HOLIDAYS A lot of players take part in EVERY placepot competition throughout the season as you really need to post in every competition to stay in the running
If you cannot gain computer access for any reason you may choose to enter while on holiday or on days out or know you will be suffering from a hangover by asking for any of the following :
Returned Favourites (subject to normal joint fav. and co.fav rules)
Racecard numbers (please leave enough time for these to be converted to names before the first race takes place
Top weights in all handicaps, along with racecard numbers for non-handicap races. In the event of joint top weights or non-runners you revert to favourite rules
Unfortunately due to other commitments I have chosen to take on, I am not going to be in a position to participate in the competition this year in the way I would wish to, therefore best of luck to all for bumper scores and successful naps, not to mention bonuses, will look in whenever possible to see who is hitting the heights...!
