FLAT BIG RACE COMP 2019 - Race 26 - Ebor

The Rules:

The competition will cover 30 or so of the most competitive races of the Flat season.

A thread on which selections can be posted will be put up a couple of days before the race and selections can be made up to 1/2hr before race time.

Players are given 2 stake points per race.
Players can use the 2pts on 1 selection or share the 2pts between 2 selections, 1pt each.
Points will be awarded based on each selections finishing position down to 5th place.
Results will be settled at SP.

1st place will get stake x 14 x SP
2nd place will get stake x 7 x SP
3rd place will get stake x 4 x SP
4th place will get stake x 2 x SP
and 5th place will get stake x 1 x SP


Non-runners:
If you choose one selection, please nominate a reserve just in case of late withdrawal.
If you choose two selections and one is a non-runner, your 2pts will go on the remaining selection, unless you left a reserve.
In either case you can replace a non-runner as normal up to the 1/2hr cut-off time.
If you make a selection with no reserve, and it doesn't run, your 2pts will go on the favourite (in case of jt or co favs then the 2pts will go on the one which is highest in the hcap)
Non-posting or selecting from the wrong race will not entitle you to a substitution for the favourite.

In the event of dispute, my decision will be final.

Anyone welcome to join at any time.

probably too late now but this weekends 7.15 Chelmsford (AW) 7f Betfred Chelmsford City Cup (Heritage Handicap) (Class 2) (3yo+ 0-105) would of been suitable

AW?  Yuk.

I'd have picked the 1.50S Gnaad

This weekend's race will be either the Lavazza Stakes or the Old Borough Cup, they are of similar quality so let's say that the one with most runners will be the choice.
That would currently point to the latter as the max field size is 17 as opposed to 16 but as usual I will confirm on Thursday pm.

Still having problems Ud expect postal selection

..both have 17 declared runners :-)

Not quite, it's the Cunard that has 17 not the Lavazza Heritage, and yes I could have considered the Cunard too but seeing as how I narrowed it down last week, let's not complicate so it will be the Old Borough Cup at Haydock!
Final Answer

Sorry got excited as Ripp Orf deserves a win this year and G/F at Ascot is just right.

I wish you well backing it anyway, haven't looked at any of these in detail yet but will relish a go at big field hcaps given the dearth of them midweek nowadays.
