got 63 just turned it off cant believe i forgot bloody laytown!

62 here. On the plus side I managed to get all the Irish ones which to be fair is rather easy if you follow Irish racing.

Not sure how most most people, especially non Irish, would remember Laytown (used once a year) or Bellewstown (used five times a year).

53 for me.

Surely only the first time counts?,and you should do it without any "help",i.e.from your memory there & then.

Ya I got 71 first time, I usually leave it go for a few hours and then have another crack at it, there is no point doing it and then repeating it straight away. Anyway work is slow in these recessionary times......

very funny.

Think it would be a lot harder if it wasnt in alphabetical order. Missed 7 first time round, 3 then next time. Not the cleverest.

joeflute · 13-06-2009 11:48pm

got 30, very hard when you on have 13 mins, your mind just goes blank. i looked them up though and you would do well to think of them all in that time, its a good question though.
