By:
Nice one Flemski.Sorry i couldnt get the treble up for us today.
 |

By:
Good day gents, well done
|
|
By:
Well that was a nice days work By Flemski & exactaman really keeping the Shrewdies looking over their shoulders
 Really unfortunate HKF a 50/1 shot robs us of even more rewards See if we can keep it going Petemac, Hilly & Capn to play  |

By:
Cant be helped the late players robbed us even more points

Great picks Flemski and Exactaman. Unlucky HKF. I'd have been on earlier but been unable to get on the site. Good foundation laid for our three remaining Musketeers!! One for all. and all for one!! Haydock saturday looks a corker of a meeting.

I am putting this up on all team threads to hopefully get your agreement to a scoring change, mid-competition, something I don't like doing but I think in this case it warrants it.
The scoring method I use gives back 10pts stake to winners, and doesn't take it off losers, so it makes no difference to winning Win or EW selections. Where the selection is placed, I have been only giving back the 5pts place part of the stake, so the 5pts win stake is deducted but really shouldn't be. So for example Current scoring 1/4 winner gets 12.50 (2.50 profit plus 10pts stake back) 6/1 placed at quarter odds gets 12.50 (7.50 profit plus 5pts stake back) Proposed scoring 1/4 winner gets 12.50 (2.50 profit plus 10pts stake back) 6/1 placed at quarter odds gets 17.50 (7.50 profit plus 10pts stake back) There has been a question on why I give the stake back. I wanted to keep the week's scoring baseline at zero rather than work with minuses for losses. So a team with 8 non-selections or losing selections stays on zero rather than -80, it's just tidier in my opinion and makes no material difference to scoring other than the place anomaly. |

Due to the massive amount of admin required to run this comp, let alone all the others, I'm happy with whatever is easiest for ud
|

By:
Anything that corrects an anomaly against EW betting gets my vote

Flat big race comp, you picked one in the Porsche hcap but there is also the Old Borough Cup. |
|
By:
Im going with Blue Mist at Ascot today. Looking at the table, we have a small buffer to the third so I'll go win only to attempt to claw back the leaders.
|
|
By:
Thanks Hilly
Only Petemac & myself to post HKF did you see note above from Undecided 2 races in Big Hcp comp today |
|
By:

HKF had a look at that race this morning and I tend to agree with you regarding a decent place chance for The Tin Man so gone 5pts ew myself and a little EW bet but never got the 20s
|
|
By:
Well done Team nice to see us in a decent challenging position.
|
|
By:
Gutted I was going Kinross EW but down to 7 runners

|
By:

Haydock 4.00 Count d'Orsay 5pt ew we need a couple of winners to catch over the hill Shrewdies and we need to claw back Humbugs now after their 2 wins already today Good Fortune awaits you guys Im sure  |
|
By:

Wow what a day! Magnifico El Capitano! Sorry wasn't around to witness it couldn't get online this morning or early afternoon then had to go out (unplanned). Just got home and internets working and Stewpots hit the jackpot for us. Good week team, hopefully I'll start to contribute plus points sooner rather than later!!

Well you were promised a roller coaster ride & we certainly had one yesterday
to score 250pts and get beat is a very rare feat in this comp which is quite cruel given the points scoring Once again a solid Team effort guys with four scorers Still it puts us back in contention, but its very early days Donny for 4 days this week so plenty of attractions there for some Round 2 points: Points Team Profit 12.0 The Shrewdies 301.65 8.0 Each Way Thieves 250.27 6.0 Humbugs 210.08 4.0 Racing Demons 186.25 3.0 Cleeve Hill Mob 182.77 2.0 Lucky Pin Club 73.75 1.0 Tips Out For The Lads 60.50 Tot Pts Team Tot Prof Form Best Score 16.0 The Shrewdies 403.40 41 301.65 14.0 Lucky Pin Club 248.50 16 174.75 10.0 Each Way Thieves 331.27 62 250.27 9.0 Cleeve Hill Mob 323.67 35 182.77 9.0 Humbugs 305.71 53 210.08 9.0 Tips Out For The Lads 225.75 27 165.25 5.0 Racing Demons 261.08 74 186.25 |

Must relearn how to post in table format
It was reassuring to know even if I had gone 10pts Win we would still have finished second but even more frustrated Come on you Thieves lets see if we can go one step better this week |
|
By:
I was also wondering if a rotating Captain's armband
is of interest to any any of you guys feel free to voice your views |
|
By:
Great shout yesterday capt, our steady rise continues
|
|
By:
No problems this morning. Tally ho for this week guys!! Thieves'r'us

Im playing Wed, Strait of Hormuz at Donny. I think there's a lot of deadwood in the race, looks an improver with possibly more to come on only 2nd start at trip.
It's a fair ew price. |
|
By:
motseel that was unfortunate yesterday everything going to plan coming into the straight
never mind you can get us off to a flyer next week Hilly it has quite a few pluses, and a few in front of him in the betting have been plunged on before so betting should hold up his stable companion may well set up the pace to whatever we need, a bit of team tactics |
|
By:
Great work, well done Hilly
 excellent teamwork from Graeme & Andrea nice when a plan comes together |
|
