Slight delay while I find out how to settle the joint LRF.

methinks it should be a loser as racecard order should dictate - but not certain

Shane's settled it as a loser so that's good enough for me.
Report bettysboy February 25, 2014 6:15 PM GMT
I'd propose a rule change for LRFs: winners settled as DH, this allows those who cannot post to profit and also rewards those who choose the LRF as an easy selection - but reduces the frustration for those who can and do post?

Or possibly all LRFs settled at a fixed price regardless of SP?

Steamship sailed up 8 places with a 13/2 winning nap,
Aquarius gained a foothold on the podium with a 12/5 success and
dukeofpuke and WeeJimmyMcTavish weighed-in with odds-on winners.
The Fruity Kiwi & his Gerbil and NEW KID IN TOWN hit the bar with decent-priced efforts.

Well done all winners and Good Luck for tomorrow everybody.

Third time's the charm Wink
Report Shanelee1966 February 25, 2014 7:11 PM GMT
The only problem I see with a non selection being classed as a non runner is in the premier and possibly Div`s 1 & 2 at the end of the month in the relegation battles. Some will take the opportunity to settle for a n/r and hope the others lose. It more or less happens now with really short priced selections ie 1/8 1/10 and so on.

I`m all for either settling last race fav as max 6/4 2/1 or d/h on the isp.

You could do away with it altogether and not allow any, but that`s unfair for those on holiday or any other reason you couldn`t post.

- surely not as unfair as those on holiday benefiting from something they didnt pick. Those on holiday would at least not be penalised for not posting. I think them's the breaks - you go on holiday, you're probably not going to win/be promoted that month, but not too likely to be relegated if you have scored some winners.

Hmmmmmmmmmmmm.

So how do we all feel about doing away with instructions (LRF) then, say 10 non posts settled as n/r then -£1 thereafter.

Many would ask others to post for them when on holiday.

Put it this way Reg. Let`s say Mr X is one place above the relegation zone in the premier and he decides not to post on Feb 25th 26th & 27th when he normally posts every day with out fail and is happy with three n/r`s and gets away with it.

I wouldn`t be very happy. I know, I know, tactics are used anyway and not just selecting a 1/20 shot, Mr Y who is just above Mr Z will select the same horse and so on.
