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 a Rest Day, which will be settled as an optional day Non selection. However, once the total of such Rest Days for a month reaches 5, further days when no selections are made in that month will be classed as a losing No selection
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 Rest days) 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.

shane it might be worth you having a word offline with our resident halfwit on here.
It's clear from what he posts and the way in which he posts that he's retarded in some way, so I won't openly have a go at him.

If—
By Rudyard Kipling
If you can keep your head when all about you
Are losing theirs and blaming it on you,
If you can trust yourself when all men doubt you,
But make allowance for their doubting too;
If you can wait and not be tired by waiting,
Or being lied about, don’t deal in lies,
Or being hated, don’t give way to hating,
And yet don’t look too good, nor talk too wise:
If you can dream—and not make dreams your master;
If you can think—and not make thoughts your aim;
If you can meet with Triumph and Disaster
And treat those two impostors just the same;
If you can bear to hear the truth you’ve spoken
Twisted by knaves to make a trap for fools,
Or watch the things you gave your life to, broken,
And stoop and build ’em up with worn-out tools:
If you can make one heap of all your winnings
And risk it on one turn of pitch-and-toss,
And lose, and start again at your beginnings
And never breathe a word about your loss;
If you can force your heart and nerve and sinew
To serve your turn long after they are gone,
And so hold on when there is nothing in you
Except the Will which says to them: ‘Hold on!’
If you can talk with crowds and keep your virtue,
Or walk with Kings—nor lose the common touch,
If neither foes nor loving friends can hurt you,
If all men count with you, but none too much;
If you can fill the unforgiving minute
With sixty seconds’ worth of distance run,
Yours is the Earth and everything that’s in it,
And—which is more—you’ll be a Man, my son!

scissors - you are overstepping the mark with soldier. His way of napping is not my style but is well within the rules.
Banter is encouraged, gowd knows I`ve dished it out and taken it. The comp is all about having a bit of fun. That`s even more
important than the rules. So, whatever you type, type it with a smile.

Hi shane, good to be back, only lasted one month last time but it's win or bust with me so we'll see how it goes.
If you will permit, seeing as how there are 30 days in June, I'll post one Premier player's stats per day and we'll start with the champ:
Player Stats Profile
Draw1
since Jan 2013:
Average monthly score -2.97
Best score +20.61
Worst Score -11.07
since Jan 2014:
Best League Position - Premier winner May 2015
Average strike rate 43.9%
14 straight months in Div 1 and now in 4th Premier month.
Skirted with danger a couple of times in Div 1 finishing in 25th but also missed out on promotion narrowly when 6th, before finishing 3rd in February this year.

He is a disgrace to the Division shane 
It says "Competition"
Why not just say " give me the shortest price runner
Of the day " and be done with it. -- save on typing.
Him Calling himself a Half wit is no excuse .
BUT I have made my point .. So I will now desist from
Pointing out the inadequacy of his "selections"
in THIS division In particular.
Has £6 EVER won the Prem Shane ??
As That's what 30 days of 1/5 winners
Means
Maybe he gets the point now , do you think ????
Complete with the grins.
I will desist.
You can lead a Donkey to water .... Etc..

Thanks for the stats Undecided. And keep up the good work Shanelee..... with a smile.
soldier doesn't always pick the shortest - priced runner scissors,though I admit he could be a LITTLE bit more adventurous like me
He DID get relegated a year or two ago but he was soon back up again so he knew how to pick a few longer-priced winners when he needed to.

Salmon -- i meant it = i will desist.
As Shane said -- Each to his own.

Undecided -- your new task sounds very interesting
And will be a nice sideline read for us all.

I rather fear that undecided will point out that I have been in the Premiership since before the Norman Conquest,which will of course lead to my relegation this month
