I ran a competition on the Melbourne Cup. The winner was LITTLE HAWK. The prize is a $100 share in a series of 10 place bets I'll be making on SEQld races.
The staking plan is in keeping with something I proposed on an earlier thread. It has no basis in logic, but is designed to "amplify" our winnings, provided we can maintain a high strike rate over the 10-bet series (the base unit per share is $10).
1. For the first 5 bets (#1 to #5), any return from the bet is distributed evenly among the remaining bets, thus increasing the base stake beyond $10. Say bet #2 gives a return of $24, we add $3 to the stake for each of the remaining 8 bets.
2. For bets #6 to #9, should they be successful we RETAIN THE STAKE, but distribute the PROFITS evenly among the remaining bet/s.
3. Obviously for bet #10 we keep the lot.
Hopefully we'll end up with a bank more than $100. But there's a risk that we will lose a bit, or lose the LOT. 
I'll post the bets on this thread, and endeavour to keep a running sheet here.
Bet #1 $10 - 07.11.09 BR6 #4 ANOTHER TAKEOVER 2nd $18.13 BANK = $108.13
Bet #2 $12 - 11.11.09 BR6 #2 OUR MOSCATO u/p BANK = $96.13
Bet #3 $12 - 14.11.09 BR6 #5 OUR LUKAS 1st $25.80 BANK = $109.93
Bet #4 $16 - 18.11.09 BR2 #1 BULLION BAY 3rd $23.20 BANK = $117.13
Bet #5 $20 - 21.11.09 BR2 #7 REFLECTION OF JADE 1st $38.00 BANK = $135.13
Bet #6 $28 - 25.11.09 BR1 #7 FLY WITH ME 3rd $50.20 BANK = $128.00 SAFE = $29.33
Bet #7 $34 - 28.11.09 BR8 #2 SECRETS UNTOLD 1st $66.30 BANK = $126.00 SAFE = $63.63
Bet #8 $44 - 05.12.09 BR6 #4 EMMA'S HEART U/P BANK = $82 SAFE = $63.63
Bet #9 $42 - 09.12.09 BR7 #3 ELUSIVE PORT 1st $75.60 BANK = $73 SAFE = $106.23
Bet #10 $73 - 16.12.09 BR5 #7 SPANISH FLING 1st $131.40 BANK = $0 SAFE = $237.63

I remained stunned that chuggers would question my decision not to back Zipping.

A couple of regular pests from here seemed to worm their way into the post-race celebrations.  [/font][/size][/color] [/quote] I think we were invited in by two Director's, the winning trainer, the winning connections via text from Europe, Kentish Rose connections & trainer. The problem was I left a beer n the Owner's & Trainers bar
