Sportz,

My impression was scratching money was added to the score but wasn't available to bet with the following week[?]

My main gripe is the 8 selections that could use a decent trim. Quantity betting serves no obvious purpose for the tipsters or scorer either [your not flogging tips are you sportz [?] :-) ].
Often there isn't 4 races on a card worth betting on. How about we cut it down to 6 races. 3x3 ? We might get more team members turning up and it's a long haul comp.

Anyhow, a good effort by all concerned so far and even Collingwood won last night [naturally].

Goldcoaster 4th June 2006 07:10 AM

Job well done Sportz......is just a bit of fun

breadman 4th June 2006 08:26 AM

i think 8 selections is fine. Again i think you are taking it a little seriously - if there isn't 4 races on the card worth betting on then tip on a race your not betting on ;) I don't think its 8 selections that are scaring people away also, sometimes people forget their in these comps, or just don't remember their tips

Sportz this is a great idea IMHO, thanks for all the effort its proving to be a fun comp so far .

crash 4th June 2006 09:31 AM

Thanks for your input chuck.
Well I'm not going to rock the boat. I threw a jumps race in yesterday with a tip off the top of my head [50m shorter and it would have won!]. I'll just do a bit more of that sort of thing.
I like the idea of this comp. and appreciate all the effort sportz. We'll see soon enough I guess if it all pans out OK. I hope so anyway.

Cheers.

luv2bet 4th June 2006 10:42 AM

******, Sorry to the allstars, couldnt get near a computer friday and only briefly saturday, if I had of known the comp was starting this week wouldve made more of an effort. Look forward to next week.
Well done though, some nice results!!!!

Sportz 4th June 2006 12:01 PM

We'll let you off the hook this time, but we'll expect to see a note the next time you're absent. :D

Sorry All Stars,

Umrum, Leroy, Crash, mad you carried two of of us...

Was an abysmal effort and I should be dropped to the ressies to kick the dew this week....

I'll work hard on the track and do some extra sessions this week...

crash 5th June 2006 11:34 AM

Don't sweat it mate. Never knock poor tipping, because as sure as the wind blows, we all get our turn at it :-)

Yeah, that's the idea. Don't quite see what the confusion is here. If the money is refunded and added onto your score, then you can hardly get extra money to bet with the following week as well.

So does that mean I get $10 bucks for me scratching :D .... be nice to erase that duck egg beside my name!

Sportz 5th June 2006 01:30 PM

Oh poo. Didn't see your scratching.

Yes, you do have $10 to your name now and that's $10 more for the team.

The form guide I record all the scratchings in (Friday's Courier Mail) doesn't even include Perth racing believe it or not, so I didn't have those scratchings in front of me. When I checked the results on Unitab, I must have missed it!!! :o

See Stix, you have added $10 to our total by NOT betting a horse. Keep up the good work:-)

Thought I'd let you know that Facing The Breeze is an early scratching.

Or is that why you chose it??? :D

St Basil is a backmarker. Barrier 1 is the backmarkes nightmare and especially in this race. Even the trainer isn't a believer. The best lay of the carnival. All team members besides ALL STARS please ignore this as drivel and make St Basil your special:-)

Cant believe I didn't change one of my bets in QLD to Ice Chariot [my biggest bet of the day]. Definitely a seniors moment. Still, ALL STARS have to allow a few crumbs for the opposition after last week's hiding.

Sportz 10th June 2006 07:01 PM
