    Please post your bets below. There will be just this thread covering all 3 days

    Rules.
    Each day, pick one horse in each race and nap one of them (NB horses must be named)

    Basic Points
    30 points for first
    20 points for second
    10 points for third
    5 points for 4th in handicaps of 16 or more runners

    Any basic points scored with the nap selection will be doubled

    Price Bonus Points
    There will be price bonus points, equal to the SP, for winners
    If the nap selection wins the Price Bonus Points will be doubled

    NRs may be replaced at any time before the race start time, after which NRs will be replaced by the SP fav (in the event of joint/co favs the one with the lowest race card no).

    Dead heat rules

    NB Please do not edit selections. Any changes to be made by replying to original post. Thanks

    Good luck all

    Try and make an effort to name the horses like everyone else please. Would be much appreciated. Thanks.

    PS I've updated the Rules accordingly.
