    Maybe just the bottom 1 in a league gets automatically relegated and the top 1 in the league below gets automatically promoted. The other 2 places could be up for grabs depending on the relative profit/loss. Just a thought. I'd feel a bit guilty if I got promoted having made a loss and took the place of someone who got relegated because they had the lowest profit in the league.

    Yeah I thought about making it a smaller change at the L3 level Ron. The problem we have is that some weeks, some can't get there. There are often different players each week. I even thought of reverting to just the 2 moving each week, but decided to stick with the 3 for the volatility. I can't remember who it was (might have been Red) who said he really liked it as it was because he'd gone L1, L2, L3, L2, in successive weeks. I'm just hoping that having just the three in L3 might attract a few others looking for the easy ride. Sometimes I don't know whether I'm coming or going. Anyway Ron, at the moment you are in the box seat. <laugh>

    Pretty mediocre stuff this weekend and as a result my level of form study is not what it has been. That said I've managed to rustle up a few odds on shots to save my bacon in the past so with any luck my position in the top tier will be secured with these . . .

    Warwick - 2.00 - Roi De Rose
    Kempton - 2.50 - Act Of Kalanisi
    Kempton - 2.50 - Swincombe Flame
    Warwick - 3.40 - Neptune Equester
    Kempton - 3.50 - Xenophon

    Best of luck to everyone.

    Whichever race it is at Punchestown (I've forgotten) that Ipsos Du Berlais is running in - Ipsos Du Berlais.

    2-00 war Marodima
    2-30 war Simonside
    3-40 war Sona Sasta
    2-50 Kem Lightning Strike
    3-20 Kem Quotica de Poyens
    ======================
    1-25 War Court Victory
    3-05 war Highland Lodge

    Above the line if Kempton is on. Please use the two under the line as substitutes if Kempton is frozen :) Going against Gallop is risky, but I'm not convinced by Roi De Rose :)

    Good luck all!
