Not being funny David but he could fancy the horse himself and is in with a
chance of winning, what happens if he switches and it wins and costs him
the win
He could of studied the race for ages, what does he do then when he comes in
and sees you have gone for it, does he then switch..makes no sense,
If anything you should of like I have in the past waited until the ones above
me have posted so I could post something that might catch them.
The onus is on you to catch them, not on them to allow you to catch them,, |

trapmouses I except your explaination and this is one of those things that could happen.
davidg3907 I can see your point, so I am not siding with anyone.
blueboy68 your points are of value, and I would of done the same

I think this happened once before in the past and everything was taken sportingly and I suppose selecting the same horse as another player in the closing stages is just coincidence.
If I was in play, I would be going with my selection what ever the out come.
Good luck all. |

Well done Garlicsauce, looks like you won fairly comfortably this month, also bagging the last winner
My plan to sneak up your inside and snatch the win in the shadows on the post, went astray as mine only beat one home
Thanks to meoldmate for all his hard work, scoring the comp  |

Well done to garlicsauce who finished well with the winner of today's selected race, what a finish for second place and brandysnap snatched it on the line with the second at 20/1 to win by a nose "so to speak", very good selection. trapmouses finish in third with davidg3907 in fourth.
Like to say congratulations to our winner garlicsauce, I will have to handicap her for next month.
Well done to brandysnap for coming second.
I would also like to give a bif round of applause to the rest of the members that took part as the scoring was very good and everyone that took part was well up in the points.
Makes my job worth while when I see members taking part and trying to win and hopefully the results everybody got was rewarded in there pocket.
Look forward to seeing you all next month.

Congratulations to GS - good try Trappy One but glad to see your plot got foiled by the actions of the person who returns the SP's at Sandown.

The ludicrous suggestion of waiting till everyone above you in the list has posted simply means the leader holds on till 5 minutes before the race and stops anyone else entering - what ';;'&^^%%$$ !
I posted in the early hours for the reason stated on the post - basically I would not be around all day as unfortunately some of us need to work for a living ( I was out at 7.40 this morning and apart from calling in home for an hour at lunchtime not in again until after 22.00 ) . MAYBE Blueboy is suggesting I posted then !
I could have got more points doing as Blueboy suggested ( am I too late yet ? ) - but obviously this competition is no longer an option for those that go out to work so I shall take my leave. _________________ One-a-day history

It would be disappointing to see you go davidg3907 as your a value member of this competition. Blueboy was just trying to help the situation with his post earlier though if your not about for the majority of the day, then it's difficult to wait around for others to post first.
Meoldmate came up with the solution earlier. All those in contention of prizes come the final day should PM there selections to Meoldmate then let Meoldmate copy/paste them when all selections are in, if he's willing to do so. This way, you get your first choice selection and it will be a fair way to end the month.
Hope you re-consider mate .....  |
