PREVIOUS ENCOUNTERS ROUND 7 3 OLD MATE*** (5th) $1316.60 2 (x 3 Triple Joker play) equals 6 points 2 SHOWTIME* (6th) $1363.80 2 (x 2 Joker play) equals 4 points Although Versilia never got into it for Showtime there was a tight finish of sorts with Showtime ending the day with a beaut BB quinella from Craig and a BB from Blind Squirrel which took them past the team profit mark and gave them a higher aggregate amounting to 4 points from their Joker play. Old Mate played their Triple Joker and barely held on for the 6 points but fell $3.60 short of a team profit which would have yielded another 3 points. Richie with 7 winners was Old Mate MVP but unlucky to draw Man of The Match Blind Squirrel with Paul also returning a good total for Showtime. Everyone is a winner ! 362.40 Richie 400 Blind Squirrel 293.20 PJ 288.60 Craig 163.20 Black Caviar 65 Maria 218.40 Rex 384.40 Harewood 279.40 Jack 225.80 Punter Pete ROUND 14 2 OLD MATE*** (2nd) $1673.00 2 (x 3 Triple Joker play) equals 6 points 3 SHOWTIME (3rd) $1481.20 3 points No show for Tom Kitten (only 4th) so Showtime held on to secure a Finals berth and added a bonus point for a team profit spearheaded by MVP Captain Maria. The Derby winner tipped by Blind Squirrel and Punter Pete for Showtime while all the Old Mates bar Rex replied with a BB for Jack, quinellas for Richie and PJ and a BB quinella for Black Caviar. Rex was a dominant Man of the Match as Old Mate secured a Finals berth with a team profit bonus and a higher aggregate bonus x 3. Everyone happy it would seem. 191.80 Richie 457 Maria 286.40 Black Caviar 66 Craig 304 Jack 316.20 Punter Pete 209.80 PJ 297 Paul 681 Rex 345 Blind Squirrel ROUND 1 1 KAOS $628.80 0 points 4 STYX $1092.20 3 points Styx had it won before the last where they all found the winning fave bar Gordy with a BB for Robert. Kaos pulled one back at the death with ray bagging a BB to get him past Gordy and take MVP honours for Kaos for whom MC also scored in the last. Smiler was Man of the Match and Styx took a bonus point for the 4-1 margin. 0 Ziggy 131 Howie 94.20 Sasha 193 Robert 224 Ray 188 Gordy 220.40 Midnight Caller 275 Our Maizcay 90.20 Stevie N 305.20 Smiler ROUND 8 2 STYX (2nd) $1038.80 0 points 3 KAOS (4th) $1232.00 2 points Kovalica ran on nicely but could not get into the finish for Styx so Kaos held on for the win. No one had the final winner. Ray was Kaos MVP and unlucky to draw Man of the Match Our Maizcay. No bonus points were earned. 208 Howie 93 Midnight Caller 164.60 Gordy 296 Stevie N 332.60 Our Maizcay 327 Ray 236.60 Smiler 263 Ziggy 97 Robert 253 Sasha ROUND 5 3 MAGIC (2nd) $1364.20 3 points 2 SEAGULLS (6th) $846.80 0 points Pride of Jenni tried her heart out for Graeme and The Seagulls but could not hold out the Champ so Magic held on to win despite being behind until the penultimate race. The Williams winner tipped by all except Graeme with Sharne and Seagulls trio Rees, Pete and Steve P doubling up with BBs. The hapless Rees was MVP for The Gulls while Anita was a dominant Match Star thanks mainly to her Rubiton Stakes BB quinella. Magic made it past the team profit mark in the last for a bonus point. 86.80 Sharne 92 Pete 608.20 Anita 249 Steve P 110.80 Heather 116 Maurice 354.40 Jamison 292.60 Rees 204 Pam 97.20 Graeme ROUND 11 1 MAGIC (4th) $1387.60 1 point 4 SEAGULLS*** (7th) $1801.20 4 (x 3 Triple Joker play) equals 12 points Neither of the two hopes Magic had in the last could quite get into the finish so The Seagulls held on for a very successful Triple Joker play with a bonus point turning into 3 for a team profit and another for a 4-1 margin netting the same return ! Magic - for whom Sharne was Match Star - took a bonus point for a team profit achieved in the last with best bets landed for Heather and Sharne. Graeme - the great cat hunter - was MVP for The Gulls and found the final winner as did Rees and Pete with BBs. In the case of Rees it got him up to annex Anita for the 4-1 margin 159 Porky 278 Maurice 106 Jamison 457 Graeme 493.20 Sharne 333 Pete 358.20 Anita 379.20 Rees 271.20 Heather 354 Steve P ROUND 5 1 MAX FACTORY (7th) $701.20 0 points 4 REAPERS*** (8th) $1649.40 4 (x 3 Triple Joker play) equals 12 points The Reapers had it won before the last where they all tipped the winning fave with BB quinellas for Tassie Tiger, Secret Squirrel and Hesi. Factory workers pair Max and LB were also on the Hayes winner. Gee was a clear MVP for The Factory while Tassie Tiger was Man of the Match despite only tipping 3 winners ! The Reapers Triple Joker play together with bonus points for a 4-1 margin and team profit saw them make a mighty points haul to put them back as serious contenders in the comp. 91 Barb 421 Hesi 371 Gee 204.80 Secret Squirrel 33 Max 379.20 Ian 90.20 Lightning Blue 178 Tonka 116 Rob 466.40 Tassie Tiger ROUND 11 0 REAPERS* (6th) $978.80 0 (x 2 Joker play) equals 0 points 5 MAX FACTORY (8th) $1298.00 4 points Max Factory had it won before the last - not a phrase you hear often - and despite Captain Max bagging a BB they fell a little short of a clean sweep with a team profit. BBs for Hesi and Ian for The Reapers for whom Tonka also scored, completed their scoring. Hesi just edged Secret Squirrel for Reaper MVP honours while Gee was Man of the Match for the victors. Well done to the Factory crew !. 241.20 Secret Squirrel 297.20 Rob 206.20 Ian 207 Max 195.20 Tassie Tiger 209.60 Barb 242.20 Hesi 252 Lightning Blue 94 Tonka 333.20 Gee

GRAND FINAL DAY - Sat Apr 20 (Captains please be alert in case someone in your team goes missing on the last day. It has happened before. It might pay to check in with team mates later in the week) This is it ! The culmination of the Summer-Autumn Super Comp. This is Finals Day so nothing should be easy about it. This line-up of races will seriously test your skills. I can see some very big (and very small totals) by the end of the day. We kick off with an Ellerslie Autumn juvenile stakes race where great divvys will be on offer outside the two last-start winners. Then surprisingly we dash over to Sydney for one of those testy races where you probably have never heard of any of the runners so those that can astutely study form might be rewarded. Then its off to Christchurch for one of the Riccarton features - the time-honoured Great Easter - with plenty of form to pick through followed by a devilishly difficult R65 mile where some sweet prices may be on offer. Then we head north to Ellerslie for the two Group features. Let us hope there are no slip-ups. Finally we head to Sydney for the final 4 races in the comp. The Champagne features a small but highly talented field of babies leading in to the All Aged Stakes with many winning chances. Now things get really tough. The comp will conclude with two high rating benchmark races which should have capacity fields. The winning of most HTH matches probably lies buried amongst the form here. Choose carefully among the tricky formlines. Good luck everyone, may the best teams win. The Grand Final takes centre stage as Old Mate and Showtime - perhaps the two outsiders at the conclusion of the Round Robin - face off as we try to find a Champion. The scorer has an unenviable task taking on Paul who is both magnificent and serendipitous while Punter Pete who has suffered more damage than any other competitor faces off against sexy Rexy who we understand is on new drugs ! Old Mate kingpin Jack goes Squirrel hunting while the always competitive pair of Craig and BC meet head on. Lastly, Maria and Richie have shown better form previously but either (or both) could bounce back with a smashing score on the big day. The 3rd place playoff is down to two sides who seemed destined for months to be the Grand Finalists but here they are scrapping over the bronze. Pride is on the line. Midnight Caller and Smiler are Magnificent Seven club members so a titanic struggle awaits in that one while other Magnificent club members Ray and Our Maizcay have no easy tasks against Robert and Sasha respectively. Stevie N and Gordy look very evenly matched while anything could happen and probably will in the Ziggy vs Howie contest. The Presidents Final sees two franchises - The Seagulls & Magic - who looked big chances to make the Finals a few weeks back but the wheels came off both outfits so a second chance for silverware and redemption awaits. Magic top gun Anita (on aggregate anyway) looks to straighten out her win/loss ratio against a gallant Captain Pete while the all-Naki clash of Heather and Maurice holds plenty of interest, their tipping strategies well known to each other. Not sure whether Rees is willing Porky to pour on the pain to make him The Unfortunate King or looking to make a bacon butty and lastly a couple of steely veterans Sharne and Graeme, a couple of Kats with many lives still up their sleeves, will be fighting for Top Kat honours. The Wooden Spoon clash - well this the elephant in the room. How the hell did the Reapers finish up here ??? Bad management, bad luck or just plain karma - who would know ? Max Factory, the comp whipping boys (and girl) can beat any team on their day so this is no walk in the park for the Scythe wielders. Captain Max faces off against the seemingly Teflon-coated Ian while Captain Hesi has no easy task against roughie exponent Rob. King Gee has a cunning squirrel in his sights while LB and Tonka look very evenly matched. Lastly, poor Barb has taken a hammering in her first comp, but will look to turn this around big-time against the one-of-a-kind Tassie Tiger. Please post on time.

The Waller winner tipped by all bar Smiler and Old Mate trio PJ, Jack and Black Caviar with BB quinellas for Styx trio Robert, Gordy and Our Maizcay but it just was not quite enough as Robert failed to run down PJ by a mere 20 cents ! AHIPE never meant more ! Great game Styx and good luck in the 3rd place playoff. Man of the Match was Styxter Gordy while Rex edged Richie for Old Mate MVP honours. 225.60 Jack 198.80 Our Maizcay 233.80 Richie 270.60 Howie 185.20 Black Caviar 167.80 Smiler 205 PJ 204.80 Robert 242.80 Rex 350 Gordy 2 KAOS (1st) 1001.20 3 SHOWTIME (4th) 1328.20 Showtime had it won before the last where they all missed. Ziggy (with a BB), Sasha and Midnight caller all tipped the J mac winner. Ziggy was KAOS MVP while Paul pipped Craig for Man of the Match honours. A terrific effort from Showtime who took over in race 4 and grimly held on to make the Grand Final. 173.60 Stevie N 484.60 Paul 46.80 Sasha 209.80 Blind Squirrel 346.60 Ziggy 119 Punter Pete 161.80 Ray 64 Maria 272.40 Midnight Caller 450.80 Craig PRESIDENTS SEMI-FINALS 4 SEAGULLS (5th) 1830.00 1 MAX FACTORY (8th) 457.60 The Seagulls did a Pride of Jenni and had it wrapped up a long way from home with a big aggregate so avoid the dreaded Wooden Spoon playoff. Max Factory had a lean day and they all missed in the last for the 5th time today. All the Gulls bar Steve P found the Zoustar winner with Pete adding a BB. Captain Max was Factory MVP while Maurice was an impressive Man of the Match. 544.40 Maurice 11 Gee 317.80 Rees 0 Barb 343.40 Pete 105 Lightning Blue 467.60 Graeme 178.60 Max 156.80 Steve P 163 Rob 3 MAGIC (6th) 897.20 2 REAPERS (7th) 1042.60 Olentia could not get into the finish and Tropical Squall faded in the straight so Magic held on to make the Presidents Final. The winning fave in the last tipped by all bar Tonka and Magic duo Jammo and Heather with BBs added by Porky and Hesi while opponents Anita and Ian snagged the quinella and Sharne added a BB quinella. Captain Ian was Reaper MVP while his opponent Anita was Match Star for the victors. 69.80 Heather 184.40 Tonka 327.80 Anita 251.80 Ian 198.80 Sharne 145 Secret Squirrel 11 Jamison 224 Hesi 289.80 Porky 237.40 Tassie Tiger

Divvys please

To win: Styx need- Olentia to win for Smiler OR Zougotcha to win for Robert (must pay $4.20+ or Atishu complete the Q) Reapers need- a Zougotcha-Olentia quinella in that order for Secret Squirrel AHIPE OR Tropical Squall to win for Tassie Tiger Kaos and Max Factory cannot win Congrats to The Seagulls and Showtime
