Please play my Melbourne Cup game, hopefully a distraction that can brighten your day a tad. :)

Select and Paste next to your runner selection, enough Premier League Players from the remaining two games of this GW7

The players FPL scores combined in total must equal the saddle cloth number of a Horse you select to run in the Melbourne Cup.

For example if you like Horse 17 you may only need Bamford :lol:
or for Horse 5 maybe Klich - your choice, as many players as you want to make the total match the saddlecloth number.

First to enter gets first pick of the horses - 24 chances.

If there is only one correct score the Prize is $50 NZ fixed odds bet on that runner - I will place for you and send the winnings (PayPal) or a Charity Choice.

If there are two correct scores then $25 for each correct entry and so on, if you ALL :shock: get the scores correct , the punt will be down to $2NZ each
and the TAB will think I've gone barmy :roll: . I won't be playing Bookie :) there could be a big payout. 8-)

If you think Horse 2 is the easiest (just pick a losing defender), maybe, but the PL is very strange, so if you think you can guess the players scores,
please have a go.

Runner 2 is currently paying $31 Fixed Odds, $50 on that is $1,550 (we have out grown fractions)
The bets will be placed when the winner/s are known after the FPL scores are known and will be at the odds at that time.
non runners - bad luck.

I am not a FPL player but can I have Tiger Moth ? In exchange you get SASSUOLO in the Giro/Serie comp. (original owner didn't want to play)

Good effort SamD bspittles and Richt only 2 points from the matching points 8-)
I wish I had thought up the game a bit sooner and got more entries, I might give the game another go, maybe The Ladbrokes Trophy race if our TAB takes it.

Melbourne Cup result (with racecard-no)

2 (22) Tiger Moth 11-2

3 (1) Prince Of Arran 17-2

4 (5) The Chosen One 40-1

13th (7) Surprise Baby 5/1 favourite

The race was sadly marred by the death of 2019 Derby winner Anthony Van Dyck after he sustained a fractured fetlock.
