3.50 Tiger Cliff
4.25 Meccas Angel
5.00 Sennockian Star
5.35 Normal Equilibrium

We have a tie with Hansell having looked like he had thrown it away nicked a 3rd in the lucky last to Dead Heat with cantos
Cuishla dt and jmclaugh werent far behind.
jmclaugh top scored today with 3 winners and a place in all 7 races

Because i havent declared a rule for dead heats the result will stand
I will put in a clause next time(most winners over the week then 2nds if tied etc etc)

Thanks for playing

Well done guys. I thought this week was the hardest to find winners of all the recent comps. Wonder if it's the lowest winning score
Not sure if I'm happy with 4th after I thought I was going to win it in the final furlong...

Cheers tso

Well done to our two winners.

Just noticed that quite a few of my reserves won, with my first choices coming nowhere. Similar happened in the Sunday Prediction Game were I think for 3 of the first 4 weeks my reserve won (but my first choice ran so I didn't get the points). Since then i've stopped picking reserves in advance for the most part.

I wait for years to win one of these comps, and like buses 2 come along together.

Thanks TSO for running the comp and well done also to Hansel.

I thought my luck had run out after my last 2 selections both threw away final furlong leads to finish unplaced.

Had I chosen my reserves as first picks today and yesterday, I would have ended up on around 80 points overall.

Thanks for running the Comp by the way. Will there be one for the St Leger Festival?

Another excellent comp as always tso.

Took me too long to get going this week, but pleased to have crawled my way up the table a bit (and win the in-house bragging rights).

Mrs would have done both her first and reserve choice for real money, so it wasn't too bad a week in the end.
