PWJ Posted May 6, 2023 Author Share Posted May 6, 2023 To win- The Desperados need: an Atishu-Zaaki quinella in that order for Mike and Pete AHIPE for Pete The Reapers need: New Mandate to win for Tom OR a Huetor-Zaaki quinella in that order for Tassie AHIPE (unlikely) The Believers-Kelly's Heroes match too hard to predict due to the scoreless deadlock between Roland and Trotslover. Their last race picks are (best bets for both): Roland - Huetor & Kolding Trotslover - Zaaki & Atishu If Roland can win that countback then Wrinkles can win it for The Heroes with new Mandate or Gordy with Huetor The Dream Team can't win Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

All bar Tom on the final winner with BBs for Hesi & Maria while Ray was Man of the Match for the victors. 358.20 Graeme 272.40 Antz 453.80 Ray 196.60 Tassie Tiger 16 Rees 398 Hesi 189 Maria 422 Moose 277 Craig 0 Tom 4 BELIEVERS (7th) $1332.00 4 points 1 KELLY'S HEROES* (2nd) $900.00 0 (x 0 Joker play) = 0 points Trotslover bagged a BB on the winning fave in the last to roll Roland and ensure a win with a bonus point for the 4-1 margin for The Believers for whom Robert (also with a BB) and Smiler also scored taking them past the team profit mark for a further bonus point. Heather and Gary scored the last wins for Kelly's Heroes who suffered an unsuccessful Joker play. Wrinkles edged Gary for Heroes' MVP honours while Blind Squirrel was Man of The Match for the winners. 425 Blind Squirrel 164 Gordy 32 Trotslover 0 Roland 284 Smiler 110 Heather 373 Robert 317.60 Wrinkles 218 Lightning Blue 308.40 Gary 4 MAX FACTORY (9th) $1417.00 4 points 1 DESPERADOS (3rd) $1094.80 0 points Atishu couldn't make the late, great run the Desperados hoped for so Max Factory held on to win taking bonus points for a team profit and 4-1 margin. Only Max Factory pair Jen & Max missed the winning fave in the last with BBs added by Pam, Sharne, Pete & Mike. Harewood with 6 winners was Man of the Match for the victors while his unlucky opponent Maurice was MVP for The Desperados. 419.60 Harewood 319.60 Maurice 327.60 Rob 165 Sharne 148 Max 209.60 Secret Squirrel 266 Pam 159 Pete 255.80 Jen 251.60 Mike 0 DREAM TEAM (4th) $729.40 0 points 5 RAMONES (8th) $1263.60 4 points Bye: UNION JACKS (6th) $1510.00 3 points The Ramones had it won before the last where their day was completed by Sarah snagging the quinella to reel in Ian and give her team a 5-zip win and two bonus points. Richie also scored in the last while Ziggy and Stevie with BBs plus PJ rounded out a dismal day for The Dream Team. Captain Ian was MVP for the losers while Richie was a dominant Man of the Match for The Ramones. The Union Jacks had a fine day - why couldn't they play like this earlier ?? - taking all the points on offer for a team profit and superior aggregate against the other two sides with Tonka putting in a mammoth performance with nearly $700 from 8 winners ! Geoff (with a BB), Jack, Punter Pete and of course Tonka completed their scoring. 269.80 Ian 278.60 Sarah 86 Stevie N 180 Jason 161.60 PJ 210 Steve P 55 Ziggy 354 Richie 157 Howie 241 Mardy 209 Geoff 203.60 Jack 97 Gee 314.80 Punter Pete 685.60 Tonka Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
PWJ Posted May 6, 2023 Author Share Posted May 6, 2023 Table after Round 17 Despite some crazy results today there were no changes on the table with the top 4 sides all losing. Defeat for the Dream Team sees their Championship hopes evaporate. Despite losing The Desperados go into their final match against Kelly's Heroes clutching a Triple Joker while The Reapers (still with a Joker to play) will be looking to repulse a hugely in-form Max Factory outfit who could be the key to deciding the Championship. The Ramones vs Max Factory battle for the Wooden Spoon saw both sides reap 4 points today so that will all come down to the final day also. 1st 41 Reapers $19,819.00 2nd 40 Kelly's Heroes* $20,840.20 3rd 36 Desperados* $18,918.00 ---- can't win the Championship below this line------------------- 4th 35 Dream Team*^ $16,561.20 5th 28 Coyotes^* $20,626.40 6th 27 Union Jacks* $19,668.00 7th 27 Believers^* $18,467.00 8th 19 Ramones*^ $17,428.60 9th 19 Max Factory*^ $15,609.80 ^ Triple Joker play * Double Joker play 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
