    To mark the Derby meeting I thought I would do another tipping contest in the same way as I did for the Craven meeting earlier in the season.
    The rules are:
    1 horse selected per race
    1st place = 30 points
    2nd place = 20 points
    3rd place = 10 points
    you can select 1 NAP each day which will be worth double points.

    If anyone selects a winning horse at odds of over 20/1 I will add on the SP to the 30 points for winning the race.
    I will call this a "Diamond bonus" :biggrin:

    14 races over 2 competitive days
    Good luck everyone!

    I think you are right Blue, and I think I should be on 70. Looks as though the Oaks 3rd hasn't been included. Could be the difference between winning and coming last <laugh>

    Morning all,

    I have amended the leadeboard as I see I thought that MAYBE had come 3rd in the Oaks instead of THE FUGUE.
    Biggest loser is Woolcombe Folly who now drops to 5th and it is even closer at the top.
