    Ladies and gents i give you some important news

    Single bets only (win and ew or just place). Selections to clearly state the horse's name, race (if multiple entries), stake and type of bet. All bets settled at SP. Dead heats, full odds to full stake. All place bets settled at 1/4 SP odds as follows:
    15 or more runners - place bets to 4th place
    8 -14 runners - place bets to 3rd place
    6-7 runners - place bets to 2nd place
    Less than 6 runners – win only

    Hi Ron, new to this so please go easy. Can you explain what is wrong here, so I can ensure I don't make the same mistake. It looks ok to me, looking at the rules -I will no doubt slap myself when you explain 'the obvious'.

    Please don't edit selections. If you want to change your selections please reply to your original post and post your changes in the reply. It makes life so much easier. Thanks.

    Lamby, I've picked up your changes because I have only just started recording selections. But from now on I will only be taking corrections posted as requested above (and now stated in the Rules).

    StretchForTheLine has posted one bet as a treble (ie the bet consists of more than one selection). Only single bets are permitted (ie no doubles, no trebles, no lucky 15s etc)

    Just a thought Ron. How about making it a bit of fun and letting people do a Round Robin as well <laugh> <laugh>


    Just the thought of trying to work those bugger of a bet out makes me shiver, let alone actually doing them. Wonder how much more work that would entail <yikes>
