Ok Liz has proposed we run the same competition again for the coming year - same rules, same prize, ....

How it works

1] From the current Karaka yearling sales, pick FOUR horses that you think will make the 2 year old Karaka Millions field in 2026.

2] If they do, you get 10 points for each one that does.

3] It one of your picks runs 1st: 30 points, 2nd: 20 points, 3rd: 10 points, 4th: 5 points and 5th: 2 points (on top of the 10 points for making the field).

Most points wins - first Prize $100 bet sponsored by Liz.  Any tie for first will be split by:

- most runners in the field; then
- who had the winner; then
- who had the runner-up; then
- who had the 3rd place horse

If the tie is still not broken then the prize will be split.  If no one picks a horse to even make the field, the competition is null and void.

Posting deadline - last day for posting selections is Friday 14 February

Please post the Lot # and the Dam's name

eg. 

Lot 103 Matagouri
Lot 345 Symphonic
.......

If a horse makes the field (ie. listed in the race field and included in the barrier draw) but is subsequently scratched, you will still earn 10 points for that horse.  This includes any ballots.

Lot 38 - Kali

Lot 41 - Katie's Choice

Lot 399 - War Goddess 

Always love the 2yo picture both here in NZ and in Australia, lot of futures bets with the Slipper and the Diamond for me. 

I like to pick horses that have been purchased by NZ trainers/owners as you know you are a good chance, more so than if you go to highly respectable trainers in Aussie, like Moody or Neasham or Price or Waller.

I'll say it now, don't think David Ellis bought to many nice 2yo types for mine.
