Okay, well, today was a bit of a muck up, wasn't it?

Firstly, I'll Get There didn't get on in time to post any tips. Bad luck, mate.

In the finals, if someone doesn't post any tips, then obviously their opponent has to go through. So even though Reded didn't manage to score any points today, he advances to the grand final.

I feel really bad for Rabbitz who misses out despite scoring 25 points in his semi final. Sorry about that, mate.


Preliminary finals:

Rabbitz 25
Maverick1993 60

I'll Get There 0
Reded 0

No worries Sportz..Good comp as usual
would have been interesting if mavs last bet didnt get a place then it would have been 25 each..then what

Thanks for the comp Sportz , not sure how i got this far my tipping lately has been terrible .

Good luck Mav

The first tiebreaker if we need one is who had the highest placed finish. Mav got a 2nd and you got a 3rd, so he would have still gone through. And I would have felt even more sorry for you!

I think I'm going to look at making a few minor rule changes for next year to make sure things are always completely fair to everyone no matter what happens.

As it turned out, the major problem yesterday was that I'll Get There didn't tip. If he had, he'd have probably managed to score some points and get the win. As it is, Reded's the lucky one to go through.

My bets have been worse ,,can't believe i'm still alive ..hopefully i have my one good day tomorrow ..,,how hard is the feature !!

Good luck Reded .

Good Luck Reded

Okay, well, it's come down to this. Both tipsters have one bet left.

At the moment, it's Reded 92 v Mav 51.

Mav has Mr Hornblower in race 7 at Doomben. He probably has to win for Mav to have a chance. A place won't be enough. If Mr Hornblower wins, Reded still has Charter Boat in the last race, but at the odds he's showing, it probably won't be enough for Reded to come back and regain the lead.

So it's all down to Mr Hornblower.

Well, there you go, Reded. You've done a Bradbury!

Congratulations.
