Group 1 Tipping comp (Autumn 2009)
Okay, we did something like this a couple of years ago. We'll just be concentrating on the group 1 races in Melbourne, Sydney and Adelaide until the end of April and you have to try to pick the first 4 horses in order. If you manage to do that you get a perfect score of 100 points, with progressively lower scores all the way down to zero if you don't get a single horse in the first 4. At the end of the autumn, the one with the most points is the winner. Here's the points system:
Points:
30 - Winner in the top 4 picks
15 - 2nd horse in the top 4 picks
10 - 3rd horse in the top 4 picks
5 - 4th horse in the top 4 picks
Bonus points:
20 - Winner rated on top
10 - Trifecta in order
10 - First 4 in order
This week's Group 1 race:
FLEM R6 - 2.46 COOLMORE LIGHTNING STAKES (1000 METRES)
1 APACHE CAT - Greg Eurell Corey Brown 6 58.5
2 WEEKEND HUSSLER - Ross McDonald Brad Rawiller 9 58.5
3 SWICK (NZ) - Bart Cummings Michael Rodd 4 58.5
4 TYPHOON ZED - Tim Martin Craig Williams 11 58.5
5 SCENIC BLAST - Daniel Morton Steven Arnold 1 58.5
6 SWISSACE - Mick Mair Ken Pope 5 58.5
7 GRAND DUELS - Byron Cozamanis Dwayne Dunn 3 58.5
8 SNAPPY TOM - Danielle Chapman Craig Newitt 10 58.5
9 SEVENTH ROCK - David Hayes Anton Marcus 7 58.5
10 LETMEENTERTAINYOU - Karen Byrnes Darren Gauci 2 58.5
11 WILANDER - Lee Freedman Kerrin McEvoy 8 55
When you post your picks, make sure to include a couple of reserve selections in case of scratchings. And make sure you list your horses (including reserves) in order of preference.
