Another bright new dawn! Laugh

The final table for October will be up around 8ish in its customary separate thread, where I will do my final comment and the championship, places etc will be confirmed.

The new monthly comp starts here, and anyone who fancies joining in is more than welcome. All you need is the patience to find the daily naps. Don't worry if you think you can't pick horses. Neither can a lot of these guys!!! LaughLaughLaugh (Ooooooonly half jokin'!) And you never know - you might surprise yourself! (I know I did!)

And now ... the rules ...

1. - You have to choose 1 horse each day. Winners will be returned at SP/Industry Prices and stake is 1 point. If no SP/Industry Price is returned winning selections will be settled as non-runners. Non selection means a loser.

2. - All UK and Irish races are eligible along with the Dubai Festival and the Sunday Arc de Triomphe meet.

3. - Selections must be made AT LEAST 1 hour before your selected race. Failure to comply will result in the selection being declared Invalid and treated as a Non Selection.

4. - Selections may be changed as long as it is BEFORE 1hr prior to original race OR if selection is a NR or deemed invalid ( Rule 3 MUST still be adhered to).

5. - Rule 4 and Dead Heat rules will apply to SP/Industry Prices.

6. - Sunday selections
will be optional. No deductions for non posters. (it will be compulsory if Sunday is last day of the month).

7. - LAST DAY RULES for every last day of the month : all selections must be made BY THE SCHEDULED OFF OF THE FIRST RACE of the day, you can't choose an horse already selected and only named horses are allowed (no instructions).

8. Instructions to cover holiday / day can't post will be allowed but under the following STRICT guidelines :
- The dates for which instructions are to be used must be clearly stated (Sundays will not have instructions applied unless EXPLICITLY stated otherwise).
- Instructions will be applied to UK races only UNLESS explicitly stated otherwise.
- Only 10 days on instructions which do not name horses (i.e last fav , Spotform's nap etc) will be allowed each month. Once that has been exceeded one point per day will be deducted.
- Horses selected from the five day entries will be allowed. If they do not run they will be treated under the non runners rule and will not count towards the 10 day instruction maximum.
- In the case of more than one favourite in a race Instructions will be settled on the favourite with lowest race-card number.

9. In the event of a tie the person who has used least instructions will be deemed to finish above the person they have tied with.

10. In the event of a major Betfair upgrade which may affect the ability to post on the Forum before racing starts that day will have Sunday rules applied (ie. no deduction for non-posters).

And an important reminder of something that catches people out:

Instructions and the 1 hour Rule:   

You must post a selection at least one hour before the off time of your instruction.                       
Anything posted after that cut-off time will be deemed an Invalid Selection and the Instruction will take precedence.                       
Non-runners can of course be replaced
