Well sir you have just put the pressure right on me for Saturday, but congratulations on a very good selection. A bullseye as it were. Thumbs Up Star Clap

Now all I have to do is ensure we keep the money in the bank.

$50.00 win on Duais @$11.00 = $550.00.

That means I have $600.00 on my selection on Saturday.

For Second Chance to peruse Wink Voyager tipped this week & djebel next Smile

Hi guys.

My Punters Club are starting a system similar to the Last Man Standing segment on Get On.

In this segment a designated panelist has a selection each week to build up a bank for the Victorian Jockeys Trust.

My Punters Club system has one difference.

We will be placing $50.00 in the bank each week whether we win or lose. So if we win say $100 from the weeks bet we will add $50.00 to the $100.00 in the next week, which means the bank increases by $150.00 for the next weeks bet.

I would like to see if any villager would be willing to participate in a village version of this, no money involved just our skills put to the test.

So this is how it will work.

1. The pot will start with $50.00.

2. Each week any winnings will be added to the bank. There will also be an extra $50.00 added to the bank as well.

3. The designated bet will be for the whole bank. So for instance if there is $200.00 in the bank, then that will be what the bet is for that weeks selection. 

4. The contest will run from next Saturday until 4th of December (Kingston Town Classic day in Perth).

5. Those who wish to participate need to PM me, and the order will be in the same order that you contacted me.

6. Players will need to make selections on some non weekend days. For instance on the 24th of September, a Friday we have the Moir Stakes a group 1. The next day we have the Golden Rose meeting, and then on the Sunday we have the Underwood Stakes meeting. So this will mean that some players will need to make a bet on the Friday and the Sunday.

7. If a player can not make a selection when it is their turn they will not be allocated another date.

8. If a player can not make a selection for a designated meeting, then I will make the selection for that meeting.

9. There are 18 dates during the designated period, where selections will need to be made. This means that a maximum of 18 players will be allowed as that will give everyone at least one chance to make a selection and to participate.

10. With the contest starting next week, I need you to contact me before Friday (before Friday as I want to place the names of the players and the dates on which they will need to make their selections, next Friday). No late entries will be accepted.    

So if you feel up to a bit banter then come along and join up Thumbs Up

If I ever get around to hosting a raceday live stream, SC then we may have village members share the bets for every race on the day.  

I am trying to get a stream up and running through you tube, but it might not quite be ready for Derby Day, stay tuned.

StarStarStar Bullseye!

So the bet tonight was $1520.00 place on Jonker @ $2.00. and so our balance after his win is $3040.00.

That gives me $3090.00 for tomorrows Cox Plate meeting.

Tossing up between Mo'unga, Pondus and Grace And Harmony so I will wait for the track condition tomorrow morning.

Well that was a misfire Nuke 

Sorry djebel, but that means that you have the selection next Saturday on Derby Day.

Just hope we get a fair track. When that rain came and the track started playing off the fence, I knew we were in trouble, but what can you do.

I could not find one so we will give djebel $100.00 to bet with on Oaks day.

I had it down to three for the record.

Race 8 No.8 Best Stone

Race 9. No.4 Zoumon

Race 10. No.4 Prime Candidate

I just could not pick so I forfeited the bet for the day.

Over to you for Thursday djebel Thumbs Up

Okay nothing doing today.

I am going to work on this concept to see if I can make a competition out of this for the new year.

I think I have the rules okay, but there are some changes to make it more exciting.

Maybe have the ability to withdraw winnings if you wish, and maybe allow bets after the meeting has started.

I will see what I can come up with.

Thank you to djebel for playing and providing some great selections during the competition Thumbs Up Thumbs Up
