Glorious Goodwood KUMB competition

Post by r99c »

Hi all

Am wondering if people would be up for a Glorious Goodwood competition. It will run for 5 days, Tuesday 28 Jul - Saturday 1 Aug, with crowds returning to UK racecourses on the final day.

Lots of quality racing next week and I'm off work so have the time. It would run exactly the same way as the Cheltenham one. ( viewtopic.php?f=48&t=111843&start=3220 )

Don't want to do it if only 5 people take part but would be good fun if we get say 15+ people perhaps, so drop a post if you're in and I will get the spreadsheets all set up.

I'd love to r99c but I would only be about for day 1.

Your past efforts have been great so even if there's only a few go for it, do it. It cheers the soul to be a contender :)

You can enter day 1 and probably be well in with a shout considering how recent results have gone at Goodwood :D

Let's get it on!

This bad boy starts tomorrow and so I'm opening the competition now.

Some seriously good looking action, particularly the Sussex Stakes on the Wednesday. Rules as follows for any newcomers...

Give selections for each race on each one of the 5 days....eg. Post your Tues picks on Tues morning, Weds picks on Weds morning etc.............or anytime before that days racing, as some people need to post their picks the night before.

Points scoring.......10 for winner, 5 for a second and 3 for a third. A dead heat will be disregarded and full points awarded for whatever place it may be..............Also to have an added dimension there will be extra points for every winner at 4-1 or better, this is to reward better priced winners. So the extra points would be scored as follows

A winner between 4/1 and 4.99/1 would get an extra 4 points
A winner between 5/1 and 5.99/1 would get an extra 5 points etc............

This would continue up the scale capped at 33/1, so for example a 33/1 winner would get an extra 33 points, 50/1 would also get 33 bonus points. The SP will be how this is calculated.

Non Runners will automatically go onto the favourite..........if more than one favourite it will be the horse nearest the top of the racecard.

If you PM me with a replacement for your non-runner, it will count as long as I receive the PM before the race time AND you post it in the thread so other people know

!! Please give a NAP, for inexperienced players this means the one of your selections which you think is mostly likely to win, just put (nap) after the horses name, if it wins it will double your score from 10 to 20 but the SP points will NOT be doubled.

Entries will only be included if posted before "the off" of the first race on that particular day.


Good luck to everyone!

Here are today's race results and the overall table. Cracking pick by CRFC Hammer in the sprint handicap but he unfortunately couldn't capitalise on those juicy odds points by storming clear at the top of the leaderboard. Still all to play for going into tomorrow with no one having complete stinkers!
