Chestnut 3,140 Report post Posted December 7, 2018 Howdy folks Fantastic day of racing in NZ on Saturday, especially with a meeting at my beloved Trentham, so let's see if we can make it a bit more enjoyable for you I'll just recap some of the rules so that you know how I'm going to score the comp - hopefully to avoid any confusion on the day 1. You have $10 to spend on each of the three races as a minimum - if you earn more than $10 then all of what you earn will go on the next race. If you don't win on race 1 then you will have $10 to spend on Race 2 and likewise for Race 3. If you gain a return under $10 then we will top it up to $10 for the next race. What you earn in Race 3 is your final total for the competition. 2. How you have allocated your money in each race is how I will divide up your money when placing the bet in the next. For example, if you have put $2 win/$8 place for race 2, I will divide your funds available after race 1 into 20%/80% and likewise after race 2 going into race 3. 3. Any scratchings go on to the starting fave, there are no scratching replacements. Once you have posted, they are locked in 4. Competition entries close at 1.30pm - one hour before first race start time. I think that's enough of the rules and now we get down to the fun stuff I will do updates following each race showing totals won and how much is going to be placed on your next bet, if a total is $10.00 then competitors have either got a return under the $10 cap or they have been slightly unfortunate in their selections ... The total showing after race 3 is how much you have won on the day. TRENTHAM 1. Race 4 2.30pm Wakefield Challenge Stakes 2yo Group 2 1,000m $100,000 2. Race 8 4.50pm Captain Cook Stakes WFA Group1 1600m $200,000 ELLERSLIE 3. Race 6 5.50pm Bonecrusher Stakes 3yo Set Weights Group 3 1400m $70,000 Let's hope the racing gods are feeling generous Sir Castleton, Hall and scooby3051 3 Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Chestnut 3,140 Report post Posted December 8, 2018 All Up Comp R1 : Trentham R4 : Anuka Smoker Wakefield Challenge Stakes 2YO SW First: 1 Aotea Lad $2.20 / $1.50 Second: 2 Killin $4.10 Third: 7 Aretha No Dividend Sub: 1 Aotea Lad Scr: 4 Appellant No late scratchings. No returns under $10 so all on $10 for the next race were either outside of the placings or were unfortunate to be on 7 Aretha who didn't pay a dividend due to 7 runners after the scratching of Appellant, but I'm sure Winfreux, flockofewes2, Warren and thecaptain didn't mind as they benefited from the fave scratching replacement. mrzim, bazza, Stoyd, Thepaw, Thecaptain, PresidentGary, and talk all had their $10 on the nose of Aotea Lad and got off to a good start with $22 in the bank for the next, but top honours in the first go to those that found the nice paying Killin at 4's for the place earning themselves a nice kitty of $41 - lynzim, Jenlove and Girl Power with Mardy also joining in with 7 on the second placegetter.

Chestnut 3,140 Report post Posted December 8, 2018 All Up Comp R3 : Ellerslie R6 : Bonecrusher Stakes 3YO SW : FINAL RACE OF COMP First: 5 Spirits Aubeer $11.60 / $3.40 Second: 12 Surely Sacred $3.40 Third: 7 Hypnos $4.80 Scr: 13 Sub: 4 Well .. what a difference a race makes .. this All Up win and placings caper isn't as easy as we think it should be .. The Spirit of Boom rebellious 3yo did a lot wrong but still managed to run away with the Bonecrusher and Bazza and Thepaw saw it all unfolding as they typed in their selections but just didn't have the funds needed heading into the last, Surely Sacred was the last ditch banker for RacingJimmy, scooby, Rusty, Jenlove and paigezim, but unfortunately not all allocated place money, and Hypnos, well this is where the difference of a race comes into play .. Insider, Sir Castleton and Zappa counted on the Reliable Man gelding to bring them home and that's what he did for Sir Castleton (yay Roland) who had all of his previous winnings $32 on him to run in the first three. Also well done to all of those that ended up with a bigger balance than 0 on the last.. looking at the duck eggs, it was no mean feat I've highlighted the top 3 - congratulations to you! yay!
