TooFast Posted April 24, 2021 Share Posted April 24, 2021 16 minutes ago, PWJ said: Starspangled Rodeo late scr in the last comp race Late scratchings will go to the TAB sub followed by the 2nd favourite by TAB win odds in that order. If more than one horse meets the latter criteria then the replacement will be the horse with the higher number. Looks like 14-Nudge will be the TAB Favourite, currently around $4.50; followed by 4 - Bottega , currently around $6.80, closely followed by Phaistos. All 5 'Showtime' were on Starspangled Rodeo - and a big run from Nudge (ie. 1st) will see them home. We'll see ! 😁 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
PWJ Posted April 24, 2021 Author Share Posted April 24, 2021 To win: Escapists need- Phaistos to win for Rex Showtime need- Nudge (if it is the #1 sub) to win for Gordy Ardern Up need- Laure Me In to win for Ian OR (possibly) a Munitions/Archedemus quinella in any order for Zac and hope it pays enough OR Phaistos to win for Stevie Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

And anyway you look at it you would assume Nudge... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
PWJ Posted April 24, 2021 Author Share Posted April 24, 2021 Round 7 - Saturday Apr 24 Race 10 - Randwick R81st - 12 Rocha Clock W-$5.30 2nd - 14 Nudge Q-$14.00 Scr: 9(L),15 Subs: #12 then #14 1 ESCAPISTS* (3rd) $1305.40 0 (x 2 Joker play) = 0 points 4 SEAGULLS (2nd) $1854.20 4 points Phaistos, the Escapists only hope in the last for a successful Joker play, was the victim of a fairly average ride from Bowman flashed home far too late so the Seagulls prevailed with Pete snagging a quinella to get up and nab the scorer giving them a further bonus point for the 4-1 margin on top of that for a team profit achieved after 9 races. Sharne with a BB and Steve with a beaut BB quinella completed the scoring for the Seagulls for whom Sharne was MVP while Jack bagged a BB off the sub for The Escapists for whom Roland was Man of the Match. 82.00 Jen 265.20 Maurice 311.60 PJ 364.00 Pete 208.00 Jack 542.00 Sharne 135.60 Rex 336.20 Steve P 568.20 Roland 346.80 Hesi 3 SHOWTIME (5th) $1288.80 2 points 2 BARELLAN (1st) $726.80 0 points The sub (but not the one you thought it was going to be) got up for Gordy in the last as he nailed the previously unbeaten Tom to win it for Showtime who were all on the final winner via the sub ! Punter Pete - his team's MVP - on his own replied for Barellan. Gary, with 6 winners, was Man of the Match. No bonus points were earned. 87.00 Maria 132.60 Howie 373.80 Heather 173.00 Punter Pete 469.00 Gary 133.00 Craig 249.00 Gordy 146.20 Tom 110.00 Porky 142.00 Geoff 3 MAXIS* (7th) $1658.60 3 (x 2 Joker play) = 6 points 2 ARDERN UP* (6th) $1770.80 2 (x 2 Joker play) = 4 points BYE - RAMONES (4th) $963.60 0 points Ardern Up's two hopes never yelped in the last so the Maxis held on for a much needed win with their successful Joker play. Pam got their final winner while Ian, who was just pipped by Ray for Ardern Up MVP honours, bagged a BB in the last - both these via the sub. Captain Max with a huge score was Man of the Match with his two longshot winners. Ardern Up nevertheless took a point for a team profit and another for a superior aggregate which bagged them 4 points from their Joker play. The Maxis also took a bonus point (becoming two) for a team profit. Rees was the sole scorer for the Ramones in the last ending the day as their MVP but they trailed the other two teams by a margin so no points secured. 70.00 Pam 492.20 Ray 135.60 Blind Squirrel 312.00 Ziggy 630.20 Max 475.00 Ian 413.60 Graeme 185.00 Zac 409.20 Rob 306.60 Stevie N 168.00 Dino 309.20 Rees 217.60 Richie 102.20 Gee 166.60 Baby Table after Round 7 1st 18 Seagulls $7870.60 2nd 18 Barellan $7780.60 3rd 12 Maxis $7096.80 4th 11 Ardern Up $7626.60 5th 10 Escapists $7301.00 6th 10 Showtime $6147.40 7th 9 Ramones $4930.00 Barellan's loss today without scoring any points left them open to be usurped as table leaders and the Seagulls took that opportunity to leap over the B boys and lead them now by less than $100 on aggregate. The Maxis Joker-fuelled win saw them rise out of the cellar a massive 4 places to secure 3rd while their victims Ardern Up still made up two places in defeat with bonus points. The Escapists unsuccessful Joker play saw them drop two spots while Showtime won but lost a place (!!??) while The Ramones slipped 3 places into the cellar on their unsuccessful bye round. Only half way there so plenty of action to come as Winter sets in. 2 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

TooFast Posted April 24, 2021 Share Posted April 24, 2021 Congrats to the 'Showtime' team, Captain Maria, me good ole Blues mate Gordy, Gary, Heather, and Porky, getting in the decisive stride and taking out a well-merited victory over us previous Comp leaders, the team Barellan. Heather and Gary in particular playing 'blinders', and Gordy getting the crucial victory in the last over the Comp's top selector Tom, no mean feat. Not our best day "teamies' in Team Barellan ..... but we almost got away with it. If Rocha Clock has paid 10 cents less we'd be laughing. But it's the small margins that make these PJ Comps so entertaining. We've all got a ways to go yet as this Comp plays out ...and every team has still got a chance. At the start of the Comp I made the Seagulls the favourites ...and I still have them as favourites. But watch out Pete ...we team Barellan have youse in our line of sight ! 😄 Many thanks PJ for another superb day of great racing entertainment. 8 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
