No worries. It's useful to have the list in one place.

Yes, any idea on the handicaps?

Aren't most of them actually at the 5 day stage? Not sure which ones if any are early closing

Could well be. Doesn't give me much time to do all my trends for them then.

I dunno about handicaps. Sorry. BF's rules make it impossible for a small-timer like me to lay bets on handicaps.

Handicap entries will come out around the same time as the Mares Hurdle Entries. Last year entries for h-caps came out on the 23rd Feb, with weights released 29th. From what I recall about the last set of entries are usually the Bumper and the Foxhunters. Plenty of time for trend work!!

Corporal is about right. Entries for the handicaps are usually out around 3 weeks prior to the meeting.

Doh! I was getting mixed up with a completely different meeting

Here are the safety limits that I can find. I won't swear these are 100% correct, but they should
be pretty close. No particular order....

Supreme       24
Arkle         20
Champ Hdl     28
Cross Country 16
Mares' Hdl    24
NH Chase      20
World Hdl     24
Neptune       24
RSA           20
Albert Bart   20
Champ Chs     24
Ryanair       24
Foxhunter     24
Triumph       24
Gold Cup      24

Pete The Bloke,

Belated thanks for your Jan 15 post.

Anyone got anything on the h'caps? I'm surprised BF doesn't have any of them up yet.

HAndicaps close Feb 19th, weights 28th.

Thanks Mark
