Same rules as per usual - a tip in the feature race, plus 4 other tips (and a couple of reserves) from Unitab races in Australia on Monday.

As it stands, Chuck has a score of 53 against luv2bet and Goldcoaster has a score of 51 against Stix.

sportz, just a question bout something that happened this round. if i choose my 4 bets for the week and 2 subs, what happens if after i post my bets up, the person im up against picks one of my subs in their 4 picks? if i have a scratching does that mean it automtically goes to my second sub or how does it work?

No, you would then have the same selection.

i think sportz is saying you can't pick your opponent's subs either, is that right?

this is the advantage of posting your selections early i think

Ahhh, no I'm not.

You ARE allowed to pick one of your opponent's subs. Just not one of their 4 main picks.

Anyway, Chuck, Goldcoaster, luv2bet & Stix, don't forget to post tips for tomorrow's racing.

Melb R2-2 Spectacular Saint WIN

Good Luck...

Stix
I already have chosen Bond Street in Melbourne. So you may wish to change it. Good luck

Oh! OK, just take the first sub please Sportz (E/W), I trust this is agreeable to you GC?

Good luck...

Yep thats fine Stix....Good Luck

Is luv2bet around???

But Stix, you put your first sub down as Pantani and you'd already chosen that as your feature race selection. You can't pick the same horse twice! So I went on to your second sub instead - Spectacular Saint for a win.

And this meant that you ended up with a win. 100-94.

Hope you're not too upset about that, Goldcoaster. :o

Does that mean if my opponent picks my two subs i'm left high and dry if there is a scratching - doesn't seem fair to me

Surely if i picked first, then there was a scratching, my sub WOULD become one of my 4 main picks

I think there are enough horses out there for us to pick 6 others

spatacus i asked the question yesterday and sportz answered it then. so it was pretty clear what the rule was with that

Thanks, Sports. ;)

Sorry GC :o

............that's racing..... :D

Sportz,

From this rule here...

{If anyone misses out on tipping one round over the first 5 weeks, there's an extra day where you can post tips for that round.
This is called the second chance round. If, for some reason, you miss out on tipping one of the first 5 rounds, you have another chance on Mar 12 (Adelaide Cup day) to post tips. (((To be fair, your opponent would also get another chance to tip on that day and improve on their original score.))) After round 5, if you miss out on any week's tipping, then it's just bad luck.****


I took it as my score from monday would be added to my original score. Another words best over the two days.
Thanks

Great bit of account-keeping from what I can see! From the Goldcoaster v Stix clash they both get credited one win :rolleyes:

Ooops. Sorry. I obviously didn't explain myself well enough. :o

By improve on your original score, I simply meant that you could get a better score than you got the first time around. So, in effect, I DID mean that it would be your best score over the two days, but not a total score of the two days combined.

I'm VERY sorry about this mate. I can see how you might have thought that, and I apologise for how it's turned out. I think I'll definitely be ditching the idea of a catch-up round for the next comp (if there is a next one). As it is, luv2bet obviously didn't even know it was on, because he didn't tip again! Oh well, I thought it looked like a good idea at the time. :o

Geez, this is turning out to be a tough comp to run all of a sudden. :(

No, they don't.

No Westi i had my points deducted...so Stix was the only winner with points.


Sportz...sorry mate i didn't intend to be a pain.

Thanks for your efforts in all your comps

Okay, my mistake..I'm glad you're running this comp Sportz, cause you're about the only one that knows whats going on LOL cheers! :)

:(
