[redsimon]

I agree I have 2 points so far, I had Ironside on 3 points though, 1 winner and rest unplaced? Can you double check?

[boldie]

well done Rooks. No idea how the point scoring works but I'm sure it's all good..I know I lost to MickyP's 1-5 (oh the shame of even selecting it ) shot.

[steeveg]

well done m8.it looks like its going to take a lot of time and effort to work these tables out every week.

[TightEnd]

quick reminder of how the points scoring works please Rooks, or a link to where I can find it!


thanks for your hard work on this

Ok, Rules... If you have any queries or see any mistakes let me know...

The winner of Division 1 is automatically promoted to the Premiership, with the bottom 2nd 3rd and 4th place having a playoff against each other, with the person with the most points out of their 6 selections going up to the Premiership. The same will rules will apply if more Divisions are added due to more interest.

10.0 Abandoned & Postponements
10.1 In the event of at least 4 races taking place on matchday then the match results will be scored based on the four races held, with selections on the remaining race all being void. If 3 or more selections from either players picks have been abandoned then the whole tie is void and your fixture will take place on another date.
11.0 Starting Prices - For the purposes of goal scoring (see rule 4.0 above) the official returned starting price is used to determine the number of goals scored by each horse in the 6 races.

13.0 Non Runners - In the event of any of a players horses becoming Non-Runners then the players non runner selection will be replaced with the race favourite. In the event of joint or co favourites being returned then the Joint/Co favourite with the lowest starting number (1,2,3 etc) is deemed the favourite.
