    Quel, still need a NAP or else you won't get one <ok>

    If anyone wants to join late there is still 7 races and only 7/23 have broken into double figures after that race so no real disadvantage joining now.

    Theres always some good value to be had on the AW GDC, picking the favourites is easy. But theres always a big priced place or winner out there. Thought my first was getting home there, however, the favourite away all too quick.

    I thought about a way of incorporating SP into the points tally such that bigger priced winners got more points but I didn't want to put my maths to the test. It is a great idea but I can't go changing the rules now. Next time I'll work it out but I agree that getting the same points for a 1/2 winner and a 10/1 is a bit ridiculous! I tried to avoid everyone napping the same horse by making it 2/1 and above.
