    Thanks to all. With the bye this week I get a free throw at the stumps so gone ruff on quite a few to see if a couple of long shots are enough to win. Good luck to all in head to heads.

    Seddon reacted to say no more in LONGSHOT Comp - Sat 6 Aug - How It Will Work (not an entry thread)   
    Kingsbeer, one of our regular contestants, has very generously donated $300 to sponsor a one-day "LONGSHOT" comp.  An entry thread will go up this evening but here is how it will work.
    The objective is to pick longshots, ie. horses paying $10 or more to Win (based on closing NZ TAB tote price).
    You have to pick 12 horses across 5 specified meetings (per entry thread).  Provided the horse is paying $10 or more when the Win tote closes, you will have $10 each way on the horse.   If the horse closes paying less than $10 on the Win tote then your selection will be invalid - you will earn nothing.   We know that the tote Win prices can shorten from when you make your selections so you need to aim for longshots who are unlikely to shorten to under $10.
    A simple example to illustrate this.   My selection closes paying $10.50 for the Win and $3.30 for the Place and runs second - I collect $33 from the $10 place bet.  However if the horse runs second but closes paying $9.70 for the Win and $3.30 for the Place, I will collect nothing because the Win dividend was less than $10. 
    The place dividend has no bearing in whether the bet stands or not, but it can form part of the collect if the Win price meets the $10 threshold.
    You can make your selections in any of the races across the 5 meetings.  No limit on number of selections at a particular meeting, but you can only pick one horse per race.
    Scratchings - if any of your selections are scratched you can replace them right up to the posting deadline (start time of the first race on the day).  If you don't replace them that is your loss - your selection is invalid and you lose that opportunity for a collect. Late scratchings and abandoned races are just bad luck - too tricky for the scorers to be picking up replacements on the fly after the posting deadline.
    The winner will be the person with the highest total collect across their 12 picks.   The prizes will be:
    $200 for the winner
    $70 for the runner-up
    $30 for the 3rd place finisher
    In the event of ties the prize money will be split using normal dead-heat splits, eg.  two way tie for 1st each will receive $135.
    Usual story with prizes - they will take the form of a single bet (win and/or place) with any collect split 50% to the entrant and 50% recycled to future comps.
    Thanks Kingsbeer - much appreciated!

    Seddon reacted to Palliser in Greyhound commentators   
    Boy, we are really scraping the barrel these days. There are only 2 decent dog callers in my opinion those being Aaron and Andy. Why they persist with Rosanowski is beyond me ? I noted on callers day by the time he got through the fields and back to those up front the race was over on both his calls, and his incessant waffle when previewing drives you to distraction. Unfortunately Pip Morris is terrible as well and seems to try and imitate Rosanowski both in her calling and waffling previewing .. " I agree with everything you said Rossi" give me strength. Also copies McCooks  "got the chocolates" line. It's all very poor, get Brian Martin back or something to at least bring some colour back to a very vanilla production.

    I am interested too. Just a little confused when it says it’s an Aussie comp but first day is Terapa? Hold the phone just reread the rules and seen where I skipped over a couple of points. I’ll be in.

    Seddon reacted to say no more in Say No More (John’s) Charity – Sisters of Compassion Wellington Soup Kitchen.   
    Apologies for not confirming this sooner.   Thanks to Paul's organisation and the generosity of Scooby and a number of others on this site, we ended up donating $1,750 to the Sisters of Compassion Soup Kitchen - photo of the receipt below.
    This receipt will generate a tax credit of nearly $600 which we will in turn donate to a couple of charities - half to the Soup Kitchen again, and the other half to a charitable trust that works to aid the preservation and rehabilitation of native birds, and particularly the Mohua in the South Island.  Interesting thing I didn't know until recently - the Mohua is the bird that appears on our $100 note, and was Bird Of The Year in 2013.
    Along with the receipt, the Sisters of Compassion sent a letter thanking us for the donation, which finished with a very nice:
    May God bless you and protect you.
    Ma te Atua koe e manaaki, e tiaki hoki.
    Hopefully he/she might send a winner or two our way as well

    3 horses per race to finish in top 4. Points where they finish. ie. 1-2-3-4 If any of your horses finish outside top 4 you score 8 points per horse. Lowest score wins.
