Great bit of fun Dev. Good to see you running it again. Are you doing it on a weekly basis or is the 1000 just this Saturday?
I will see about doing the shows again soon if members are interested. Just need to wait for the majority of the moult to finish. I usually start them end October early November.
Back just enjoying club racing for the time being.

Andy it will be weekly, with a rolling total of cash for 6 weeks. Then the winner will be the member with the most money.

I knew that was the way you usually do it. So members need to be careful not to lose everything the first week lol. How many races each week are we betting on? I think it was 6 per week?
