Check out Makybe Diva's results though. He hasn't made any weekly selections thus far, and so just his original Stable Stars and trainer, and he's currently sitting in 3rd place!!! Puts the rest of us to shame.

Well done, Makybe. Top stuff.

You really should try to get on and post weekly selections if you can. You'd be killing us.

Sorry mate. I had another spelling mistake. I typed your selection in as "Starspanglesbanner", and because it didn't match, it wasn't calculated. I had triple-checked the results too, yet I still missed it somehow. Sorry, no extras for the trifecta though,...just bragging rights. Well done. Here's the revised tallys:

This Week's Tally

Sportz, if it's ok, I think I'll leave the scoring to you from now on, as it seems I keep missing something. Sorry, I had just wanted to lend a hand, but it's of no value if I'm going to keep making mistakes.

Did you have anything on Allez Wonder?

Just a lousy dollar each way. A tipster I know of actually picked it to win which is why I thought about it for this comp in the first place. That and the old Bart Cummings magic.

It's not easy doing this scoring business, is it?

Thanks for the help anyway.

$1 e/w is better than nothing. Well done.

I have a whole new level of respect for you now. You're right, keeping scores definitely isn't as easy as I thought it was going to be. I don't know how you find the time in the day to set up, run and score multiple competitions, but I'm sure many of us forumites are thankful that you do,... well I am anyways.

Have a good one mate.

Thank you for your kind comments. To be honest, I forgot till last week that I was in this and noticed I was near last so didn't give it much thought. I'll try and post a few selections from now although my luck will probably change once I start doing that
