Just 4 to go round. Only a win divvy to be paid so anyone needs to be on the winner to progress. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
JustPlodded Posted November 29, 2023 Share Posted November 29, 2023 I bet PJ was only on #1 because it was trained by a Mr Jenkins. As for the other two…. another 10 picks and I would have got close… maybe… 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
PWJ Posted November 29, 2023 Author Share Posted November 29, 2023 Actually I never anticipated this scenario - 6 horse field reduced to 4 with late scratchings - when I created the Rules. Here's what I will rule: Win div will be the "place bet" and you will progress If you select the runner-up you will progress but NO COLLECT Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
