At least I won't lose it on the last race this time.

Beneath is 40 points clear.  Looking at the odds, I don't think even with 2 winners, BoRed can do it.

Stephen perhaps can pip him if Ziryab wins the next and Beneath doesn't place at all for the rest of the day.  Its unlikely Ziryab will be the required odds though. 

It's pretty much a two-horse race with Beneath 20 lengths clear.

Beneath just needs any place in the next to guarantee victory.

No tense ending this time lads and Lasses.

Beneath did too much damage yesterday.

A new name on the roll of honor.  :)

Well done Beneath, finding winners this week has been tough so hats off to you.

Thanks once again for running Pete. Enjoyed it despite my poor showing, especially following Barneys super Heinz today.

Have I picked up enough points today to avoid the wooden spoon?

Thank you for running these comps, Pete, to actually win one has got me
needing a cup of tea. Nice to finish with a winner, so I'm well chuffed.

It was a weird week with places, never mind winners, difficult to find for
everyone. I was fortunate *cough*more arse than class*cough* to have
a beast of a Friday and enough points to hold off the God-tier tipping
of Barney's daughter.

Way fun.

Well done Beneath, that was one hard week of picking anything. Left me 2nd guessing every one of my decisions in the end.

And Barney, where you drinking first home game of the season? The drinks must be on you?

Massive well done to beneath, really hard going this week so your trophy is well deserved!!

And a big congrats to Barney (or should I say Barney’s daughter?!) 10k is unreal, the reason most of us love horse racing is for stories like that!

And thanks Pete for running, looking forward to the next one! Can you give me a 50 point head start so I can finish at least top 10?!   :D

***Congratulations to Beneath- The RAWK Ascot champion Tipster 2023***   :champ

'Beneath' followed up his amazing Day 4 performance with a solid final day.  Aside from an early move by Chromed, none of the potential overnight challengers threatened his place at the top today.  He won the event comfortably in the end.

Well played Beneath on achieving your first RAWK tipping major trophy.  :wave

Day 5 top scorer was Barney's daughter.  She predicted 3 amazingly priced winners and as such, will be receiving a Frozen DVD along with a bag of Haribo from her father's winnings.

Trophy presentation to follow over the next few days. Thanks for playing guys.

What a great result for the Barney family. Great to see something like this happen. Better get her a Mensa membership with the winnings, she’s clearly the brains of the operation :). Made up for ya

Random wheel spinner. Spin the wheel 6 times and whatever number the 6th spin lands on is the horse for that race. If I knew how to get the images within the 200kb limit I'd post them  :lmao

Spent hours making 'informed' selections all week and end up with 10k using this method  ;D

Who cares your 10 grand up. It’s like when you go the races with people who choose based on colours and names and they end up with more winners despite your hours spent studying. Still toasting the day by any chance?

I like these flat competitions. Good fun and has very unpredictable results at times.

Thank you Pete, it is a thing of beauty. If memory serves, it's the first trophy I've
snagged since I won a toaster at an army charity golf day in 1986. Long time
between drinks.

Hope we get a big turn-out for Goodwood, and that the betting is a touch more
predictable (if that's a fair way of putting it) than last week.

Goodwood does seem the poor relation turn out wise but hopefully we can get the majority of the regulars involved
