Autumn NPC Super Comp Market


Hesi

Recommended Posts

The Autumn Comp is undoubtedly dominated by the return of several old combinations, and these synergies have influenced the setting of this market

Blues $4 - Howie and Geoff were like lost souls in the last comp, but are set to rebound, along with Gordy and Pete.  Roland had a poor last comp, that means he will probably have a blinder.  Well deserved faves, only just

Magpies $5 - The core of this team is the Offngone team that cruised the last comp, as predicted, with Ian leading with the bag of tricks from the draught board.  But this is a chess game

Ferdies $6 - PJ reunited with his Taranaki mates in Moz and Heather, and more than ably supported by Tom and Zac, make a formidable combination

Turbos $8 - The terrible two in Ray and Zig, both legendary tippers.  Throw in Steve Paul, Gary and the nut chaser, who got bloused out of aggregate honours in the Summer draft comp, and they make up what should be the F4

Kauri Kats $11 - What can you say about this iconic, long lived team, with the triumvirate of girls holding sway again.  Maxi and Graeme supporting them all the way.  Could win it, but mixed form, so a bottom half of the field finish

Swamp Foxes $15 - Mainly harness folk, but they have surprised on a regular basis.  Throw in the inimitable(look it up) Maria and the mysterious Punter Pete, and they could easily surprise

Chiefs $15 - King Gee(Penguin), top tipper Smiler, newbie Our Maizcay(WELCOME) who has shown a bit of form elsewhere and Trotslover and perennial Jack.  They will possibly do a Roch 'N' Horse, who knows, easier to read tea leaves

Highlanders $30 - Not a show, just making up the field

That's a bit ageist Hesi.

I've seen a pic of Max and he doesn't look a day over 60.

True, Maxi is an old codger from the Triassic period, but he has those 3 ladies to keep him feeling young

very generous market, set at about 86%

i'd have a couple of dollars on the Chiefs at 15/1, don't know a lot about the others in the team but 15/1 in an 8 horse field would be worth a look 🙂

This self-deprecating (look it up) epistle doth not fool Maxi, Hesi-meister. 30-1 indeed...

not a single name mentioned as you attempt to fly under the KK's' radar today. ...Rex aka Sir G...Rob...Craig...Midnite C and your clever self

KK's know we are in for a stoush this arvo ...as will everyone else in due course!

Magpies $4 - Impressive display in R1, and must now move to favourite

Blues $5 - Beaten but still impressive, with Roland as predicted, bouncing back, scoring 2/3 of the points in one round compared to the total of 8 rounds previous comp

Ferdies $7 - The skip will have to lift his game

Turbos $9 - Slightly disappointing, so have lengthened

Kauri Kats $10 - Unlucky to lose

Swamp Foxes $13 - Smashed by an unstoppable Magpie dive, but still impressive scoring

Chiefs $15 - Just a par performance against an under performing Turbos

Highlanders $26 - Poor scoring, but fluked a win

Unlucky is right, Hesi, but Kats don't cry over spilt milk...much. If only Aspen Colorado had got a clear run earlier in the Oaks...

Congrats Craigo and Highlanders team, a tight match indeed, and you were in front when it mattered.

Tremendous work from Pam but she was a lone tiger in the deep south jungle.

Still, it was only $8 from glory, Kats, so we’ll take the point and do better next week.

Thanks PJ, brilliant updates as always.

Kauri Kats with 3 alumni in the Serendipitous Six after Round 1, a huge advantage, but somehow they've conspired to be running 7th of 8 on the big one, the leaderboard ! 
Just Plodded volunteered that on first glance it appeared like awful team mismanagement on the part of the Kauri Kats, but I said that I couldn't possibly comment, that I'm not one to put the boot in to ailing rival outfits (unless they're our opponent for the coming Saturday 🙂).

Bookie seems to have got the top and bottom of the market right...unfortunately

Blues and Turbos yet to really fire

Swampies proving that knowledge of thoroughbred form is not a prerequisite to doing well in this comp.

Ferdies skip continues to struggle, Broncos style
