Great finish though. :)

Well, after a good day, I've gone back to the top of the ladder. All round, our tipping hasn't been great over the past 10 weeks. Only 2 people ended up in the black, although william was also very close! Now the top 8 tipsters have been chosen. Bad luck to kiwi, Shaun, Rabbitz and Try Try Again. Thanks for taking part.

On the Qualifying & Elimination finals above (L.O.L).

Cheers.
Garyf.

Join us next time Gary:D

Thanks for the invite Chas but I will pass,
I get enjoyment out of watching how SPORTZ,
Posts the results & runs it to make it enjoyable.

Still no early markets up for the qualifying & preliminary,
Participants maybe the 4 players can post what odds they think,
They should be re their chances of winning it.

Cheers.
Garyf

I started out alright, but have been in horrible form of late. 51% LOT since I was leader.

"L.O.L" Reckon there will be an enquiry by the Mods,
When they read this.

Cheers.

Here we go with the finals.


Qualifying finals:

Elimination finals:
embee v aferw
kellmark v Percentum



IMPORTANT. PLEASE READ...

Tipping rules:

To make it easier for you, I'm leaving things close to the same as it has been during the preliminary rounds. You can still post anywhere between 5 and 15 tips. And the bet sizes are the same as we've been using all the way through too except that there are no longer any $50 best bets. The maximum amount you can bet in the finals is $25.

The person listed first in each matchup finished higher on the ladder, so they are given the "home ground advantage" of having 25% more to spend. The person listed first is allowed to bet between $125 and $250 while the person listed second gets to bet between $100 and $200. In each case, betting the maximum amount won't actually give you a better chance. Because I will simply be converting your total winnings back to a score out of 125 or 100 as the case may be.

The tipster in each matchup who posts second is only allowed to include one of the horses tipped by the person who posted first. Just to clarify this... The person who's listed 2nd doesn't have to wait around and post their tips 2nd. They can get in and post their tips first if they want to. But whoever it is that ends up posting 2nd in each matchup, they can only tip one of the horses that the 1st tipster has picked.

In the unlikely event of a tie, the match will be awarded to the tipster listed 2nd.

Good luck!

Sorry mate, you can't have $20 ew. The most you can bet on any horse now is $25. In your case, all you need to do is simply have $10 ew. The result would be exactly the same.

Just to explain things again. The person listed first can bet $125-$250 and the person listed second can bet $100-$200. Now, it's important to realise that betting the maximum amount does not give you any more chance of winning than betting the minimum amount. Because I am simply going to convert everyone's winnings back to a score out of 125 or 100 anyway.

The reason why I left it open for people to bet $125-$250 or $100-$200 is simply to give people greater flexibility and leave it as close as possible to how we've been doing it up till now.

Ha ha.

Robalan and walkermac still to tip.

And R2 should be Zarabeel. I've picked a bad day to lose my reading glasses. Years ago I'd have known the horses but there are so many today that are quickly 'turned over. Gone are the days of warriors like Puramaka or Ballarat's old marvel, Yootha. Now I'm really showing my age.

Sorry Robalan, there are no more $50 bets now that we're in the finals. Most you can bet is $25.

robalan
 

sorry sportz,can you adjust the two bets to $25 wins.

Wow. Unlucky.

Also unlucky!

Three 5ths and a 4th so far. All double figures, all will be 6/4 on next start and win.

Well done. And I sure am happy to see it win as it really boosted the quaddie!

I'm having a great day. Hope I'm not using up all my winning form today!

Finals Form
 

Nice work Sportz

Me too! I put $50 on you, after all ;)

Brilliant stuff. Oh so close to getting 5 winners from 5 races.
