Here are the rules for the season. Any questions then fire away please.

Stake - We will start as usual with a mythical 300 points and bets will either be 10 WIN or 5 EW. Your winnings will be added to your 300 and your losses deducted.

Race - The race each Saturday will normally be the richest race of the day. However, this rule will be slightly flexible when it comes to big meetings.

Each Way - EW places will be as per most bookmakers for handicaps ( 2 places in fields of less than 7, 3 places in fields of 8-15 inclusive and 4 places for fields of 16 or over ) but only for handicaps remember. And EW will ALWAYS be a 1/4 of the odds.

Missing a race - Like the NH racing contest we had recently, if you miss a race a 25 point deduction will be incurred. However, if you know you will miss a race ( due to holiday etc ) then you can either chose in advance a horse number or say select the 2nd fav or message me with your choice. This way you will always be in play.

Non Runner - If you select a horse that is a NR your selection will go onto the favourite. So if your original selection was ew it will go ew on the fav and so on. In the case of co or joint favourites then it will be the lowest racecard number.

The season will start this coming Saturday
Start will be the 2000 Guineas this weekend
End will be the November Handicap on 8th November

Thanks

Also like the recent NH comp I will accept any DM's you wish to send me before the season starts so if you miss a race you are always in

For example - Chris, RA and Hibs all messaged me with selections, eg number 7 to win or 3rd favourite ew and so on. So therefore they never miss a race as I always have a selection for them

If you wish to do that, then feel free, it guarantees you will be in every race.
