Eliminator Handicapping Challenge

[Falcon Oaks]

As it always seems fun to handicap the races as we watch them, I suggest we have a little simple handicapping event to add to the mix.

Basic premise is submit picks for order of finish 1st thru 3rd for each round of the Eliminator . And in the spirit of The Eliminator eliminate the handicappers with the lowest totals in each round. Field cut in half from round 1 to round 2 and again cut in half from round 2 to final and delcare an Eliminator Handicapping Champ.That's it

Each handicapper submits his picks 1st thru 3rd for all 10 races of the first round . Points are awarded 3-1st, 2-2nd, 1-3rd and bonus point for picking a winner on top. Total possible points 70 for round 1 .

Somebody will need to volunteer as scorekeeper and co-ordinate the handicapping event. I would but I will be busy with the races and getting the fields set for the next rounds. So Volunteer early . First come first serve but should be present in chatroom both nights.

Not really any prizes but maybe someonre could offer up some free breeds to the winner? Any takers?
If we go ahead lets post on Ask The Experts. Thought this would be good fun as I have no idea who the favorites are. Falcon

[Cannorth Stables]

Hmmmmm........ Shouldn't need any FREE breeds for the Winner..... IF.... they can WIN.... they're not the ones that need the FREE Breed.
Last place finisher is the one that needs the FREE breed. Okay.... just kidding.

Don't plan on being a score keeper, the TTDN keeps me hopin', but, I'll offer a FREE breeding to Hopped Up for the winner in the FINAL.

ALSO... ONE FREE breeding to the loser in the FINAL to my WORST Stallion. Okay.... just kidding again.

(HU will be reserved for 1 breed to WINNING stable)

***

I will also offer ONE FREE breed to the loser in the FINAL..
Oh my, another FREEBIE.
(Bobby O will be reserved for 1 breed to LOSING stable)

Therefore, whether you are first or last you score.

Just something different...........


Thanks

I have not volunteered for anything lately so If you want me to be score keeper no problem!!!
James
PS: I will offer a free breed to MoneyMaker to the winner
PSS: Points are awarded 3-1st, 2-2nd, 1-3rd and bonus point for picking a winner on top(?). Total possible points 70 for round 1 .So do you mean if someone pick the winners in all races they get a extra 10 points or can you explain what you mean by the bonus points

[Falcon Oaks]

no what i meant if a persons selection for the winner in a race wins that race he gets 1 additional point for having the winner at the top of his selection

example 1-Picks 4,5,9

Race result 4,9,7

Gets 3pts for win 2 for 2nd and additional point for winner on top-6 pts total

example #2- Picks,4,6,2

Race reusult- 2,8,4- 3 for winner, 1 for 3rd- 4pts. total

we dont have to do this but it rewards one for picking the winner on top.
