TooFast Posted August 8, 2020 Share Posted August 8, 2020 G'day, PJ. Doesn't help me much in my chase after StevieN, but I believe I had Skyman as my BB also. Thanks, PJ. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
PWJ Posted August 8, 2020 Author Share Posted August 8, 2020 To win- The Kauri Kats need: Chicago Cub to win for Sharne (must pay $3.80+ or Octane complete the Q) OR Causeway Girl to win for Max The Barbarians need: Elite Legacy to win for Ziggy OR Octane to win for Mardy The Turbos and The Blues can't win Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Blind Squirrel Posted August 8, 2020 Share Posted August 8, 2020 Where there is life there is hope PJ - I think the Turbo's can win if 12 beats 11 and the quinella pays enough - a bloody miracle required though!! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Maximus Posted August 8, 2020 Share Posted August 8, 2020 well Sharne has been far and away the best scorer for the KKs so who's to say Chicago Cub wont do the business? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

craigos1 Posted August 8, 2020 Share Posted August 8, 2020 Hi PJ I think Blind Squirrel is leading Rob (R2 Rob had 11-12 not 1) Sorry it's taken me this long to work it out....................had to dart out for a bit missed that race.

Rayzor Posted August 8, 2020 Share Posted August 8, 2020 I think we need Chicago Cub to win for Gary. 🤞 🤞 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Blind Squirrel Posted August 8, 2020 Share Posted August 8, 2020 Thanks Craig - I never saw it either - mind you it's been a cracking battle so I was kind of resigned to a loss with honour (which is still likely) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

TooFast Posted August 8, 2020 Share Posted August 8, 2020 Congratulations to Ian and his Chiefs today .....had it won before the last, and with a Team Profit to boot ! Just too strong, and best of luck for the final round as you launch for the Comp win. Special mention for my opponent StevieN who by my calculations won the final 6 races on the bounce ! Top stuff, Stevie. 👍👍 I guess you've t aken me out of 'The Serendipitous Six' ! 😊 I thought I did well getting 5 winners, but you were certainly a notch above, Stevie. Hard luck my guys ....fought hard all the way, but the match wins are certainly proving elusive this time around. Big ups to Pete who nailed a BB Quinella in the last to score a very well-deserved individual victory 👍, and bring us back to 2-3. One more opportunity for us to get off the bottom of the ladder. Better get yourselves motivated Maxi and the Kauri Kats ! We're a comin' for ya ! Thanks very much for another excellent day's entertainment, PJ. Always very much appreciated. 👍 4 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Stevie Nicks Off Posted August 8, 2020 Share Posted August 8, 2020 Always great to play the Blues win lose or draw, hard luck today Howie, I’m sure you’ll bounce back in a big way once the Spring draft is up and running No luck for the Chiefs today we went fro 4-1 to 3-2 and the Ferdies went from 3-2 to 4-1 5-0 next week unlikely Well done Chiefs on today’s victory, also well done to the Ferdies, too good 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
PWJ Posted August 8, 2020 Author Share Posted August 8, 2020 Round 5 - Saturday Aug 1 Race 10 - Flemington R81st - 6 Octane W-$2.90 2nd - 12 Rock Prophet Q-$6.70 Scr: 3,4,10 4 FERDIES (1st) $1260.00 3 points 1 KAURI KATS (7th) $716.40 0 points Chicago Cub loomed and the faded and Causeway Girl never got into the finish so the Ferdies not only held on but took a bonus point for a 4-1 margin with Heather bagging a BB to down Rocky. Maurice (with a BB) and PJ completed the Ferdies' scoring while Sharne also bagged a BB nailing all 5 Oz winners but unable to reel in PJ - nice effort girl ! Graeme - the only Kat to score a personal win - was MVP for his side while Ashoka was Man of the Match with a good tally. Well played again Ferdies. 315.00 Zac 0.00 Max 149.80 Heather 129.00 Rocky 436.80 Ashoka 26.00 Jen 231.40 PJ 186.00 Sharne 127.00 Maurice 375.40 Graeme 3 CRUSADERS (3rd) $1593.80 3 points 2 TURBOS* (5th) $1008.80 0 (x 2 Joker play) = 0 points The Crusaders had it won before the last and ended the day in style with BBs from Rex, Tom and Robert. Gary scored the final $$ for The Turbos, for whom Ray edged Steve for MVP honours, their Joker-play proving unsuccessful. The Crusaders took a bonus point for an impressive team profit. Craig was a very impressive Man of the Match on a tricky day just edging out Robert. NB: Rob wrongly credited win win in race 2 - my error - apologies to Blind Squirrel and Turbos. 175.80 Tom 251.00 Steve P 440.20 Robert 69.00 Rees 292.00 Rob 310.40 Blind Squirrel 186.00 Rex 119.20 Gary 498.80 Craig 258.80 Ray 2 BLUES (8th) $1075.20 0 points 3 CHIEFS (2nd) $1380.60 3 points The Chiefs had it wrapped up by race 9 where they passed the team profit mark and ended the day with collects from Man of the Match Stevie N - who tipped the last 6 winners - and Punter Pete. The Blues played their part as spoilers in the last when Pete bagged a beaut BB quinella to down Punter Pete and deny the Chiefs a further bonus point while Geoff also got the final winner but was edged by Gordy for Auckland MVP honours. The Chiefs nevertheless took an important bonus point for a team profit in a solid performance. Three matches with less than $40 separating the combatants. 273.60 Geoff 301.80 Gee 292.00 Gordy 274.00 Jack 196.80 Pete 161.00 Punter Pete 251.40 Howie 455.00 Stevie N 61.40 Roland 188.80 Ian 2 HURRICANES* (4th) $708.80 1 (x 2 Joker play) = 2 points 3 BARBARIANS (6th) $675.80 2 points The Barbarians pulled off the day's upset downing the highly favoured Hurricanes in the last when Mardy tipped his 5th straight winner to collar Virgil with a BB and claim Babas MVP honours, with Pam also scoring. TC and Porky made the final collects for The 'Canes for whom Hesi was Man of the Match. The Capital Lads did take away a consolation bonus point for a higher aggregate. Well done Babas ! 90.00 Porky 220.80 Richie 191.00 Virgil 231.00 Mardy 294.00 Hesi 37.00 Moose 98.00 The Crucible 187.00 Pam 35.80 John 0.00 Ziggy * Joker play The Table after Round 6 1st 21 FERDIES* $6656.80 2nd 16 CHIEFS* $8220.80 -------chance to win the Championship above this line only--------------- 3rd 15 CRUSADERS* $6002.00 4th 12 HURRICANES* $5991.80 5th 10 TURBOS* $5953.40 6th 9 BARBARIANS* $4410.00 7th 2 KAURI KATS* $5737.00 8th 0 BLUES* $5494.80 * joker played The Ferdies win today leaves a tall task for the remaining chasing side - The Chiefs - to claim victory on the Final Day next Saturday. The Chiefs need a 5 pointer and hope the Ferdies come away empty-handed. The Crusaders and Chiefs both scored impressive wins today but The 'Saders needed another bonus point to stay in contention. The Chiefs face the Barbarians and will be hoping The Crusaders do the job against the Ferdies. The Hurricanes needed a successful Joker play to stay in contention but were undone by a valiant Babas effort that takes them to within 1 point of The Turbos. The Blues and Kauri Kats each lost today and will face off in a battle to avoid the wooden spoon next week. 3 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Maximus Posted August 8, 2020 Share Posted August 8, 2020 (edited) the bog of Riccarton instead of a Dead 5 or 6 at Ruakaka? Oh well, too bad never mind. Congrats to the Ferdies too good for the KKs today... Ferdies consistently the best performers in this Comp and unlikely to cough it up next Saturday.
