The Punting Board Flemington Carnival Tipping Comp - 2016

[iluvparis]

The greatest annual competition on Big Footy is back!

Rules

1. Each day make ONE selection in each race at Flemington
2. Order your selections from MOST (9) confident to LEAST (1) confident.
3. If your selection wins you receive points based on how highly you ranked your selection (i.e. on a 9 race card, if your highest selection wins you get 9 points, while you would get 1 point for your lowest).
4. You can edit any scratchings up until the start of Race 1.
5. A late scratching will be replaced by the SP favourite. With that selection dropping to the bottom of a tipsters confidence rankings. Every other tip will move up a position as a result.
6. Most points wins.

Winner shares in a $50 quaddie on Sandown Classic Day.

If you change your mind about a selection and it's after race 1 but they haven't raced yet can you still change it?
