Done
Awesome guys. Will sort out draw shortly.
Ooo have we hit the magic 220 yet? I'm not liking all these others taking on two horses it's making me feel nervous...
G'wan. I'll send over another skiver for a second 'oss. All for a good cause and that...
Edit: Done
Cheers dannybgoode.
Just adding up who's paid what. If anybody [i]didn't[/i] add their STW login as part of the PPG payment, please do so.
Barring iT problems, the winnings and donations should be done by February 2017.
Is draw master whatshisname Witham at darcy towers to adjudicate the safety and fairness of the draw?
I'm afraid you'll just have to trust me on that one wrighty. 😆
Was it your mate with the initials RC wrighty?
No mate I didnt tell him. It was only if we fell short. No idea who that is?
Ah, sorry, that would be me.
Ah, ok bear! Thanks...thought I recognised the name but couldn't tie it in with a login. You're in then! 😀
Roight, including myself, we have 19 entries (that includes the double high rollers).
O'Faoláins Boy has pulled out leaving 43 runners.
If we could get two more entries, I'll close it meaning we have 42 horse covered and I'll draw one for All-Proceeds-To-Charity...if everyone is happy with that.
Are you sure there are 43 runners? Five live reporting only 39.
Whaaa?
Hang on, I'll check...was only going by the BBC page.
Right...indeed, we are at 39. So double entries for everyone leaves 1 horse for All-Proceeds-To-Charity if everyone's happy with that. Cheers for the heads-up Mr_C.
Without meaning to sound dim does that mean I now have 4 horses in the running? If so all bets are now closed! Get it on dd!!!
Just about to hit the pedals, will I find out my horses before I set off or will IT problems keep me guessing?
Yes, high rollers have 4 horses wrighty. I'll email horse picks to email addresses from PayPal emails, and post them here.
Just sent you my second fiver dd.
Woo...we're there then. I had myself down for 2 entries (4 horses), but I'll just take the 1 (2 horses) now.
Just cutting horse names from newspaper now. 🙂
Horsenames went in pot, ruffled around by hand. They were drawn by alphabetical forum login. Full complement of horses was drawn for each name i.e. if you put £10 in, four horses were drawn at once. The last horse in the pot was drawn for All-Proceeds-To-Charity.

Thanks everyone, especially those who stuck an extra fiver in to push up entries. I'll try and get it started earlier in the week next year.
The draw was independently adjudicated by my cats and no reversals can be made. I will not take any responsibility for broken tellies when you throw your shoes at it as your horse falls.
I'll try and get the Horse Names emailed out to everyone in the next few hours in case anyone isn't on the forum before the race.
Right...STARTERS ORDERS. 😀
Nice. Cheers for organising.
I'll be quids in if buywise wins.. I've got that in the sweep at work too! 😀
Good effort mate.
Many Clouds!
[b]BOOM![/b]
Cheers Bravisimo!
😀
Just back from some pedals. Excitedly log straight in. First horse on my list I've already backed properly in the race. The other two of the other three in with a shout. Good work sir good work!
Oh and not wanting h to sound mercenary what's in the pot now? I need to decide what to spend it on 😉
19 x £5 - so £95.
£45 to charidee, £25 and £15 and £10 for 1st, 2nd & 3rd.
Not great winnings...sorry. Should have started the thread earlier in the week really. I'll stick the extra fiver with the £45 to make it up to £50 for charity.
I'm assuming that sticking it in the #jennride just giving page is ok with everybody?
Great!
Yup all good with me.
Good call on the jennride.
Are any of mine any good?!
Saint Are and The Last Samuri are both good shouts danny.
1. Rule the World ([b]bearnecessities[/b])
2. Last Samuri ([b]dannybgoode[/b])
3. Vics Canvas ([b]Bregante[/b])
4. Gilgamboa ([b]jambalaya[/b])
5. Goonyella ([b]jambalaya[/b])
Congratulations bear! How funny that the first horse picked was the winner!
Congratulations Rich!
Couldn't have gone to a nicer guy. Well done Rich.
Right...having terrible iT problems at the minute, so hopefully, by end of financial year, all moneys should be distributed. 😀
EDIT: And cheers to bongo for doing the places.
Well done guys. Thankfully I had vics canvas as my 2nd real horse which I got at 100/1 each way.
Great result bear, you can buy some more home improvement books 😉
And a big nod to the organiser Mr darcy, a great idea and cause to recieve the donations.
Enjoy the rest of the weekend fellas.
Yet again I managed to hone my talent in picking 10 horses, with none of them placing.
Oh well, at least someone is happy today:
Ryanair boss Michael O'Leary who owns Rule The World tells Channel 4 Racing: "I am delighted for Mouse this horse has had two broken pelvises and he has brought him back each time. It was a great ride by David Mullins. I am just lost for words and that does not happen for very often."
Winnings now sent out.
Same time next year.
Good work dd
