching for a good track. Mornington, race 6 - #11 Leodoro - $50 each way (currently fixed odds of $8 and $2.50) Nice win last start and will have enjoyed a little freshen up. Any collect please recycle into another comp. Thanks again.

Another idea for the NZ Racing site. Edit the race replay videos so that they start just before the race starts (like they do on the Aussie sites). I certainly appreciate the the fact that the video replays are available but the elapsed time before the race start varies markedly from race to race. How hard is it to crop the videos to a consistent start point. I politely emailed them this suggestion but never heard back, and nothing has changed.

Do you have to pick the four in order or is it four picks boxed? I'm assuming because your latest post referred to "No 10 to run 3rd" that its picking all four in the right order.

1. 1-7 bb 2. 1-2 3. 8-15 4. 2-11 5. 1-6 6. 2-3 7. 6-7 8. 1-4 9. 7-14 bb 10. 3-9 Cheers Peter and all the best Steve P

"have" - the most underused word on Racecafe

do they call Geoff "Captain" by any chance?

St Leger - Felaar Cuddle - Symphonic Guineas - Astor Lightning - Ferrando Oaks - Milseain

Yeah I agree they will both struggle to beat Savvy Coup (although the draw helps a little). I was focusing on our H2H battle for the consolation prize. Milseain will need to settle better than she did in the Lowland. Hopefully some pace on in the Oaks.
