It essentially boils down to the Gold Cup today if anybody is going to usurp Pari on the line!

I need Clan to win and then with both of us having Epatante/Honeysuckle any points are evened out.

Dandrew cannot surpass Pari with only Honey and Sir Gerhard still in play given that Pari also has Honeysuckle.

Ballyfitz only has Epatante so cannot surpass Pari.

Tiger Roll cannot overcome Pari even with Energumene as his dark horse, unless he loses a leg and drifts out markedly and still wins.

Vanilla needed a Monkfish win last night couple with Al Boum winning today to give him a shot. Third place could well be secured with an Al Boum victory though.

Big Bucks also needed a Monkfish victory for a chance of success but a Crosshill win today could put him in the mix for the places if Epatante triumphs.

Dandrew B could jump into second with Honeysuckle, Saldier and Sir Gerhard winning, but cannot surpass our leader.

The various leaderboards can be found below.

Kevloaf will be in touch shortly to collect the contributions in lieu of an entry fee plus a donation to the Forum as promised by some of the members at the beginning of the competition and he will then be able to distribute the appropiate prize money to our winners. There was also a bottle of champagne promised by one member to the overall winner and hopefully he will be able to contact our winner to make the necessary arrangement.

A few stats, 101 of the list of 200 horses scored points with Honeysuckle, nominated by 35 players, reigning supreme by a margin of 89 points. 52 of the 101 horses did not receive a single nomination. Of the 70 nominated Dark Horses only 24 scored points.

Thanks for organising and the mamoth effort keeping it up to date all season Diamond Geezer. The Ten To Follow is always my favourite comp of the year, and keeps interest all season long.

Well done on the win Bonjers and doing it with a great score, and hard lines for a great effort Parimutuel.

And I'd expect nothing less from Archie and qzy pulling out a top class dark one. Well done boys.
