bowles10 Posted October 25, 2005 Share Posted October 25, 2005 Right, its that time of year again. Stick up your Ten to follow for the jumps season. We will start from the traditional curtain raiser, the Paddy power mtg at Cheltenham in a couple of weeks. 10pts per win 1pt per SP odds (i.e 10/1 gives another 10pts) No additional points for better races etc. Just stick down 10 horses & we will close this after the Grand National in April.

bowles10 Posted October 25, 2005 Author Share Posted October 25, 2005 Re: Ten to follow 1 entry per person Entries close Friday 11/11/05 12 noon Not sure about a prize. Might have a word in the mods forum to see who can sponsor. Closes after Grand National meeting in April. No editing after entry closed date/time.

staffy Posted October 25, 2005 Share Posted October 25, 2005 Re: Ten to follow Bowles i might have a go at this but to be honest I dont know enough about horseracing so some advice would be nice. Firstly where do I look to find a horses name. Might sound stupid but yes I bet occasionally on horses but on a day to day basis and look at what is running that day if this makes sense.

Jonesy Knows Posted November 12, 2005 Share Posted November 12, 2005 Re: Ten to follow Come on Jeffers!!! we got the first bonus race with Our Vic!!! and well done Socky1 for Watson Lake in Ireland!!! Looking forward to tomorrow as I have Moscow Flyer and Solerina both running at Navan in Ireland! who knows I may be one of the leaders after tomorrow!!! I think a lot of people in this comp will not have taken into account the fact that the likes of Solerina will be contesting regularly in Ireland in races £20k+ and the way the points are given in this comp, if taken on last seasons form Solerina is gonna win a lot of points :hope well let's hope!!! Anyhows it's still early days yet!!! Good luck everyone!!! Regards, Jonesy Knows. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

bowles10 Posted November 13, 2005 Author Share Posted November 13, 2005 Re: Ten to follow points normally get updated twice a week. I have no idea about the Banker wording as it was on my entry too.

socky1 Posted November 13, 2005 Share Posted November 13, 2005 Re: Ten to follow Im suprised that there is only six of us in nevermind ,still quite competitive. Chose not to have a paddy horse this year cus they normally nothing else for the rest of season after except for celestrial last year. If id read it proper and realised we were only having points for winners and prices my list would have been full a good hanicappers who run loads of times during a season but never in big races.
