No dice, alas. Will have to be more organised next year.
I have entered three lines and will obviously be on here boasting if I hit any heights in the monthlies or overall. Well done Res Not Les for this initiative. I was sceptical about mini leagues until joining one on the Irish forum a couple of years ago. It adds much to the fun of the TTF. |

Here's my 10:
Big Buck's, Binocular, Divers, Finian's Rainbow, Grands Crus, Hurricane Fly, Long Run, Menorah, Mourad, Wayward Prince. Was hoping the two Ms would be in action this weekend but both absent - fingers crossed the first day curse hasn't struck! |
|
By:
Big Bucks. Captain Chris. Diamond Harry. Hurricane Fly. Mourad. Noble Prince. Pandorama. Peddlers Cross. Rubi Light. Wishful Thinking.
So hopefully Wishful takes pp tomorrow and Noble Prince puts Big Zeb to the sword. Obviously relying on Pandorama to mop of the irish grade 1s and Diamond Harry to dethrone Long Run! |

Early analysis of the entries shows the expected avanlanche of Hurricane Fly's (12), Big Bucks (11) & Long Run (10).
Also proving popular are Peddlers Cross (8), Noble Prince, Binocluar & Finian's Rainbow (6). However there's still plenty of differences of opinion with no less than 20 horses appearing only once so far........ |
|
By:
We should make a book as to who has the winning list when we see them all!
|
|
By:
^ Ridiculous of course, but no matter how much thought goes into these lists, it never ceases to amaze me how confidence drains as soon as you hit the submit button. On a similar note, sometimes you just see someone else's list and think it looks really well balanced before wishing you had concocted it and wondering how you didn't!
|
|
By:
My lists (is there's a spot prize for finishing last?)
List 1 Big Buck's Captain Chris Divers Hurricane Fly Kauto Stone Long Run Pandorama Peddlers Cross Spirit Son Wayward Prince List 2 Big Buck's Captain Chris Diamond Harry Hurricane Fly Master Minded Oscar Whisky Quel Esprit Quito De La Roque Spirit Son Wayward Prince Good luck everyone  |
|
By:
Quel Esprit runs today 12:50 Naas (12 pointer)
|
|
By:
Morning all. Thanks for that JOCI, I hadn't noticed. Quel Esprit is one I'm possibly interested in come substitution time, just want to see him jump round and win well for once!
Mischief - I was beginning to think I was the only one who retains faith in Master Minded. Just hours until the competition starts. I think there have been 14 lines posted on here so far but I'm sure there are a few others entered so please post your lines. Then we can all laugh at each other later when no one's found the winner of the Paddy Power. Overnight rain has probably put paid to my chances with Great Endeavour. Thanks to eveyone who has submitted a line or two for the league, hopefully this should add some spice and ensure the competition element lasts a little longer than the first weekend (for me anyway!). Good Luck All. |

Well done res great start wit great endeavour. Jammy sod!
|
|
By:
Nice one Res
Really didn't see that performance coming from Great Endeavor. I had Divers and for a moment I thought maybe, just maybe. At least I got off the mark with Quel Esprit at Naas. Wayward Prince wins the Hennessy on the Snaff so not unduly concerned just yet. |
|
By:
MM
i got divers too....must be a good horse to finish 3rd after barely jumping a fence....but like you said, for a minute i too thought he was coming through....pity he got run out of 2nd place as that would have been 12pts.  |
|
By:
^ Me too - was quite happy coming down the hill. Given that he apparently hated the ground and was wrong at the weights with the front two he's actually run really well. Which is even more frustrating for us to miss out on 1st and 2nd points!
Hopefully he can win one of these big ones but it sounds as though we are going to be at the mercy of the weather if connections are to be believed. |
|
By:
From the lines that have been posted the scoring horses within the league so far are
Great Endeavour 57 Big Zeb 15 Grand Crus 12 Quel Esprit 12 Al Ferof 12 Anyone who entered but hasn't posted their lists yet please add them to the thread when you get chance. I don't think the leaderboard comes out for a few weeks. Are their any more with Great Endeavour out there???? |

Put in 13 lines, one of which contains Grands Crus, Gt Endeavour and Al Ferof but this one (below) was the one I genuinely earmarked for our mini-league and I hope I registered:

gutted....pandorama out for the season.
 |
|
By:
Allegedly Spirit Son has had setback while back? But not a word from the blessed one?
|
|
By:
Realt Dubh, Spirit Son, Pandorama I'm sure there are others - I haven't seen any offical announcements about these horses, but all are supposedly out. This is quite bad IMO, I know connections probably feel they have no obligation to do so, but would it really hurt?
Shame about Pandorama, I wonder whether we'll see the best of this one now. I read about Spirit Son somewhere else on here, disappointing from a TTF point of view but also if it hinders the progress of the horse who looks one of the few who may challenge HF. |
|
By:
So,has anyone of note said anything about Spirit Son??
|
|
By:
i've seen the noel meade quote about pandorama.
|
|
By:
Ok so panorama out, hurricane fly out for now, wishful thinking and noble prince letting me down last week. Unless diamond Harry beats long run on sat I admit to having the worst ttf without question
|
|
By:
Leaderboard is up and running on ttf site at last! Maurice mules well clear at mo in our league. But overall competition leader has had 4 winners so far already and is on 125 points.
Hopefully diamond Harry does the business tomor or I'm completely stuffed! |

long way to go .but looking at w hill comp now

Only one of my lists is showing at 27pts and both lists that I put into the mini league have 27pts.
