That was some win , hardest step up for a horse is 3yo to 4yo and more so a filly , but she stepped up magnificently , looks a Cox Plate horse for sure .

Yes they may have to decide do they go there with Via Sistina as well going that way...what a nice problem to have.

[Maximus]

Congrats to HokeyMite on their excellent day with a very good total. Too good for Maxi-Foxy ...(blimmin' Damask Rose...grrr ...she flew home after giving them a decent start...) Onwards and upwards, eh Foxy!

Thanks to snm for brilliant collation skills.

I would suggest they might split them up Via Sistina to the Cox plate and treasurethe moment to the Caulfield cup and then possible a tilt at the Melbourne Cup after that with the young mare, I don't think you really want your queen and princess cutting each other up in a group 1 if you can really help the situation....

Yes Al I am eating humble pie for breakfast.  United appear to have turned their season around with a resounding win at home over high-flyers Burnley.

Geez Al don't go getting your hopes up over that win.

Spurs were appalling and deserved to lose , Man U were bog average and got lucky .

Still know which team I'm more confident about .

I do believe this thread about the Pairs Comp is at risk of being hijacked by peeps demonstrating a bizarre fascination with EPL and therefore should be 'locked to further replies' (on that subject, at least).
LOL

Next week Aaron will slot back in with Alf and we'll be looking for replacements for Hall/Camacho.

Singapore Sling - are you keen to continue?

Pegasus - Toddy stood down but was that just to make way for the extra player we had, or due to other commitments?

 

Hi John, normally keen, but not sure on upcoming plans so will stay out...

Alf, sorry I couldn't be of more help... hopefully with Aaron back, you will get back on track.

Yep, I've got a couple lined up if we don't have anyone else come forward.

[scooby3051]

OK I just put up an announcement too...lets hope we get a couple of regulars to come on board.

Toddy is unavailable for whole comp. Apologies I should have said that earlier.

So now we just need one more to complete the full compliment again...surely we can rustle up someone...a few of the regular members who normally sign up are missing, give me some suggestions I will reach out to them.

His selections were 2 and 5. Number 5 ran second and paid $2 x $10 = $20.

[Idolmite]

Team Ohokamite is going to need to do a Kiwi from the 1983 Melbourne Cup. Now, where's Jimmy Cassidy
