    The Glorious Goodwood Betting Competition - Wednesday

    Rules
    1. At the start of the competition you will have a bank of £1,000 to bet as you like throughout the meeting on any of the televised races (all on Channel 4)
    2. You may only bet with money remaining in the bank
    3. You may lay each others' bets but the offer must be clearly stated in this thread and the offer must be accepted in this thread. Once the offer is made it must be accepted unless withdrawn in this thread before any acceptance has been posted in this thread. The offer may only be made if the remaining bank is sufficient to cover the liability
    4. Bets may be single or multiples, win, ew, ew all in, or place only
    5. All bets must bear the name of the horse(s) and the race
    6. If the named horse does not run in the named race it will be deemed a NR (ie the stake will not automatically be placed on the same horse if it runs in a subsequent race)
    7. If a bet is made on a horse not in a televised race the bet will be void
    8. Bets will be permitted at the best available odds* and must be clearly stated along with the selection. All available Tote bets will be permitted in which case returns will be as stated on the Racing Post site. Otherwise all odds will be deemed SP as stated on the Racing Post site.
    9. Ante post bets will be permitted but the available bank must be reduced by the stake at the time the bet is placed and the odds must be clearly stated
    10. All bets to be advised, on this thread at least 5 mins before the relevant race
    11. For the purposes of this competition all place bets will be at 1/4 odds and will apply as follows:
    2-4 runners No place betting allowed
    5-7 runners 1st and 2nd one quarter the odds
    8+ runners 1st, 2nd and 3rd one quarter odds
    Handicaps 16+ runners 1st, 2nd, 3rd and 4th one quarter odds
    Number of runners for determining odds will be the number that came under starters orders regardless of whether or not they took part
    12. If any doubt the result posted in the Racing Post will be final.

    * To avoid complication, "best available odds" are only available up to mid day on the day of the race and must be available from 1 or more of the following (as shown on the ATR site above individual races):
    Ladbrokes
    Victor Chandler
    Bet 365
    Coral
    Paddy Power
    Boyle Sports
    888sport
    Stan James
    SkyBet
    Blue Square
    William Hill

    Entry to the competition is dependent on having declared your interest before the first race in the competition. Except latecomers will be able to join in before the start of any day's racing but will be deemed to have lost £200 for each day's racing missed.

    If there are any questions please post them below.

    Good luck to all who enter.

    Ron, sorry again to query but I think you have "done" me. I spent £490 as follows: 3 x £50 e/w 1 x £25 e/w plus £20 patent so £510 left plus winnings : £25 e/w Namibian 7/1 = £268.75 and £20 Strong Suit 5/2, £20 Requinta 6/1 and £20 double = £70 plus £140 plus £490 = £700 plus £268.75 = £968.75 plus £510 = £1478.75. I realise the N/R messed it up but it was only delared a N/R around 1.30.

    Beefy & WF. Do your lays replace the original bets. If your original bets stand then I don't think you have enough in the bank to cover your liabilities.

    One good turn deserves another. However we may have a mathematical problem- I can't lay you more than £875 at evens if I've lost £2000 on CC on your lay bet I'm down to £1750 in my bank <laugh> How much you want on- we can compromise though if you want more, I'll simply reduce my stake with you so that we're both happy? Say £1250 each? :emoticon-0150-hands

    I think this stake will mean we're both covered. Any higher and one of us won't be capable of fulfilling our pay out, we'd be broke bookies Woolcombe <laugh>
