    Tout Seul leads by 2 points going into the last race - it's going to be very close for tomorrow

    Apologies, the screenshot doesn't show Tout Seul's 3 points for Faugheen, so it is 15-10 going in to the last

    Last day so before the selections let me thank both Diamond Geezer and New Approach for the work they have put in on this and many other competitions. They are ubiquitous and may too easily be taken for granted. Totally committed, and at times in challenging personal circumstances, they put it all together every time for our enjoyment. Thank you!

    Today is even tougher than yesterday so in hope rather than expectation here are my selections.

    12.40 Alletrix/Lady Buttons
    1.15 Espoir D’Allen/ Farclas
    1.50 Samcro/Sharjah
    2.25 Total Recall/ Flawless Escape
    3.00 Sutton Place/Snow Falcon
    3.35 Our Duke/ Killultagh Vic

    Good luck and a profitable day, Therightroad.

    Under a bit of pressure 5 down with a lot of my thoughts similar to Touts selections , re-gigged it a small bit before i head to Mass.

    So we reach the final stage of the competition with Tout Seul leading Therightroad 15-10 but a difference of only one race in points.

    I'd like to thank Eddie (edgt) for sponsoring the competition, to all the members who took part and to NewApproach for taking over the scoring duties whilst I have been otherwise involved.

    NewApproach is away this afternoon so I will be scoring and will update the leaderboard below after each race

    Once Our Duke was out of contention I was cheering for Kilultagh Vic. Still waiting on all clear, with fingers crossed.

    Desperately hard luck, Therightroad!

    Congratulations to all who kept Tjukurrpa in their thoughts for the past few months and served her memory with appropriate good humour and kindness to each other.
    Special thanks to those who put in all the hard work re scoring and keeping us in the know.
    The winner, (hopefully a non drinker), will allow the hip flask to become a perpetual trophy; otherwise i have another paper, door stopper of a horse's head weight type to fill the void in 2019, in which case the prizes and presentation be made in Leopardstown as Ml O Leary may not like the prospect of one of his planes being damaged in transporting it !

    Great final Tout Seul & Therightroad. Congrats TS and thanks DG & NA for all your efforts, very much appreciated.
    Pluralism of Ideas and the prosperity of any land are intertwined. Freedom of minds and skill of intellect to 'think the unthinkable' is how humanity has progressed; when minds are incarcerated nothing endures.
