Ponderosa8 1,321 Report post Posted February 27, 2021 An amazing effort by Ponderosa8 today, picked all 12 winners including the 140-1 shot in the Australian Guineas so scored the maximum 70 points. But a sample taken has shown some irregularities so will without a doubt be disqualified which will mean Peter R S will be declared the winner with 39 points with mikenz, Racing Jimmy and Sir Castleton dead-heating with 34 points. Those people who's both BB's won were: Peter R S, tasman man, Nukkledragga and Sir Castleton. (bit of a rush job today so if believe your total is different to what I've shown below please let me know and I'll rectify).

Peter R S 408 Report post Posted February 27, 2021 Thanks Scooby and Ponderosa for running the competition, and everyone else for entering. It’s been a long time between wins, today I got lucky after a hot start when the roughies that no one picked began to win. Sadly was on the road travelling for most of it so was a nice surprise when the results were posted. cheers, Peter Black Kirrama and Gruff 2 Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

mikenz 1,070 Report post Posted February 27, 2021 I've surprised myself finishing 2nd equal,thanx for the opportunity to play this comp. Just noticed my other best bet got beaten a long neck,those 10 points for winning instead of the 3 for second would have made a slightly different outcome but that's life,its all fun anyway,more likely than not next time I will resume back to normal operations lol scooby3051 1 Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Disillusioned 389 Report post Posted February 27, 2021 Congrats to Peter and, as always, appreciation to Ponderosa and Scooby. It beats me how slow some (most?) folk are to give thanks to folk who are doing you a service (especially if that is voluntary) . I went to Otaki, Scooby, and picked the longshot quinela in the Weight For Age race. 'Highlight' of the day, mind, was having to drve back into Wellington wirth a bubbling partner who wouldn't shut up about the fact that little ol' her had put $7 on a horse called Lunar Fox on the spurious grounds that 'the Guineas field didn't look up to much'. Sometimes, I swear, there just isn't enough vomit in the world... Gruff, Camacho, Trump and 2 others 5 Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Sometimes, I swear, there just isn't enough vomit in the world... What a great story! Love it! Reminds me of the reverse situation. At the races with my wife and she asked me to put $5ew on horse called “Leather”. She liked the name (you know where this is heading don’t you?). Looking at the tote odds as I approached the betting counter, I saw that it was paying $64. Deciding it had a snowflakes chance in hell, I decided not to put the bet on and keep quiet. By start time, the price blew out further to over $80. “Your on!” I pronounced as the field jumped. Yep, it got up, my wife was squealing like a pig at her new found riches - especially when the dividends were posted! There is no justice in life - I didn’t deserve that but luckily I was up a bit on the day and the pain of paying her out wasn’t so bad Disillusioned and Gruff 1 1 Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

mikenz 1,070 Report post Posted March 6, 2021 I messaged scooby with the horse I pick for my competition winning bet but I ain't had him acknowledge it as he seems to be gone for the day,so if it loses he can keep the 50 bucks,if it wins then what,I dont want to name the horse at present,once I do then well it's on the record then,it start in 3 hours,truth be known it will finish in 3 and a half lol. Just to add if the horse won its 225 bucks,if it runs a place 75,if unplaced nothing based on odds at time I picked it. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
