    Looks like we're Billy No Mates Ron? Maybe you should give them until 7pm?

    As we are over subscribed ............................. <laugh>

    It was short notice. Thing is Janabelle, if you had registered before 5pm you could still have had no bets today and place all your bets tomorrow. It was just to see how many were interested and as you can see there has been overwhelming interest

    If you want to make it a 3some be my guest. I will change the heading to see if it gains any more interest

    You can do whatever you want Bustino, as long as they are singles (must change the rules to make everybody aware) <laugh>

    It isn't necessary to bet on tonight's races as the £1,000 was available over the 2 days. Just mentioned that in case the rules may have implied otherwise. To spend it all on day 1 would leave nothing for the main day if all bets lost. So, if you want to hold some back, just say<cheers>

    I'm sure you wouldn't have staked the whole lot on the first day had I made it absolutely clear that it was not necessary to place £1,000 (or anything at all) on day 1

    Anyone who plays today will have £1,000 to spend and that will apply to you as well

    This thread was a total cock up
    1. Too short notice
    2. Rules not made clear
    3. No "best bets" specified

    So I have split the Breeders Cup into 2 separate comps

    The clear winner for Friday was Alleeel with £150 ew on a 9/1 winner and a £100 ew on a loser

    That is an impressive net return of £1720 with only half the allocation staked
