I hope the FA & ITV don't mind, but we are taking advantage of the coincidence that they are drawing 64 balls for the 3rd round of the FA Cup and we just happen to need a similar draw on the same day!
So I will assign all players with a number, 1-64, and as the numbers are drawn for the FA Cup 3rd round, I will post the matches, live, on this thread.
The draw will take place after the live match, approximately 2.30pm I believe.
There will be no further draws for subsequent rounds, it will be Wimbledon style with the path through to the final mapped out. So the first two numbers drawn will be Match 1, 2nd two numbers drawn will be Match 2, and then the winner of Match 1 plays the winner of Match 2 and so on.
I will post a full list of players and draw numbers here when finalized, there's a latest list of confirmed players on the other thread, the numbers you see assigned there won't change.
Perhaps someone would like to price up a market once the draw is made?
I'll post the format & rules here later also.

This will be the format for the competition, it might not be to everyone's liking, but I let's see how it pans out and maybe we can tweak it for any future comp.
It will be mainly NH races, although of-course the weather may have a say in that. (There will be three compulsory races to select from).
The races will be the most competitive available but with an eye on quality too.
SP will not be taken into account, so it's more about finding the winner rather than value, shouldn't be any shorties in the type of race chosen.
I was going to disallow duplicates within each match, however I've had a rethink, to save everyone trawling through all the selections trying to find your opponents, duplicates will be allowed but in the event of a scoring tie on points and same no. of winners/placers, if there is a duplicate selection in the match then the player who posted first will win through.
Players will play each other on a knockout basis.
Each round will take place on a Saturday
Round 1 (last 64) - 10 Dec
Round 2 (last 32) - 17 Dec
Round 3 (last 16) - 7 Jan
Quarter Finals - 14 Jan
Semi Finals - 21 Jan
Final & 3rd place play-off - 28 Jan
I will pick 3 races, on the Thursday/Friday before each round, 2 will be NH and one AW, weather permitting. (This will be increased to 4 races for the semi-finals onwards).
Players will be required to pick one horse from each of those 3 races.
All selections must be in by the time of the first race of that particular round.
Non runners can be replaced only up to the time of the first race.
You will get points for each selection's finishing position down to 4th place.
Winner = 10pts
Runner-up = 6pts
3rd = 4pts
4th = 2pts
Player with most points for all 3 races wins the match.
In the event of a scoring tie, the player with most winners/runners-up/3rd/4th placers in that order, will win through.
Next, if still equal, if there was a duplicate selection in the match then the player posting first will go through.
If that doesn't separate players, or in the event of a 0v0 tie then we'll look at who had most 5th placed selections or 6th etc.
Finally if that still doesn't produce a result then the player who posted their selections first will go through.
Example:
Player A has one winner, one 5th place and one 7th, that's 10pts for the winner and none for the others.
Player B has one 2nd, one 3rd and one 6th, that's 6pts for the 2nd plus 4pts for the 3rd = 10pts.
So it's a tie but Player A will go through because they had the winner.
Another example:
Player A has a 2nd, 4th and 6th, that's 6+2 = 8
Player B has a 2nd, 4th and 5th, that's the same 6+2 = 8
Player B wins because of the better 5th position finisher.
You will be asked to start your post with your match no. & players names.
You can copy it from the list I'll post at the start of the thread, so it will look something like:
Match 25 - undecided v Mully
3.0 Chelt - Best Mate
3.15 Donc - Kauto Star
5.50 Wolves - Zenyatta

Reminds me of when Ivan Lendl was seeded number one

I feel you underestimate your chances of getting past the first round ud 
UD. I think your odds on me are a bit
skinny.If the three races were all
class 6 h,caps on the A/W ,i would have
a small investment.I think i am the least
likely from the Thieves stable

My 3 at 80-1 that are worth an investment
1) the dealer. Handpicked by The Humbugs as known to be a shroodie. In his brief spell in the Naps Tables got £80 profit one month.
2) shearer. Alright another Humbug but a consistent scorer. Retired from The Naps Tables as Premiere League Champion a few months ago.
3) GEORGE B . Not A humbug. But has been doing very well in The Premiereship in recent months without quite winning it.
Not saying they are more likely than Josh Monk or HKF but value is value

LOL, salmon spray, that'll be my cue to have a shocker this month and be relegated
Fwiw, here are my 3 against the field at 80-1:
1) salmon spray, because SP is irrelevant and ss usually has a decent win % each month.
2) bettysboy, 'cos he's my team captain and I don't want to be sacked 'cos I didn't put him up at a price
3) Andrew in Sweden, 'cos now ss has put the mockers on me I can green up when Andrew progresses to the next round

Casting my memory bank back many years some of the players knocking around in the latter stages were...
Ricky Santini, Moose & Book.

I've had a first glance at Saturday's decs, an obvious choice is the big hcap at Cheltenham, the Spinal Research Gold Cup @ 2.30.
Then maybe the 3.20 Donc, the BetVictor Hcap Chase.
As for the AW, I was hoping the Class 2 Hcap at Wolves, the 8.20, would be suitable but there are only 14 declared at the moment, I will wait and see on Thursday, if the field stays double figures that would be first choice, otherwise it's probably the Class 5 first race at Wolves.
My intention is to confirm on Thursday evening.

George B, you shouldn't have any problem in the first round, I couldn't tip a wheelbarrow over at the moment ;-)
UD, what happens in the event of a non-runner and the poster is unaware and too late to repost ?
Fair question, should we substitute a token pick, say no.1 on the racecard or allow one reserve per race (might get a bit messy) or just tough luck?
Not sure, open to suggestions.

Non Runners
I would be happy with No1/topweight solution
If the book is still open value looks to be
Dukeofpuke 80-1
Maltwhiz 80-1
Moose 66-1

Replace with fav seems fair enough.
I only asked because i'm away the next 2 weekends, although I can post on a Friday

Forgot to ask. Are we keeping the walkover rule? i.e- if your opponent is a no show, as long as you post you're through.
Yes Mully.
As for using the FAV as a replacement for non-runners, I'm not so sure, in a format that favours favs, is it fair? Maybe ok, Mully what do you think?

You know, thinking back I think I may have substituted the fave come to think of it for non-runners (lowest race card no. for joints etc). It's that long ago but it rings a bell haha.
Still give people the option to come in and substitute their NR right up until the off if they have access to do so though.

If successfully negotiating what is an admittedly tricky 1st round tie, the 40/1 available on platinni will look huge imo
