Leave that with me and I'll come back with some ideas for a Cheltenham tipping competition. -

The way CA battled and outstayed Blacklion who I rate up the straight at Doncaster made me believe he has the ability, attitude and potential to win the Albert Bartlett. Geraghty rates him and thinks he'll come on for better ground so seemed good value to meOriginally posted by Old Vic View PostCarracci Aoache is a bold call.
I'll go through the card for Wedneday for you when we get the decs

Even if its just a virtual comp where everyone starts with £10, one bet a day and see who/if anyone comes out with any money at the end. I know it'll be a bugger to organise and run so any help needed OV I'm sure there's a few of us that'll helpOriginally posted by Old Vic View PostComment

Yep. At the end of the day its not about the money and more about winning and having fun.Originally posted by Lessey View PostComment

Exactly LR! When Caracci Apache storms home and OV is bowing at my feet it'll be almost as sweet as the money I'll win on himOriginally posted by loveracing View Post

I know nothing Lessey
We had a tips competition when we launched but never got much traction.
We had a few jockeys mark our card and all http://www.fatjockey.com/tips/
Happy to have another go.
We will sort out a format and I will sort out a few prizes maybe signed pics and a few free bets if I can blag them. It will be a virtual contest.Comment

I think one or 2 wins in the handicaps could win the title here. If we had a comp in last years fest I would have probably bagged the FJ trophy on the first day with 3 wins.
Vautour 3/1
Midnight Prayer 8/1
Present View 9/1
OV - would we only get 1 or 2 pts to start with?
Gonna start studying hard once the decs are out. I want this title.

Na, j/k mate. Had Faugheen at 3's and Balthazar the next day, but couldn't manage 3 in a lucky like yours especially with a 25's. Good job mate!
Though I did have a nice bet on Arctic Fire at 14's in the County to win 5 figures but someone had to spoil the party.

At the end of the day it's all good fun and as long as someone takes the bookies for some wedge I'm happy!Comment

Maybe we can also set up a thread where members post fest tips (whispers) and logical naps for 1 or 2 senior members/judges to pick and create an FJ acca. This will allow us all to have a chance to cheer on the same horses and hopefully win or worse case lose together?
We can set a day for when the acca gets announced etc.Comment

I'm involved in little Cheltenham competition with some friends, where we each put in £10, and each person has £10 for each race of the festival.
You can have £5ew or £10w, and you are paid out at SP on your chosen bet.
Whoever wins the most money over the week, picks up the cash. Obviously you can pay more than 1st, and you can have a booby prize for whoever finishes -£270 etc.Comment

Good idea. I used to post a bit on neigh years ago and sure they had something like this.Originally posted by loveracing View Post
I nominate Mr McGoldrick as one of the judges. We just need to pick best ones out of his thread
We probably hould have done the FJ board vs Pricewise but too late now. Next year

I will stay out of the nominating because I don't have the experience to judge any of the members. But I am happy to go with your choices guys.Originally posted by Morning Glory View PostGood idea. I used to post a bit on neigh years ago and sure they had something like this.
