2022 Festival Antepost Tipping Competition

[Nwfb89]

I wrote a script to calculate all the points scored in this years tipping comp, so I thought I'd work out who won last years for completeness! (And to test my script worked...).

I did suck all the tips into a spreadsheet so hopefully they're all correct, and many many typos/wrongly formatted posts later, I believe last years winner was Mighty with 135.1 points! Very closely followed by TiggerRoll with 132 points, and Odin completing the podium places with 123.7 points. The winner being decided by an excellent 35 points in the Plate, tipping up Coole Cody at 25/1.

All the results can be found HERE. If anything is wrong... well you only have yourself to blame for typing it wrong or formatting it wrong so my sympathy has disappeared over the past hour or so

Capitals on a horses name my friend... and a few spelt wrong, did say I wouldn't catch them all! So bloody glad that it's automated in a google form this year!

Gets you up to 91 points though... bit better!

Bloody Hell! Winner in my first year on the forum - all downhill from here…

I just want to thank Native River for his excellent festival trends thread in the members forum. It was he who suggested Coole Cody as the one to watch in the Plate, so I owe this victory to him - staggered only 3 people tipped it up. If you’ve not read it yet, go and have a look. Plenty of gems and trends to look at for this year’s festival too.

Absolutely no pressure this year then…

Thanks for the kind words Mighty!

Now if only I had listened to my own work and put Cody down I could've gone close. Saying that I'll take the top 20, my best life achievement since topping that out Sky Fantasy horse racing 4 weeks into the year
