No problem. You can still join the league after getting home - or even next week.
Deadline of 11pm is for scoring points from week one. Think last year's Fiso winner, topspur, set up his side in week two before joining league!

Re: Fantasy Racing 2017-18 * Stable Stars game begins 18 Nov *
Nearly every result yesterday, apart from Thomas Campbell, of races which were popular in this comp, was a blow for competitors. If only the money for Apples Shakira had come earlier, many of us would have been saved from Gumball. And it seems to be continuing today with the defeat of Tombstone. At this rate several of us will finish the weekend on nul points.

And River Wylde loses.
I can see North Hill Harvey being popular though.

Starred Faugheen. Just one winner so far with all the favorites getting trounced except Thomas Campbell who I shuffled out and meant to shuffle back in instead of Friday runner Finian's Oscar as noted to see if it ran Friday then swap so should've just swapped when thought of it. Long season to go anyhow and a few more today.

The London bus syndrome strikes again. Not a sniff of a winner for race after race after race, and then two come long within 10 minutes.

The Greatwood brings you back down to Earth.
London Prize - Fell
Jenkins - Nowhere to be seen
Mohaayed - Nowhere
First three were all 8-1 or higher.

The leader's score does seem to be obscuring the target so obviously it's catchable. Dame De Compagnie was the other one that flopped btw so the 'another one' was a horse not the competition so you simply misread what was said.

Re: Fantasy Racing 2017-18 * Stable Stars game begins 18 Nov *
Half of last week's Top 20 not there this week, and half a dozen of the drop outs not even in the Top 100.
Last week's 5th scored zero.
That's the nature of this particular beast of a competition.

Re: Fantasy Racing 2017-18 * Stable Stars game begins 18 Nov *
I'd say it's more of a boar of a competition than a beast. There's little selection skill involved. It's more a secretarial exercise in which you look at the odds on runners over the weekend, how valuable the races are in which they are running, see if there is a decent easily forecastable winner of any bonus race(s) and Bob's yer uncle, with just a cursory glance at the future implications of doing the bleedin' obvious.
Most of the early leaders didn't follow this template approach and tried to be smart and succeeded. But their approach is doomed over a longer run, when they will be slowly eaten up by the masses who do adopt the template. Yet another case of "slowly, slowly, catchee monkey".
Just in case any poster with an "only literal" mind is thinking of letting me know how bore is spelt ...........

there is also the choice of which horse you transfer out, just like fpl this can come back to haunt you, however not as important now you have 3 transfers a week.
