i reckon this would be a cool thing to give a go, whattaya guys reckon??? Same rules as racetab, i.e. 1 nominated race each week, you pick one horse, if it runs a place you go through to next round, if it wins you get immunity and skip the next round, if it doesn't run a place you are ELIMINATED!!!

I know the carnival is over, but we could do it anytime :smile:

Thoughts appreciated

Chuck

sounds like a cool idea Chuck...count me in

sounds good....could be short and sweet...i like it
how would you choose the race.....maybe what ever race has the highest prize money for that week from the 5 states

Sandown classic is this week isnt it
count me in too

Count me in

Another survivor torch bearer coming right up. IN!

Probably give it a miss
No chance with you experts all lining up

Please don't let me go out in the first leg so's I don't have to wait until the next competition starts,which would probably be Xmas unless it is a daily tipping competition.
I'm in.

I've just joined Pro Punter and I'll jump in at the deep end and join the tipping club too !!!

Haven't joined the other tipping comps but this one looks good. Count Ricardo me in too.

Chuck, do you want to start this week or wait until our tipping comp has finished?

hmmmm...tricky business...not sure...what do you think? I'd say we could do it Sandown Classic day as the opener...

Its only one race so it wouldnt be too much of a drama.
suggestion for weeks following take highest prize money race in australia for that saturday
cheers :cool:

I'll give it a go

count me in

me 2

OK

and if your horse is scratched ???

Perhaps Sub-Fave or Topweight. But you have to post a selection you cant just not post and be given the Fave or Toppie.

We can always Count Ricardo on you Mr ed. Sounds good to me.

Well if my tips scratched I believe I should be entitled to my money back so's I can invest it the following bet.
NO SUBS!

sounds good

When do you plan on starting?

Moeee this would not work as there is no money to reinvest there is only one race a week to pick a horse in, so if you dont have a horse then sorry but your off the island.

count me in

Sorry moeee and others, but i think subs are the only way to go or you are gooooone.
Otherwise, we could use this idea i was thinking of:
You have a first pick and a first reserve.
Same rules for the first pick as before, but if it is scratched, then your reserve takes its' place - but it can only WIN for you to stay in the comp

Chuck

Yeah i like the win only idea so you can stay in....would be better that way if you get knocked out in the first round you want have to wait to many weeks till a new one comes along and i like the idea of two selections 1 first pick and one reserve incase of scratching....if both are scratched i think it is just to bad and you are out....after all you won't have to wait to long if the win betting is used instead of place

Very likely starter subject to final rules.
I’m okay with starting this week. If we do likely I’ll concentrate on this comp and forget the other. I would have only been picking roughies in any case.

Ditto.

I will start this week...just have to win the last comp first

New to this site but i see no reason why not to get involved. Looks like it will be an environment the real deal will relish.

I am very concerned about going out in the first round and having to wait till Xmas to have another try.
Is the idea to find the shortest priced horse racing in Australia or are we confined to betting only on a particular race?

Just one race. It'll be the Sandown Classic, so you can think about it now.

I've decided I'll be starting up another month long tipping comp in December, for anyone who wants to have a go. Along with this Survivor idea, there'll be plenty of chances to put your tips up against those of the other forumers.

What's the prize? :wink:

I'd love to have a dip but I'm off to sunny Gold Coast for 10 days with not very good internet access.

My tips on the other thread will be there for this weekend but probably not next.

Good luck with survivor, I'll be interested to see who's still standing when I return.

My money's on Shaun or shy if she gets involved (by the way where is she these days?) :smile:

Who is this 'shy'?

shy is a forum member who used to be here a while ago. She did very well with placegetters in a competition a while back.

Shy's a wicked girl. Aren't you Shy. :wink:

IM IN

me as well

Well I'm more a sheep than a goat,so can someone get this ball rolling?
