11dec22 SNOWED IN!

Been snowing all day here in Cheltenham and the hill is closed, probably 6"- 8" fallen and now it is re-freezing.  5 winners today Vince Paige & Terry Matthews 10 points and 4-5.  That brings Vince & Stuart to half way and level at the top of the plate, (Stuart leads on # of winners countback).  The world record points total is 309 so they are both running just ahead of that schedule - top stuff.

Now back to the real comp the other 3 winners were George Waters 7-1 to take over in 2nd and that was despite Paul Berg's 13-8 winner, the final winner was Jimmy McGarrity 7-2.

10dec22 BOLLOCKS!

Ah well we played well I thought.   5 bets today no movement on the leaderboard whatsoever for the first time ever I think, but we did have 2 winners Steve Taylor 7-2 and me 15-8 as I had to resort to a race with less than 16 runners or I risk going dormy with so much abandonment going on.

Was it only me that thought all weather was supposed to mean just that.  So a bit cold and Newcastle can't cope - all weather except if it is cold then is it!

09dec22 PAIR

That's it just two winners Luke Silk 9-2 and Richard Pascoe 7-2

08dec22 NOTHING TOO EXCITING

Although there were 9 winners 4 of those were the same 4-7 winner for the current top four in the plate & 10 points.  Chris Martin 11-4, Ian Carpenter 7-4 to nudge up a few places, Helen Fahey 2-5, Paul Berg 2-1 to go 2nd, & finally best of the day 7-2 for Tom McGarrity to return to the foot of the leader board.
