Lol, sisyphus, I still don't really get what your gripe is.
Yeah I see Don Poli is running today which is nice, for some reason the RP site wasn't working the other day, and when I tried Sportinglife it suggested that he'd been taken out. Still, I don't think we can now win the monthly, which is a shame, but I'm still very happy with how it's going so far. Jezki would be nice today as well. I still don't know how you see which horses someone has in their entry, could anyone help out on this? I have been doing my complete brains punting in the last couple of days, so hopeful of a change of fortunes today! |

Did anyone have Sign of a Victory in their lists? He seems likely to go for the Betfair Hurdle next, which is a bonus race we didn't specifically target. We left him out after he was taken out of the Fighting Fifth, but should go well in the Betfair. We had Jollyallan as a possible as well for that race, so would be nice if he runs. Vaniteux could go as well I guess, and he'd have a chance.

Yes, I have all three of those but low representation, it's immaterial in terms of monthly prize for me but Le Vent D'Antan won yesterday but points not yet added, just wonder if that applies to any other runners over the holiday period and if it has a bearing on the accuracy of the leaderboard?
I think they usually update the points after/during each day's racing? |
|
By:
^ e.g. the points for Road To Riches from yday are already showing but not Le Vent D'Antan...strange.

Does anyone know when the winners for December will be announced? It's pretty shoddy that they haven't been yet, eight days into the month. I'm pretty sure we got second in the monthly, for a monkey prize, which gets back some of the investment at least.
Pretty sure we haven't scored any points yet this month though. Could do with Josses Hill losing tomorrow. Also Sgt Reckless runs a flat maiden tomorrow... Wtf is he doing? |
|
By:
Just tweeted Hills and they said results will be announced tomorrow fwiw.
|
|
By:
Well done on the pick-up.
|
|
By:
Sergeant Reckless awarded 10 pts today despite the rules referring specifically to scoring 10 pts when winning National Hunt races. Bizarre.
|
|
By:
I think Sgt Reckless's points have been docked now.
|
|
By:
Could do with Fever winning today, as we don't have any Don Cossack, and Fever was our most common pick for the King George line.
|
|
By:
Don Cossack helped our best list. Have The New One (hopefully) and Vautour over the weekend.
|
|
By:
WD on Don Cossack JOCI. TNO and Vautour were both good for us this weekend (70% and 50%). I would hope that Vautour has another run before Chelt, but apparently the plan is not to. It was good for us that Sprinter got beaten at the weekend, as we made the late decision to leave him out, but we don't have any Dodging Bullets, which is a shame.
Big few days coming up though, with Djakadam, Briar Hill, Glen's Melody possibles at Gowran tomorrow. Then we have Many Clouds, Dynaste, Black Thunder, Smad Place, and Holywell in the Argento. Then there's Saphir de Rheu in the Cleeve. Gilgamboa and Un De Sceaux in the Irish Arkle, HF and Jezki in the ICH, and maybe Black Hercules in the Novice Hurdle. Am going to Cheltenham and Leopardstown, so hopefully I'll be able to see a few of them win at least! |

Sounds like a good way to spend a weekend!
Hadrian's Approach could be a darker one for us up at Doncaster. |

By:
Wow well done T2F!
Djakadam was nice for us yesterday, as we had in 40% of entries, and that brings a load more of our perms into play. If only he'd done that in the Hennessy ![]() ![]() ![]() |

Does anyone remember the guy who watched the lottery results one Saturday evening, copied the numbers then went straight round his newsagents and put those numbers on for the following Saturday. Down his local that night he boasted he'd won the lottery, and the Landlord was quite happy to credit him with the cost of all the drinks he ordered for the whole pub, all night, until his winnings came through.
I Suppose that could be classed as a form of Munchausen syndrome, I also think that joining a mini-league and entering groups that are not yours, and masquerading as them is also a form of that very same syndrome. The three leading stables have three different shop pin numbers. The overall leader appears in 3rd place of the ten leading entries I posted on the 29 December at 17:34, the post that I posted 1 hour and 59 minutes before TEN2FOLLOWER's post that stated he was up to 88th place overall. Can't wait to hear the explanation....lol Cant even be called aftertiming, two timing lol. |

Is Motseel Ten2follower too..?????
|
|
By:
Ten, if your going to look at the leaders horses don't forget to get rid of them from your own compilations after you have viewed, and don't join a mini-league!
|

By:
i can assure you im not t2f i only got 6 entries in my mini league and i put mine on at different shops in norwich and gt yarmouth
|

By:
Lol. That's quite funny. We're doing ok still, got quite a few in the top 50, but don't think we have any with over 200pts. If we had the list with all the top scoring horses who we played, our top list would be on 238, 30pts clear of the top, but you can't begrudge that, as we're always unlikely to have that list.
The fly winning yesterday was a bit annoying, would much preferred Jezki to win, and since Jezki didn't even get the points for second, he now can't score more points than the Fly (unless he wins the CH at a much bigger SP than anticipated lol). We had HF in 20%, and Jezki in 50%, so would definitely have preferred Jezki there. Still, we have Un De Sceaux in 50%, so I still feel like we'll likely go into the Festival with at least quite a few live chances. I don't feel like we've any glaring omissions at least. The worst would be Ptit Zig, Dodging Bullets and Don Cossack, who were all borderline for us, but decided against late on. It's probably hard for any entry without Many Clouds to win now, I'd say, unless Djakadam wins the GC, which would bring a load more perms into play considering he'd likely get a biggish SP bonus. |
|
By:
Oh my god, the website is so terrible. Really grinds my gears
|
|
By:
Have 2 lists on 170 points. Both have 8 scoring horses. One has More Of That and Annie Power yet to score (so I hope they both come back to their best, as they would have decent chances at the Festival) and the other has Annie Power and Hardrian's Approach as non scorers (the latter has an engagement at Sandown on Saturday).
Both have decent prospects of winners at the Festival. |
|
By:
Fingal Bay and Rocky Creek both entered in the Betbright at Kempton, which is a bonus race.
|
|
By:
I'm very similar to you Joci. 1 list on 175, with Annie and MOT the 2 non scorers. Managed to duck Many Clouds in all list
, so reasonably pleased with 1 in the top 200 at this stage. |
|
By:
Wow that's extremely impressive to have a list on 175 if you don't have Many Clouds. Well done Corporal.
We've dropped off the top ten now, but have two entries on 198, so still in there pitching. We also have 15 or so on 183+, which is nice as they're all in touching distance of the top, with only one bonus race difference in points. |
|
By:
Cheers dta - suspect I will need some freakish festival results to figure but nice to be vaguely in touch at this stage. You're in great shape - son fingers crossed we have a forum winner
|
|
By:
Suppose it's asking too much for Hadrian's Approach to win off top weight today, as he's in our leading list?
|
|
By:
Annoying about Dynaste as he was in our top list. Also as we don't have Don Cossack at all and his chance is obviously improved a lot. Looks like we've got a few out this weekend though, Uxizandre would be very very nice for us
|
|
By:
Holywell, Glen's Melody and Kings Palace got us points in the past few days, but all only in 10% of entries. They just help us to get more lines into contention though, so it's not too bad.
More of That is a big blow though, as we had in 40% of our entries. I'd say that seriously damages our chances of winning the competition, as that line was split between QMCC & WH and was split like this: 40% MOT, 20% Uxizandre, 20% Balder Succes and 20% Briar Hill. Only Balder has scored points of those, and it's obviously way harder to win with a dud line. So will definitely be cheering on Balder this weekend. Have plenty of others this weekend as well, with Irving massively important as he's our 100% horse, and then Champagne Fever (30%), Don Poli (50%, although I don't think he runs), Briar Hill (20%), and then Gilgamboa, Ballycasey and Monbeg Dude as 10%ers. |
