Okay, here we go for week one. A pretty quiet start to ease us into things. Just 3 group 2 races........

Here's what we have to do. We have to choose 3 horses and 1 jockey and the total points must not be more than 15. Important to note that you don't have to pick one horse from each race. You can pick 3 horses from the same race if you wish. You just have to pick 3 horses and 1 jockey.

Just so that nobody is advantaged or disadvantaged by scratchings, the deadline for posting your selections is 7:30 Saturday morning (scratching time). I don't know how many of you will be up and about then, so I strongly suggest you try to get your selections in by Friday night. With regards to scratchings, if you pick a horse that comes out, that is just bad luck. You don't get a reserve pick or another go or anything like that.



Anyway, here are the races we're looking at this week and the list of horses we can choose:

Rosehill Theo Marks Stakes 1300m Quality Hcp
(8,4,2,1) (4) (2)

5 RACING TO WIN
5 TRIPLE HONOUR
4 MR BARITONE
4 DREAMSCAPE
4 ROCK KINGDOM
3 MENTALITY
2 FRIDAY CREEK
2 BRYANNBO'S GIFT
2 EQUABLE
1 any other runner

M. Valley Dato Tan Chin Nam Stakes 1600m WFA
(8,4,2,1) (4) (2)

5 EL SEGUNDO
5 MIC MAC
5 WHOBEGOTYOU
4 JOLIE'S SHINJU
3 SEA BATTLE
2 EFFICIENT
2 ZIPPING
2 MAGICAL PEARL
1 any other runner

M. Valley W H Stocks Stakes 1600m WFA
(8,4,2,1) (4) (2)

5 CATS WHISKER
5 ZARITA
4 MISS MAREN
4 GALLICA
3 SPARKLING SATINE
2 PARTIVA
2 RUNNING RIOT
2 WITH APOLOGIES
2 LEICA DING

2 Daniel Ganderton

Default G'day Sportz.

Should we post selections here, or send them to you via email? And are we doing the McEwan, Research and Kingston Town Stakes Races as well, or are we just sticking to the Group 1 and 2 races?

Just post them here. And yes, it's only group 1 & group 2 races. I will post all the races you have to worry about.

That list of races on page 1 of this thread won't be totally correct as some races may have been downgraded recently to group 3 or some others upgraded to group 2.

Question

In any case, with the jockeys going out on strike, perhaps there may not be any races on Saturday to bother about.

Looks like Saturday's races are still on. But after that, who knows?

No, that's not how you do it, mate.

Look, guys. I'm sorry. I obviously didn't explain this well enough.

You can't just pick "any other runner" or "any other jockey" for one point. You actually have to nominate one of those other runners or one of those other jockeys.
