Globederby19 Posted December 21, 2023 Share Posted December 21, 2023 Could someone please remind me why I bothered entering this comp. Don't bother, over and out guys and good luck to our (maybe)$1.20 winner. 🥴 1 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

PWJ Posted December 21, 2023 Author Share Posted December 21, 2023 Round 6 (FINAL) for December Finals - Thu Dec 21 Race 3 - Gosford R5 1st - 1 The Extreme Cat P-$2.20 2nd - 9 Off Da Hizzle P-$4.30 3rd - 4 Tears For Fears P-$1.70 Scr: 2,6,13 Leader Rob feeling less than "sassy" after dipping out at the midway point leaving Pete and Graeme just two placings away from winning the 5 To Win Championship. They go different ways in the next and have the same in the last so this looks like the decider ! Graeme on the Snowden/Berry filly never out of the money in two soft track starts - one of them here at Gosford. Pete has elected to take the I Am Invincible gelding from the hot Joe Pride stable, never out of the money in two starts at the distance. A plethora of scratchings mean just two dividends. Nail-biting stuff..... Eliminated $0: Rob 70.80 Pete 70.80 Graeme Race 4 shootout: 3 Global Empire $1.60 Pete 70 9 Missouk $1.80 Graeme 70 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
PWJ Posted December 21, 2023 Author Share Posted December 21, 2023 Round 6 (FINAL) for December Finals - Thu Dec 21 Race 4 - Gosford R6 1st - 6 Willaidow P-$3.40 2nd - 9 Missouk P-$2.10 3rd - 3 Global Empire P-NTD Scr: 1,2,5,8,10,12,13 Poor Pete dips out with one to go and takes home 80 cents. This leaves Graeme just one placing away from being Crowned Champion. Graeme's hopes lie with the Mudgee visitor Osman, a soft track specialist. Eliminated $0.80: Pete 147.80 Graeme Race 5 sole survivor shooting for glory: 2 Osman $2.60 Graeme 147 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

VC! Posted December 21, 2023 Share Posted December 21, 2023 (edited) I don’t think Graeme needs to stress too much about the last race If his horse misses a place he banks 80c which will take him to $1-40 enough to win the comp Be nice to win it with a placegetter though Edited December 21, 2023 by VC!

PWJ Posted December 21, 2023 Author Share Posted December 21, 2023 Round 6 (FINAL) for December Finals - Thu Dec 21 Race 5 - Gosford R7 1st - 8 Utopian Wine P-$1.50 2nd - 7 Caring Lass P-$2.20 3rd - 9 Vandelay Style P-$3.20 Scr: 3,6,12,13 The Mudgee visitor Osman missed the jump and it was tough going from then on for Ian however despite going out with 80 cents to his name today it was enough to get him up to pip Ian by 20 cents to be crowned 2023 5 To Win Champion - well done Mr. Fox ! 11 competitors had 6 potential attempts to pull off a 5 To Win streak in the December Finals but no one managed it. Is this comp too tough ? Do you want to go again in 2024 ?? Eliminated $0.80: Graeme December Finals Result 1.40 Graeme - 5 To Win Champion 1.20 Ian 0.80 Pete 0.60 Tassie Tiger 0.60 Rees 0.50 Hesi 0.20 Gary 0.00 Gordy 0.00 Maurice 0.00 Black Caviar 0.00 Rob 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Globederby19 Posted December 21, 2023 Share Posted December 21, 2023 40 minutes ago, PWJ said: Do you want to go again in 2024 ?? Yes please. Slight bend in the rules tho. A five tier comp. Pick one , Pick Two, Pick Three, Pick four, Pick Five. Nominate which one to have a go at, bit like beat the chasers, . If you manage to pick one , then the following week you go up to pick two. If you pick two then on to pick three. If on pick three you miss , you go back down to pick two and so on........If on pick 5 you miss down to pick 4 etc. It would eventually level it out to what we have just seen , the whole lot bloody useless at picking placed horses. Just taking the piss PJ. lol. MERRY XMAS EVERYONE 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
