Due to our extraordinary consistency ( never below 5th ) we are now tying for the lead. It`s all rather close though. One more fortnightly round to go before the summer break. It would be nice to be very close at worst. Nothing then until Sept.
Can I ask again that people DO post their selections on here. Everybody was very good for a while,but there has been a little bit of slippage. It really does help.

He got one placed which was enough to put us in the lead as it would appear no other team has managed to score.

Good morning Humbugs.
We are short of 3. Not worried about Deep I or barny at this stage. A bit more unusual that we haven`t heard from de44ek4.He hasn`t slipped one past Lord Lampus of Haggis and myself during the week. He posted in The Naps Tables yesterday though.

Report undecided • June 11, 2011 7:39 PM BST
shearer, 4pm is the latest for posting selections on a Saturday, so non-runners can't be replaced after this time I'm afraid.
Report salmon spray • June 11, 2011 7:47 PM BST
Yes. Fair enough ud. Too late this year but I really don`t like that rule. If there are good reasons for it I am going to try and get The Humbugs to pick in races up to 3.45 only on Sats. Been doing it myself for some time.
Report undecided • June 11, 2011 8:03 PM BST
well salmon, the thinking behind it is to prevent tactical play late on if a team knows say they only need a few points to gain position and are tempted to play ew odds on shot for instance. Perhaps there's nothing wrong with that, I don't know, always willing to listen to feedback on rules.
Report salmon spray • June 11, 2011 8:48 PM BST
Lol. Yes I remember doing that once. See your point but until I stopped myself I was spending much of Sat afternoon on here checking for n/rs. We always used to get 8 in if nothing else. This will be the 3rd time recently we have only had 7 because we have been caught out by late n/rs.
Report salmon spray • June 11, 2011 8:51 PM BST
In fact I`ve just realised we only have 6. Another one in the last at Limerick.
Report salmon spray • June 11, 2011 11:36 PM BST
That is infuriating. I think we are one of the better organised teams but we have really been suffering from that rule recently. Perhaps given that it`s Ascot we make all our picks by Friday next week and let the others catch us hopefully.
We are 2nd btw,which is the good news.
