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. Subject to Rule 8, failure to post will be deemed a Non Selection and 1 point will be deducted.
2 - All UK and Irish races are eligible along with the Dubai Festival and the Sunday Arc de Triomphe meet.
3 - Selections must be posted 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 at least 1hr prior to the original race OR if the 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 unless it is the last day of the month. On optional Sundays there will be no deductions for non-posters and Rule 8 will not apply.
7 - LAST DAY RULES for the last day of the month : all selections must be made BY THE SCHEDULED OFF TIME OF THE FIRST RACE of the day, you can't choose a horse already selected by another competitor in the same division, and only named horses are allowed.
8 - On any day that a competitor does not post (excluding Sundays and final days) they will automatically revert to the Last Race Favourite ( "the last race being the latest of ALL races that qualify for the competition that day") However, once the total of non-posting days for a month reaches 10, further days where no selection is made in that month will count as a Non Selection. In the case of more than one favourite in the race it will be settled on the favourite with lowest race-card number. Competitors will be able to opt out of this rule, in which case the standard Non Selection rule will apply.
9 - Reserve selections will only be allowed to cover the possibility of a meeting being abandoned.
10 - In the event of a tie the person who has used least "instructions" (ie Last Race favourite) will be deemed to finish above the person they have tied with.
11 - 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).
12 - Quite often, things can crop up that aren`t strictly covered by the above rules (grey areas) in these instances please abide by the individual settler`s decision/ruling.

Okay, listen up Prem rabble. Shane's departure for sun-soaked sin allows a perfect opportunity to sort this Div out once and for all. So, new rules, as of today, and no arguments:
1 - No naps under 10/1
2 - Even THINKING about odds-on shots will result in instant relegation to Div 1 (Div 2 if it's less than 1/2). They will be replaced by napsters of my choosing, with petemac as first choice, chavman second and that capital Norfolk geyser sogy third
3 - I am introducing a new handicapping system, so Lampus will start on -100 to make sure he doesn't win it again
4 - My NBF china castle will start on +50 to ensure he has a reasonable chance of victory
5 - salmon spray's naps will not be noted at all and I'll put him just above or just below the relegation zone line depending on how I feel (ie, if he's especially nice to me or not)
Sounds fair enuf, dunnit? I should coco!
Anyway, best of luck for the coming month!
