FLAT BIG RACE COMP 2022 - Race 35 - November Hcap

The Rules:

The competition will cover 35 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 15 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)

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

Anyone welcome to join at any time.

One of the closest contests for years!

dunter1 - a flat and nh big race comp stalwart, 16th attempt in this version, and in pole position for a first success, previous best 5th place in 2011. Has had a runner-up spot in NH.
THE MUFF FUFFLER - 12th go in the flat renewal, previous best 3rd place in 2018. Has won the NH comp 2021/2.
hong kong fooey - Naps comp legend hasn't targetted this comp as much, 9th is the best so far but with every chance here.
Monte Christo - has just missed a handful of these and managed a best of 4th place in 2014. Well within jumping distance of a first title here.
TheNorfolkMafia - A fifth in 2020 and a good few top ten finishes across the two disciplines, only a 10/1 or so winner away from a possible 1st title.

Could there be final day drama with a big priced winner, last day heavy ground big field, the ingredients are all there?
Good luck and don't forget the NH comp starts next weekend.
