    was having the idea im sure we have all played the tipsters competition at some point (if not i will explain, although im guessing its not needed)

    Each day before the racecards begin (we could let it be before race given the opinions) you get to choose 1 horse, the 1 horse across all the cards that you are very sure will win (or you could choose a 40/1 shot if you thought it would win and it would help you alot more)
    All you need to do to play is place a fantasy €1 bet on one selection from a selected horse of the day. Returns will be calculated at SP odds and the entrant who has built up the most profits after a set period of time (cheltenham perhaps being the last day?)


    would this be of any interest? feel free to slap down the idea if you want

    sweet, now how easy would it be to make a quick program to calculate scores? otherwise im afraid its going to be me on excel who does everything :-P

    prize would ofcourse be something horse racing related, or i can arrange something decent in its place

    I'd def be on for that, not sure if I've heard of a programme to calculate but I'm sure it'd be possible to spread the work between a few people.
