Chuck and TwoNine,

If you're on the forum this afternoon, it's not too late to have another pick. As I said earlier in the thread, you can't actually pick Reclaim as your feature race selection and then pick it again in your $60 worth of extra bets. I'm sorry, but I will only be counting it as a $20 bet, not $40. So you can still put another $20 on the remaining races if you wish.

Sorry sportz, but i was that confident about Reclaim!
$20 Ascot Race 7 Number 2 DANNY BLUE

BTW, How do the odds on an all-up bet work? My all-up for today won, with the first leg paying $3.20 and the second leg $9.20. What sort of return could i expect?

Guess what! Your total return for the day so far is $632.40!!!

The all-up works like this: $20 on Reclaim which paid $3.10. That equals $62. That $62 goes on Baghdad which paid $9.20 giving you a total collect for your all-up bet of $570.40!!!

Okay, here's the results for this week so far. Still one race to go for a couple of tipsters, but Chuck's won this week's comp easily! I'll be back after the last at Ascot to update the leaderboard for December.

G'day sportznut

Sorry, only just saw your post regarding that illegal bet! Didn't know about that rule... thought i'd seen people do what i did in the past. What happened to that $20 in the end?
NOt to worry! There's always next week..
Cheers,
TwoNine

TwoNine,

Actually Chuck did exactly the same thing in the post just before yours so if you looked at that I could understand. You are allowed to pick a horse twice, but only if it's in your all-up bet. Anyway, as it was an honest mistake and you didn't get back on to correct it , I've decided I'll count it simply as a scratching, so that'll take you up to $136 overall. It's going to take something incredible to catch Chuck, but there's no reason why someone else can't pick out a nice all-up like he did.

Cheers sportznut.

Looks like the rest of us will be going all out with some good priced selections to catch Chuck eh!
