Leaning towards a small prize for 2nd. Something like 60 quid, purely to keep it interesting if someone had romped it.

The scoring system is in the OP, I asked for some feedback but got nothing, am I to assume it's fine?

Two or three non-payers, although one is Dubai and I'm sure he'll still want in when he in back from wherever he is but does anyone else want a second string?

Or any new players want a last minute involvement?

The kennels are all in the OP. Edgascoigne picks up a second kennel with maldini dropping out. MajorMajor is shipping after his work this evening and Dubai is in cos I know he is good for it, if not then I'll take his kennel if he doesn't confirm.

ForthThistle's Britannia Richard pulls out, I've randomly assigned him Be Real as a replacement who was one of the few spare dogs.

So how does this work?

I only found two runners tonight at Wimble.

My shortest price mule dog came 3rd, and another came 5th. I presume thats them out, only first 2 through? When are the rest of the heats?

Four qualified in some heats and at least three in the others.

Sorry, perhaps I should have given more of an indepth idea of the Derby and its rules to people just punting.

The first round is over two night, tonight and tomorrow. 13 races each night. 4 go though from most heats, with three going through from a handful. The second round is next weekend, where I think there is 16 heats of 6 dogs with three going through from each heat. The process is the same in R3, QF and SF.

So some of your dogs may have ran tonight, some tomorrow. If they finished in the top 4, there's a good chance they qualifyed. I will update everything after tomorrow's races.
