Americain reserved for race 6

is that what all those reserved posts mean? lol

nah they're just so cavey can put the results in those comments.

you'll get assigned horses randomly

oh cheers, was worth a try lol

[Nige]

If a horse gets scratched, will another be assigned or is it tough luck?

[c4v3m4n]

I'm going as fast as I can so I can catch up with the races, but with so many entrants its taking me a while to write it all up, not to mention getting the results.

Paitence please while I get these done. :)

Exactly Toga.

The reserved posts are just to seperate the races.

You'll be reassigned a new horse.

No worries c4, love your work, take as long as you like :)

[Nige]

Oh, that's awesome. So it's all fair play! Good stuff, c4.

Why would you want Americain in race 6 anyway when the Melbourne Cup is race 7? :P

Well finally caught up to Race 3.

Phew.

Taking a 15 minute breather, than I'll put Race 4, 5 and 6 up.

Then I'll chase down the full results of the first few races.

Race 1: 7News Plate 100m

Was this really only 100m? That seems like a very short race, but then again I know nothing about horse racing...

No it was actually 1000m which is the shortest of any races today.

Mistakes will be made due to the rushed nature of the sweep.

So so much to do.

Once I've organised Race 6 and Race 7, I'll start organising the leaderboard.

First 2 races, last and second last....awesome.  :P

Did I sleep with random.org's sister? I'm getting slaughtered so far. :'(
