Now, THAT was close!!! I did think it had some hope, so I had a little each way bet. I was getting a tad excited there.

Great finish from Goldcoaster with Soul Diva getting up and paying $29.80. Wasn't quite enough though. Here are the final standings:

Crash $1,208.00
Goldcoaster $1,103.00
Horse Whisperer $754.00
Raw Instinct $732.00
Sportz $690.00
Chuck $615.00
Makybe Diva $592.00

Mr Quaddie $582.00
Spartacus $403.00

Well done, Crash.

Nice late charge from Goldcoaster [hope he backed it]. I consider my effort no more than a lucky couple of selections. Thank Sportz for the great effort in running the comp. Next time for sure you should score for the place. For the work that must have been involved in this, you are the real winner.

Cheers, Crash.

Yes, if I do something like this again, I'll definitely count placings.

Ready When You Are would have been good! ;)

Not that I had any chance on winning it but I must be the unluckiest prick with blackbooked horses not racing. First scratchings and now meetings being abandoned!

Thanks again Sportz for running it.
