Right first time

Wow.
So close, my Veandercross stablemates !
A fitting nail-biting finish to what has been such a highly entertaining and highly enjoyable comp these past many, many weeks.
Pondy launched late . . . John, too. . . and almost brought us home ! 
Very well done Pete, Foxmerts, Idolmite and Stoyd - very worthy champions the team Bonecrusher. You were a benchmark team right through, and held your nerve when it mattered most when under heavy attack.
I was thrilled to be in a team with John, Pondy and Kloppite. Great stablemates. We can be proud of finishing a close 2nd.
Most of all, thanks John and Scooby for this marvellous competition. John, your skill at running these comps is simply breathtaking. Many, many thanks, my friend. 👏👏

Well done guys was really hoping you could get home...well done to the Champs in both comps great comp all round thanks John for thinking this up...now back to finding losers LOL.

Gutted... initially thought mine had got up and that would have given us the win, but the photo finish told a different story... well done Bonecrusher, consistent throughout the comp

Grand Final - Mornington R9 - Final race
# Name Jockey/Driver/Trainer Win Place 10 Maharba Michael McNab 3.40 1.90 8 Nicolini Vito Daniel Stackhouse   3.00 3 The Inferno Jake Noonan   2.10 Bet Type Runners Dividend Quinella 8,10 18.80 After 11 weeks of pool play and three weeks of play-offs we have our Fabulous Fours winners.
and what an incredibly close finish - Nicolini Vito flashed home but came up just short for Pondy.  A low scoring match but couldn't have been closer.  
Congratulations to team Bonecrusher (Foxmerts, Pete, Idolmite and Stoyd) - minor premiers and carried that form into the play-offs and finished as deserved champions.
and congratulation also to our plate winners Imperatriz (Jack, Ohokaman, Peter RS and #48) who were comfortable winners today, lead by Peter RS but with all four team members making healthy contributions
Thanks to everyone who took part - great turnout each week, played in great spirit and with a healthy bit of banter (mostly from the lippy Ockers).
Hope to see you all next Saturday for the Losers Get Laid comp.
 

Brilliant day to end a super comp….thanks to John for his magic scoring……👏
Great effort from the team today especially Peter and Jack…well done fellas. Top total.
Mrs given all clear at the Hospital too so a big relief for us there….🙏
