I live in Ireland.
We are not allowed do the flat 10 to Follow, but are allowed do the jumps 10 to Follow.
If anyone wants I will produce my selection of the flat 10 to follow (and PM it to them - my interest ends with the PM).

I'll take a look. Great we are back up & "running" with the Flat Season.
I'd have thought it would start from the Guineas meeting tho??

It used to start at the Guineas meeting, but I guess the delay made that impossible.

That could be interesting Penzance,  but it would be a miracle as they are working on decimal scores.

Looking forward to it after a few near misses it would be great to get in the money.

I'm having to amend my entries continuously! Sad Far Above out for season, King of Change only coming back in the autumn and now Kew Gardens out of Gold Cup.

Acey, it's so good to get in the money.
The first time I did was £10k in Jan 2004, and I got the phone call from the Toat guy at the end of racing that day.
Then in summer 2014 I got £7k for 2nd place in the overall flat comp.  I was beaten a nose.
It isn't life changing money for most of the prizes, but I took my son to Florida with half of the first win.  Cool

They seem to have sorted the scores, but not the leaderboard yet.
My lists with the 4 winners are in 29th place.
There must be some amazing lists ahead of them.

I see the first prize is £64k. They will never get the prize money up unless they go back to the old way of doing it with postal entries as well as online. Only seasoned TTF players like us will enter now. I liked it when the Racing Post book was available with all the entries and no subs!

Report TEN2FOLLOWER June 17, 2020 10:08 AM BST
Clerky, I've sent them an email this morning with some suggestions for the website e.g. the ability to have banker horses.

The NH comp is always far more popular, so should have a really great prize!

Report Clerkmore June 17, 2020 12:57 PM BST
I think you slipped up, TTF. There was a banker facility which I used. What you had to do was build up a portfolio of shortlist horses from the complete list. These then appeared on the right hand side of the screen. There was a plus sign and a heart sign against each horse. If you clicked on the + the horse went into the list you were working on. If you clicked on the heart, the horse automatically went into every list you started. The downside was when I picked a banker and then discovered he wasn't running until later in the season, I had to go into every list to remove him!
Report TEN2FOLLOWER June 17, 2020 4:59 PM BST
Clerky, i used the favourite horse list, but I mean a banker list where all banker appear in every list.

Like Japan did today.  Cry
Report Clerkmore June 17, 2020 8:59 PM BST
Mine did appear in every list. When I had clicked on the heart the horses in question would automatically appear when I commenced a new list.

And like you, Japan was one of them!! Sad

Well I assume I won the inaugural Dirty Harry/Giggity TTF invitational challenge trophy for the jumps?? I got back in contention at Aintree with the big bonus race double with Clan/Fakir (great subCool) but I needed a big race treble on National day to get some prize money but it went down the pan and couldn't be bothered to post about it. Wasn't going to do the flat comp either but then the last minute I scrambled 5 teams together...got my scatter gun out to try to cover all the possible 2000gns contenders and still didn't get it so I've ended up with 5 craap teams. You have different names for your teams so I can't check up on you (although I did remember the Bonie name and saw you put in Sceau Royal as your sub for that team and did have a chuckle when you started a thread about the Jacob ride Happy). Anyway in the Flat comp Team 3 is now currently cantering in 1288th place..
Report harry callaghan May 17, 2021 4:11 PM BST
Yes I’d say you probably won the inaugural jumps running giggity...I presume you had the gold winner...Jacob the rat one of only 2 bets on the week shocker for me...

Yes only a couple from me on the flat I didn’t put much effort in and got the mrs to name the team, it will be back to normal for the jumps as the other lists are named after our old dog...lovely bitch

Anyway we will see giggity I see you had the french guineas winner yesterday fair play, puts you well in front of me (doubtful you can hold on with that muck thoughGrin)...master of the seas out for a bit for me...my 2 lists, one is called “master of the GG” and “stealing gg’s thunder”  but got no chance although the leaders are stacked early

Shame no money in the pot pal, can’t believe people don’t just Chuck a fiver at it, anyway I’ll be gunning for the giggity watch your backHappy

Looking at your number 3 list, might not be much between us...still you’ve got 5 lists so are obviously 2/5 to cop a second victory
Report giggitygiggity May 17, 2021 5:52 PM BST
You've basically got one list as you've done all the same horses in both. You've done your laser guided approach again where as I'm trying to cover as many horses as possible with my scatter gun. I think the winning formula is in between our two methods. Plus I think you need 20 teams which is what I will be doing next jumps season. Flat comp not the same and can understand why there are less entries
Report harry callaghan May 17, 2021 7:04 PM BST
Yes the laser gun approach isn’t working...we will see I suppose but I give it no chance bar a miracle

I still think it should be a tenner to enter, otherwise you end up with a small dividend...when it was a tenner the jumps was worth a million all in and the flat about 170k to the winner so a tenner keeps it honest.

I’m not doing the jumps next season but will still do the ten to follow for an interest...you had a good end of season I see, I can see why you want more lists, you never know...me and a couple of pals made the top 100 in the million pounder one year but I’m on my own now in the comp

Certainly both tailed but my battalion is about to unleash some cannon balls right across giggitys bow “napoleon style”...if I’d got a bit of justice with master of the seas in the Guineas I think I’d already be looking at the giggity/Callaghan cup back on my mantle piece, where it belongs, no doubt needing a good polish mind!!

Hey giggity hope your well. I noticed I stiffed you by 5 points on the flat comp, unlucky palHappy

Nice to have the trophy back where it belongs.

1 all in the series, obviously you had more lists than me this time, nice to make the top 620, I see you were 688 so a fair effort, a gradual improvement from both but still both tailed.

Just finished polishing the trophy. Catch you for the jumps although I’ve not looked at any horses, so will have to trust my Mediocre reading of the form book from past junk over the sticksLaugh
