After the excitement of the winter comp going to the last day it's time to turn our attention to the flat and the summer competition.

The comp will start this coming Sunday with the 1000 Guineas. I'll put the card up on Friday when the final declarations are out

The comp will run until around the end of October and I'll pick a date nearer the time when the fixtures are out

The rules are the same as they have been for the last few competitions.......

Rules

Races will be chosen on Sundays from the UK and Ireland and maybe the odd one from France (the Arc !)

Generally it will be the best race of the day subject to a reasonable field size.


Scoring format:

1st place - 10
2nd place in races of 5 runners or more - 5
3rd place in races of 8 runners or more - 2
4th place in handicaps of 16 runners or more - 1

If tied on points then 'the most winners' will decide table positions. If one or more are tied on points and 'most winners' at the end of the competition I'll have a tie-break race


Non Runners and Missed Weeks

I'm not going to substitute for non runners automatically. A non runner will just count as a missed week unless the poster posts a replacement selection before the 'off' time.

There will be no penalty for missing races........apart from the fact that you won't score any points.

If you know you're going to be away you can PM me a selection formula, eg number 1 or forecast favourite........


Reserves

Posters who post their selections early might like to post reserves. Any reserves will be taken in order in the event of several non runners


New players welcome !..........

I thought it might add some interest if I included a separate mini-league for the main online racing sites.......the Post, Life, Timeform and ATR Be interesting to see how they do against each other and how we do against them !

Todays selections.....

Post - Tapestry
Life - Bracelet
ATR - Tapestry
Timeform - Miss France

ps.......I was going to include RUK but their write up is exactly the same as ATR......word for word.......
