Couldn't believe what I was watching, Petit Mouchoir has run some race there considering because you could see how far out Sait Calvados packed it in.

Yep, he's run an absolute screamer.

A terrible start to proceedings... Hopefully Ramses in the next to do the business.

Ziltoid · « **Reply #128 on:** March 13, 2018, 02:44:39 pm »

My next pick is in honour of a mate of mine who is nicknamed The Bear. No doubt it'll fall.

Buck Pete · « **Reply #129 on:** March 13, 2018, 02:48:21 pm »

My next pick is in honour of my missus

Grand National written all over him Pete. Was run off his feet but just kept finding more, wants a marathon trip to see the best of him in my opinion.

Time form picks are 4/4 so far :O

Another Popular pick scores many of us points.

Mick Jazz (FR)25/1.....................7+5 = 12 Points

Rysoph76 · « **Reply #140 on:** March 13, 2018, 03:53:21 pm »

65 points for me so far. I'd be surprised if I scored 65 across the whole 4 days last time!

Buck Pete · « **Reply #141 on:** March 13, 2018, 04:04:16 pm »

A high scoring day indeed and 72 points currently leads the way after 4 races.

Only 2 players not scored yet but that "should" change in the next race as they both have Apples Jade.

adruk87 · « **Reply #142 on:** March 13, 2018, 04:06:58 pm »

I am one of the two, cracking work out of 70 or so entries!

The bookies will always find some respite. Remember that 4 timer on the opening day a couple of years ago when Ruby had a fall at the last? Saved the bookies many millions.

Think it was a very high scoring day. If i managed 6 out of 7 in the frame it has to be 😂😂

Buck Pete · « **Reply #159 on:** March 13, 2018, 06:22:25 pm »

Here are today's scores and our first leaderboard. A very good day for many.

Well played JohnnyNI and Rysoph76 who are both a good 8 points clear of the chasers. Both players bagged 4 winners a 2nd and a 3rd.

Mentions to Kneeys, LFCStephen and BeefDog who all scored in every race. Hope you did the Place Pot lads

By all means cast you eyes over your own score if you wish to do so and let me know if there's any dispute as its easily rectified.
