Those doing the Fantasy Racing may have noticed that everyone has a free entry to the new Premier League competition.

I always enter a team - if there is sufficient interest I will set up an 'Oracle' Private league similar to the racing ones.

Comments below, please - and how many to make it worthwhile? 5?

Peter.

PS if only there was Fantasy WTA Tennis too ......

Thanks Annie - too modest by far!

I have set a league up - hopefully e-mail invitations will be sent to those I know - but Josh and Al, and anyone else are welcome and I hope will join.

If you log-in to the Telegraph Racing page and 'go to office' you should see a free credit.

Annie - it is just a case of picking a team of 11 to begin with - have a look. should be self-explanatory but ask if in doubt.

Cheers all

Sorry Pedro - I thought an e-mail had been sent to you before.

I have set up a league which Annie, Roy and Ken have already joined. It is 'Racing Oracle Premier League' with PIN 8063883.

To avoid duplication, would you mind joining, please - also Josh will hopefully see and join.

Cheers and good luck

Peter

Don't forget to keep an eye on your team for injuries - they mark them for injury and suspension. I had to change Barkley as out long term.

Most teams will be in their own league of 20, Annie - you play the other teams and the winners of each go through to a knockout competition - keep an eye on it but it takes some winning!
