FLAT BIG RACE COMP 2026 - Race 29 - Virgin Bet 2.0 Good

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.

Virgin Bet Hcap - Goodwood 29 August

RES:- Addison Grey.

Thanks.

Just tried posting the table again and it's gone to moderator.
Perhaps the AI robot has taken a dislike to my one star edit of TMF so I'll try THE M**F FUFFLER.

No it's not that, must be something else in the table they have taken a dislike to, no idea what.

Aah I know, it will be the abbreviation for one of the race names that could be construed as the posterior, dear oh dear

Undecided - I will be away for the next two Saturday races, so can I have 1 point on nos. 1 and 2 on all races.
Thanks very much
