Lord Zirito was another hurdler I liked.  Won a couple of Great Northern hurdles (and might have placed in another).  Saw him win the Wellington Steeplechase at Trentham (after winning on the first day as well).

Sorry team, poor picking by me today.  We were a couple of narrow margins away from a good result today.  If you look at where we were after Round 10, we did well to give ourselves a shot at the play-offs.  Not to be, but last week was a lot of fun.  Of course we saw the flipside today but we died trying.
It's been a pleasure being in the same team as all of you - enjoyed our ongoing messaging and positive team spirit.
Congrats to the four teams who make the finals and good luck to all of you.  Shouldn't have favourites but I'll be rooting for team AA - Howie's enthusiasm and optimism are hard to go past.
Peter J - thank you once again for the most brilliant "dry & boring" comp I've ever come across - you are an absolute legend.

I'm thinking we Ad Augusta wore you guys out last week.
Sorry 'bout that ! 

our time awaits Rees!

at least you made it to the straight. I am leaning over the rail at the end of the back straight. 

Yeah maybe so Hesi but we're ok with that.   Tell us it was overkill when we're tied on points after next week and we go through courtesy of a better aggregate 
 

Nice work team LDM.  Always good when a plan comes off and now we go in to the last week still with an outside shot at the play-offs.  Steve P marvellous tipping today!!
Nice to have such a healthy aggregate too in the event of a tie - might be like an away goal.
Howie and the AAs - unfortunately you caught us on one of our good days.  I'm sure you'll bounce back next week - in fact, please do bounce back next week - we need your help. 

This has been one of the best ever PJ Super Comps, in my humble opinion, and I've been in most of them.
They keep getting better and better.
Leaves all other tipping comps in the shade.
And a very big thank you to PJ for that ...and thanks also to all participants.
Great entertainment every Saturday.

Very well done John, Gordy, Steve P, Rees and Tony.
Truly outstanding performance by 'Lay Down Misere' today with a novel plan never seen before in the history of PJ Super Comps, and executed to absolute perfection with everything they touched turning to gold. We Double AAs got an absolute pasting but we've no problem with  that ...it happens. Good fortune hasn't really run LDMs way through the first 12 rounds of the comp, so good on them for such a strong fight-back with a day for them to savour. Good luck next week for an equally successful result to see you in to the playoffs.
And elsewhere, the brilliant TC goes 13  from 13 ! Astonishing. 
I've had TC's application to be considered for the Mighty Blues wider training squad, in my inbox for two or three weeks now, and I have to say he's presenting a reasonably strong case for inclusion. I'm thinking it won't belong before we have our people talking to TC's people.   
Thanks for your scoring and updates today, PJ. Much appreciated, as always.
Roll on next Saturday. It can't come quickly enough ! 
Cheers, all.

John forgot to state that he was responsible for a number of the selections, including the last winner.

Absolutely admire the strategy, John and it will be a real coup for your team if you can indeed make the playoffs from where you were positioned.
And of course it's not just a matter of all landing on the same horses ....they have to be the right horses ....and be double-figure odds winners to be really successful. And you've played that brilliantly ...with appropriate acknowledgement to that pesky Steve P ...one of the most successful selectors in recent PJ Comp history. 

It was a plan hatched out of desperation Howie.  We need two 5-0 wins to have any shot at making the big show (and even that might not be enough).  A 3-2 win wasn't going to cut it so we figured we needed some degree of uniformity in our selection.  We settled on almost complete uniformity (with a little bit of discretion).
Credit goes to Tony for hatching the plan and Steve P for that selection - he's our go to guy.
but still a long way to go - I'd quote Mr Wolf from Pulp Fiction but this is a family show

We're awake now!

And you were of course all together with Saffron Lady !
Man was I pushing that 'Big Mike' the final 100m .... and I wasn't even on it.
Well done John and Lay Down Misere.  Inspired decision. Another one of those and you'll be looking at  a 5-pointer.
I'm thinking we're gonna need to rally.
Thankfully we've got a few long-shots in the arsenal.

OK, this is interesting.
Boom or bust day for our opponents 'Lay Down Misere' today ...needing a win to keep their playoff hopes alive.
And the first thing I note is that John, Steve P, and Rees have exactly the same selections in Races 1,2,3 (Best Bet),4,5, 7 (Best Bet), 8,9, 10. Somehow  Rees went rogue in R6 and came up with something different  from the others, as lack of concentration and insufficient attention to detail saw him wonder away momentarily from the script. 
Oh dear ...I was hoping I wouldn't have to strategise today, (cos it only hurts my brain when I start focusing on things ), but I s'pose I better phone Head Office in Ad Augusta Boulevard and ask to speak with the counter-tactics division to see what the geniuses can come with by way of a plan to repel what looks like is a sustained challenge today.
