**Saturday Tipping Competition - June 11th**

Hi All and welcome to this weekends Saturday Tipping Competition ... After last weeks excitement of the Derby meeting we're building up to next weeks mouth watering fayre from the Royal Meeting with some interesting, if not lacking in a little quality, action around the country. The main action centres around Sandown & York and these are the meetings to make this weeks selections from. The action is pretty competitive with plenty of tricky handicaps to trawl through with our 'Feature Handicap' being a lovely 20 runner affair from York. We'll keep the same format as the last few weeks, everyone starts with a 'Betting Bank' of 100 Points, you have to make just FIVE selections and can put however much you want on each selection, win or each way, but you must invest your full 100 Points. Your selections must be made from this Saturdays nominated meetings at SANDOWN & YORK, and ONE of your selections must be made in the weekends 'Feature Handicap Race', the 3.15 from YORK . The winner will be the person with the most points at the end of the day, with all investments being settled to bookmakers standard terms. Below are all the details you'll need (i've made a slight change to the non-runner rule) -


THE MEETINGS TO MAKE YOUR SELECTION FROM

SANDOWN - 1.55 to 5.15 (7 Races)
YORK - 2.10 to 5.30 (7 Races)

THE RULES

You Have 100 'Betting Points' To Invest
You Must Make FIVE SELECTIONS From The Nominated Meetings
One Selection Must Be In The Feature Race - 3.15 @ YORK
You Must Nominate Your 'Stake' On Each Selection - There is no minimum stake amount.
Your Selections Can Be Win or Each Way
Any Non Runners - Your Stake Will Be Voided & Included In Your Return (Unless your selection is changed before the first race)
All Returns Will Be Settled At Standard Bookmakers Terms
The Winner Will Be The Person With The Most Points At The End Of The Day

Last week Braveheart gave us all a lesson in 'Top Tipping' by racking up a record points total of 510pts with impressive 16/1 & 15/2 winners. That really was quality tipping however can our current champion carry his top form into this weekends challenge. Winners, as always look like they're going to be pretty hard to find so any score close to last weeks total would be amazing. Anyway, enough of my waffle .... Good Luck to all that enter .... Let the battle commence !!!!

Cheers
