2016 Charity Turf Challenge

BOLD INSPIRATION raced on the 30/04/2016 on the Island

Hi Frodo

It was the 1st race preview on the USO how.MA said GL's prep starts in that race.
I took a fortuitous r100 each way on tote

I was running top of the tops but last night's 1900 pulled me down to #5.

Before last night

I went from 14 to 35....no solid speed...lol

Well I'm standing at an incredible 1074 position.
With 21 points

I have 2 entries

Both sitting on Rank; 71 (51 Points)

Sad thing

Both my entries have 1 horse either "Doubtful" or "Retired"
Entry 1 - Legislate
Entry 2 - Brutal Force

Well,guess tomorrow or Monday provisional leaderboard comes out so we can see how many points off the pace we are

Still no leaderboard???can't be taking so long to audit!!!

I went from 14 to 35 to 40 over the weekend...then yesterday I was 43 and today I'm 44....guess there were feature races yesterday and today....anyway...I've lost interest now.out of the running

Is Potomac not a member ?

The charity turf challenge amongst other things is meant for a chunk of the proceeds to go towards the horse care unit but by my calculations seem like they are running this years comp at a nett loss. With the winner getting 100k and the stand alone july winner getting 20k thats already 120k and they only recieved about a 100k or from entries.
