Cheltenham Festival Competition.

Hello everyone, As you know in the monthly contest it's only 7 selections a week and with the Cheltenham Festival looming large I thought it would be a good idea to run a separate competition for this festival. So here are the rules.

4 Selections A DAY - Win or Place.

MUST SELECT 1 AS NAP PER DAY.

NAP WILL BE SCORED AS X2

All Selections will be settled at Betfair SP.

 

Hopefully everyone will have a go and we will all enjoy a festival of high class jumpers doing what they do best.

Cheers Josh

Wednesday's Update

Al has a brilliant day and manages 14.00 after he napped the simply sensational Sprinter Sacre who regained his Champion Chase crown in emotional and bullish fashion, was fantastic to see & a quite wonderful training performance by all involved with the horse. Annie also picks up a few nice points with a nice place.


Al - 14.00
Annie - 3.72
Peter - N.S
Josh - N.S
Pedro - N.S


Overall

Al - 16.96  
Pedro - 15.97
Josh - 15.84
Annie - 3.72
Peter - N.S

Al swoops to the front but has no kicked clear and the top 3 separated by just over a point a gap back to Annie & Peter but not an impossible thought to think either could bridge that gap.

Best of luck for Day 3 all.

Cheers Josh

Myself & Dad are the only one to manage winners on a difficult Day 3.

Josh - 5.65
Pedro - 4.42

Annie - N.S
Al - N.S


Overall


Josh - 21.49  
Pedro - 20.39
Al - 16.96
Annie - 3.72

I hold the lead as we head in to the final day but it's still anyone's contest to be crowned the King / Queen of the 2016 Cheltenham Festival.


Best of luck for the 4th and final day.
