Yir Tiz 223 Report post Posted March 26, 2018 I thought I would have a wee bash at my own competition for those that want some interest over the next weekend/s racing. I will put up a $500.00 betting voucher as the prize Manawatu looks like it will attract some good fields so I propose a competition that starts on Saturday it may well finish on Saturday but i am willing to let it roll over for 3 weeks until we have a winner/s. This week will consist of 5 races (3 NZ & 2 OZ)and you will be required to pick The winner of 2 races A place getter in 2 races The quinella in 1 race (you will box 3 runners for this) Any scratchings after posting you will go to the next runner in the field. If no winner/s the first week the comp will be 4 (2NZ &2 OZ )races the next week 2 winners 2 Placegetters . Should a 3rd week be required it will be 5 (2NZ & 3OZ) races nominated and whoever gets the most winners and highest WIN dividend total will get the prize.

I will nominate the races but i will be sensible and not make them 2000 mtr maidens , for the quinella option I will nominate a race with no more than 12 starters, no point in making it unwinnable and really difficult as it is terminating.

I just decided to run a terminating comp because as you know I stated I had $500.00 to offer up and decided to put my money where my mouth was. So can we please just let this thread/comp run along so contributors can just have some fun & friendly banter, and the chance of getting a voucher. puha, chelseacol, scooby3051 and 5 others 5 2 1 Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

After winning Gruff’s one last week I’m confident of a repeat Long way to go yet with weather and possible track conditions and so on Col but we will no doubt get updates from cafe'ers tomorrow & Wednesday. Just as an aside would the southern contributors like one of the Riverton races included in the 3 NZ options? Riverton have a couple there that look a possible if you southerners like. I will be posting the 5 target races on Wenesday evening so people can do their preliminary study!. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
