Well, yeah, I can understand that confusion if you're only looking at the 3 horses and jockey I chose this week, because I got no points at all from them!
BUT at the start of the comp, I chose Roman Emperor and Vigor as two of my 3 stable stars. And stable stars earn double points. So they got 24 x 2 (48) and 12 x 2 (24) for a total of 72 points.
Your stable stars run for you for the whole duration of the comp and earn double points. Also, the trainer you chose at the start of the comp stays with you for the whole of the comp too. Then each week, we choose another 3 horses and a jockey, and any points they get are added on to what the stable stars and the trainer get.
The stable stars you chose were Master O'Reilly, Mic Mac and Cats Whisker, and your trainer is David Hayes.
Regarding the points available for each race, I post them each week when I list the points for all the horses. For example.......
Caulfield Cup 2400m Open Hcp
(48,24,12,6) (24) (12)
That means:
Winning horse = 48pts, 2nd horse = 24pts, 3rd horse = 12pts, 4th horse = 6pts. Winning trainer = 24pts. Winning jockey = 12pts.
Hope all that helps.
