I started okay, but my form the other 4 days has been appalling.

Shit, I don't think I ever accounted for a draw in the events I run

Personally I'd separate them by winners picked :)

Up to you though of course

Thank you all for helping to make the competition this week. Finding winners at Goodwood isn’t always easy and when it’s turns heavy and there are non runners everywhere it’s even harder so excellent efforts all of you.

And after 5 days of furious battle we have somehow ended with a draw at the top of the table.

So as this isn’t covered in the rules I suggest the following two options

We crown Joint Champions of the inaugural Glorious Goodwood Tipster comp or if you’d both rather we could have a sudden death shootout type scenario where I pick 3 races from Hamilton/Lingfield tonight and ask you both to PM me your selections which I’ll post. (so there’s no advantage if one of you posts them first).
Personally I prefer the first option but if you see this and let me know ASAP we can go from there.

I think in future Pete’s suggestion of the one who picked the most winners should be added to the rules but as we can already work out who that is this time I don’t think it’s the right thing to do on this occasion.

Both recent winners of a couple of the other comps too

Top tipsters and well played lads whatever Duvva decides.

Thanks for running it Duvva. Sterling work, my good man.

Congrats to both winners, thoroughly deserved after that weeks racing. Picking winners was impossible at times.

I don't mind sharing, I'm off to Chester Races tomorrow so just about to look through the runners. We could have a shoot out on that if naYoRHa2b wants? But I'm cool whatever is decided. It's all good fun.

I think Joint Winners is the way to go, and we’ll update the rules to cater for this in future.

Well done to both aedge659 and naYoRHa2b the first winners of RAWKs Glorious Goodwood tipster competition.

The trophy with both your names on will be arranged soon.

Great comp, well done aedge and Nay, some top tipping there on a really tricky meeting. Thanks to Duvva for sorting, nice one.

Piss poor day 3, otherwise reasonably happy with top 5.

See you all in March!

Thanks again for organising the competition Dave, and great picking from the joint winners.

Enjoyable racing as always from my favourite flat meeting, though the rain rather spoilt it given the number of non runners and late withdrawals. (How we here in west Wales could have done with that rain for the fishing, we’re in the middle of a long drought).

Ooooooh the shame. last place, the pin pickers beat me again. As Arnie said. I'll be back.  :)

He said he was trying to put a lucky 15 on & because it was a free hit he thought 'fuck it' & lashed it on an acca.
So fucking close to a big win.

A week until Glorious Goodwood 2022. I’ll get a new thread up and running at the weekend, but just thought I’d bump this as a reminder. Might send some PMs as well try to get a decent number involved again.

It’s a positive. Dettori has been to blame for at least a couple of his defeats. Atzeni is a good jockey, albeit Marquand would’ve been better.

Fair point, left him boxed in for way to long at Ascot
