Sorry about the mix-up with this. Silly me, I posted the wrong races for Brisbane in the initial thread, so I've decided to start another thread and get it damn right this time.


Tips to be posted by midnight Friday. Simply post your top 3 selections in each of the nominated races. Don't worry about giving a reserve selection. If you can, please try to post the names of the horses as well as numbers.

Individually, tipsters will be scored in two ways. Firstly, on the monetary basis of having $3 on your top pick, $2 on your 2nd pick and $1 on your 3rd pick. Secondly, I will also keep a record of the best strike rates.

Points will be allotted on a 3,2,1 basis to find the consensus of all tipsters.

I haven't got time to look at form or anything so there goes some races there where I didn't even know any horses in the race especially Sydney which I have totally abandoned but who knows, The only place I have really looked is Brisbane and knowing my luck that is probably where I will go the worst.

You said it sportz. I am completely stumped. :S

Tenacious Spirit,

There's no hurry. Tips don't have to be posted till tomorrow night. Study the form guide tomorrow.
