    New players most welcome.

    Well this round we get a chance to punch some holes in the boat of our new champion, Ron the Magnificent. Of late the title has been a bit of a poison chalice, with some title holders dropping straight to L2, but maybe not so this week. Ron seems to have found a key to this game with his multi selections in a race, but as I can attest, it's pretty easy to come unstuck when using this ploy. It's hard to stay afloat where you are Ron, so you'd best get ready to make all with the bailing bucket. :) Good luck players.

    5 win singles from the UK and NI.
    Newcomers to L2.
    Count back to split ties.
    Tote odds.
    NR to fav.
    Etc.

    I think I actually covered 3 races last week Cyc. Re the 5 in a race (my norm) it comes completely unstuck when you can't get one of them first past the post but also, if the fav wins, it might not return enough to stay up.

    Yeah I noticed that you split them, but wasn't sure whether it was 2 or 3 races. You've been knocking on the door of late, so the win came as no surprise. Too bad that I don't have the balls to take singles in every race. My 5 in a race game is built on the fav being no shorter than 3s, and the race field no more than 12. :)

    It was a loss of 60p. I only won because everyone else in that league lost more. It's what I'd call a STS win. <laugh>

    I can't believe she's only 6 Reebs, seems to have been around forever. With a sharpener over hurdles behind her and the mares allowance she ought to be very competitive here providing she jumps well. Slightly disappointed there is nothing about her chances on the Alan King website :(

    Main thing, as ever, is that she comes back safe and sound <ok>

    Surely someone put Chelsea's tip in their 5? What a tip.
