07nov26 NEW LEADER!

2026-11-08T10:23:38.785+00:00

On the day with the most winners so far this comp Paul Berg pops in his second 4-1 winner in a row to go top. Sorry for the delay went to see the mighty CTFC beat Halifax in the cup and never made it back home, have to say the 2-0 really flattered CTFC who could have easily lost in the second half.

Back to the racing so 7 winners the other 6 were Gary Cawsey & Steve Taylor both 11-4 & 10 points and another 10 pointer for Ian carpenter at 3-1, Mark Lowry 6-4, Paul Stobbart 13-8 & Tom McGarrity 4-7 were the rest.

Looks like could be 46 just waiting for Andy Stevens to pay - he's always last :-) and not heard from Darren Mills after a couple of reminders so he may fall away

So pretty much same prizes as last time but will confirm

Still time for new players - spread the word

2026-10-23T19:50:29.632+01:00

Well two people are!

Just Tom Feeney 3-1 & Tom McGarrity evens were all there was! Not sure of the total numbers will be within one or two of last time Paul Stobbart, George Casserly & Helen Fahey all returning but lost Craig & Tim Payne. Might be a few not paid yet so others still in doubt

22oct26 OPENING WITH A ZERO

2026-10-23T16:33:07.257+01:00

12jul26 FINAL ROUNDUP AND NEXT COMP

2026-07-12T20:10:19.741+01:00

So big news is the win for Steve Carter first played in comp #38 March 2015 so this is his 16th comp (he's missed the odd one or two) previous best was a 3rd in 2018 actually on a larger total than this win £32.11! I think the lesson learned here is -£25 with 3 days to go and £56 behind it is still possible. So congratulations to Steve and a great deal of sympathy to Mark leader for so long played brilliantly in his attempt to defend the title only ever done once and not for the last 20 years

Good winner for Jimmy McGarrity on the last day as well 16-1 to go 3rd and 15-2 for Tom McGarrity to go 9th and miss the cash by 62p

A few words about the plate Stuart from start to finish to go 3rd on the all time list with 5 wins 1 behind Justin Sercombe. Ian Carpenter back in the top 2 for the first time since #23 (August 2009)

Proposed dates for next comp allowing for summer holidays and targeting a nice meeting to end (Windsor for the Berkshire Million series the end of Jan 27) - suggests a start towards the end of October a nice new season jumps event that works well.

Have a good summer everyone and GO ENGLAND!
