Hi Silver ans Sand,

I thought C.William has more than 1 winner. What does the jockey based on? The main race or the whole meeting?

Yep, Craig Williams had a couple of winners last night at the Valley. That was a great effort of his too on Carrara. Did you see that still shot at the finish line of him with his arm outstretched pushing Carrara's head across the line to beat out Extra Zero? I don't know how he can do that at that speed right on the line. Incredible.

Anyway, regarding your question, Sportz' competition is restricted to just those races that he's nominated, which are basically Sydney and Melbourne metro Group 1 and 2 races. So that means unfortunately you only get 2 points for Williams' win on Carrara in the Group 2 Stutt Stakes, and nothing for his earlier win on Crown Ruby, which wasn't one of the nominated races.

I never was one for showing my teachers how I arrived at my answer, but...
 

...for the sake of clarity, here's the break-down of this week's results:

Stutt Stakes(G2)
1st CARRARA (8pts) = Horse Whisperer, Jake, Luv2bet, Silver and Sand & Stix
2nd EXTRA ZERO (4pts) = Maverick & Raw Instinct
3rd MISS WITH ATTITUDE (2pts) = Maverick
4th RIVER'S LANE (1pt)
-----
Winning Trainer A Vasil (4pts)
Winning Jockey C Williams (2pts) = Matilda & Rabbitz

Manikato Stakes (G1)
1st DANLEIGH (16pts) = Rabbitz
2nd PHELAN READY (8pts) = Jake & Samboss (SS)
3rd NICCONI (4pts)
4th WANTED (2pts)
-----
Winning Trainer C Waller (8pts) = Spartacus
Winning Jockey K McEvoy (4pts) = Horse Whisperer & Stix

Stan Fox Stakes (G2)
1st DENMAN (8pts) = Jake, Matilda, Raw Instinct, Samboss, Spartacus (SS) & Sportz
2nd RUN FOR NAARA (4pts) = Silver and Sand
3rd MORE THAN GREAT (2pts) = Rabbitz, Spartacus & Sportz
4th EL SONADOR (1pt) = Sportz
-----
Winning Trainer P Snowden (4pts) = Samboss
Winning Jockey K McEvoy (2pts) = Horse Whisperer & Stix

George Main Stakes (G1)
1st ROAD TO ROCK (16pts)
2nd BLACK PIRANHA (8pts) = Horse Whisperer, Raw Instinct (SS), Samboss & Spartacus
3rd ONEMORENOMORE (4pts) = Jake, Luv2bet & Raw Instinct
4th VISION AND POWER (2pts) = Stix
-----
Winning Trainer A Cummings (8pts)
Winning Jockey G Schofield (4pts) = Sportz

And remember, Stable Stars (SS) earn double points.

Noted.Thanks.

Yeah, the jockeys can only earn points for winning the feature races included in the competition, not any of the other races on the program. Same with the trainers.

A BIG day this Saturday with ten races to choose from!!! :eek:

For the competition, we have to choose 6 horses and 1 jockey and the total must not exceed 30 points.

Remember, the deadline for posting selections is 7:30 AEST Saturday morning.

Nah, sorry mate. You can't have a reserve in this comp. If your horse is scratched, I'm afraid that's just bad luck.

Are you sure you don't want to use up some more points, Rabz?

You can use up to 30 points, and you've got a LOT to spare!!! :eek:

As Sportz has specified, we cannot nominate Stable Stars as poart of our weekly selections, so unfortunately Samboss has missed out on his/her weekly selection of Cats Whisker, which was already one of his/her Stable Stars.

Also, Chuck missed out on one of his weekly selections as he hadn't clarifed his selections before the 7:30am deadline, which listed " Gathering" twice.

I'll post the race results shortly.

Yes, to avoid the confusion in future, could people go back and check what horses they chose as their stable stars, and write them down somewhere so that they don't pick them again. I spotted Stix's mistake early enough that I was able to get him to change his, but unfortunately I didn't spot Samboss's post.
