Not sure if any of you have had a dabble with the tote fantasy league, but it looks a bit of fun over the festival. Basically plays similar to things like football fantasy and draft kings where you'll be given a budget to build a stable each day, you can select one horse as your captain that earns double points and a stewards card for one horse that advances the placing of that horse by one.

I've created a league for Fat Jockey anyway if anyone wants to join. League code is 1TR0TE.

Really don't understand why jockeys don't have to be added when a horse is entered

Waiting around for mullins or aidan obreins jockeys to be put through is a pain (definition of first world problems I know :watermelon:)

They didn’t refund me last year so this year I went on live chat to ask before placing any free bets on NRNB markets and they said they would

Think we've established Townend gets first choice of Mullins lot. Even those in the two shades of green :stung:

Second choice on the others is a bit off though isn't it. If Danny Mullins is getting the choice then he's going against the betting in a few cases! Think Willie / owners are just making the decision on the rest after Townend has chosen?

Townend first pick. Then Daryl Jacob on other double greens. Then case by case on the others. e.g. Patrick has ridden EIR a lot so keeps that ride. Not sure he's got any strange rides has he?
 
Anyone considered doubling up The Gunner Yeats in the 2.30 with a few short priced favourites that haven’t got on side yet? Looks a very weak maiden to get him started

​​​​​​EIR and Gaelic Warrior two that the market has the other way around in terms of Danny and Patrick's mounts.

They aren't completely shocking like as you say. Just making discussion the day before it starts :rapture:

Absolutely. Stops us from betting for the sake of it at least!

Danny thinks Champ Kiley is the best in the race apparently (according to Tony Mullins) and he's been very good on him so far. I wouldn't get off him if I were Danny.

Patrick has the ride on EIR at all times (unless Paul picks her). I think he's close to the owners. So that explains that one.
