The table talk
So, as we should all know, I need you guys to post your daily picks as a TABLE.
Here's how:
Step 1: identify the winners of every race you're going to bet in (this is the easy bit).
Laugh to yourself thinking of the loots you will win and imagine the various goods and services you will purchase with your stack of freshly-minted fiddies.
Make sure when making these awesome selections that you adhere to Rules 3
(yes there are two Rule 3s, no I don't know why, now fuck off and refer to Rule 6)
Let's say we're going to back:
Race 1 - Dog Food Delight 100 Win
Race 2 - Never Started - 50 Each Way
Race 5 - Three Legged Tortoise - 50 Win
Race 5 - Donkey Derby - 50 Win
Race 7 - Reverse Gear - 25 Each Way
Step 2: open your favourite Spreadsheet application and create a list with 4 columns like the below:
Column A = Race number. Enter in the format 'R1', R2' etc
Column B = Horse Name. Spell it right, as per the official racecard you dyslexic scum.
Column C = stake
Column D = type of bet. Either W (win) or EW (each way). These are the only two allowable values in this data domain.
Save this spreadsheet so you can re-use it on subsequent days on your inevitable charge to glory.
Step 3: post your selection as a table in this thread:
simply copy your selections from Excel and paste into this thread. Then wrap [TABLE] tags around it like so.
Step 4: Submit your post and admire your handiwork as below
Step 5: ????Profit
If you fuck up this extremely simple task, I reserve the right to be a prick. See Rule 6.

Just an FYI for everyone...copying and pasting from excel or sheets does NOT need tags posted, using tags will render your selection invisible.
e.g No tags

Runners and riders form
balfejohn Mystery surrounds this fellow from a gambling yard. Davy Russel doesn't even know where he's trained. Charlie Sheen Travells well in the main and if improving his jumping he should have a say although he would ideally like it softer. Dead Parrot Gazumped on more than one occasion recently but chances if he can keep brush up on his jumping Degag Twice raced on flat before switching to hurdles where he showed some ability. Comes here as a novice and has it to prove. Price reflects his chance. Dice75 Last years winner finishing with a wet sail. Form since has been patchy and by and large stuck in the barn ever since Dice47 Da Unknown quantity who never raced in a bumper, hurdle or chase but won a point in Ballinaboula in '87. eagle eye Completely changed character since moving stable and chance if settling better early elbows Nearly landed a valuable pot at Limerick. Eoghan104 Covid super spreader owning to unapologetically being at Cheltenham last year. Prefers Aintree but proven winner at the highest table. Gimmeabreak Owners sending him to Cheltenham as their banker for the Xmas loots. Will be sold on to the highest bidder after this race by cold hearted connections so every incentive to run well. GMoran1 Better than the result when fifth on seasonal debut at Christmas. Doesn't take much racing and selectively campaigned goldcupfav Won first 3 starts over fences, the second a Naas Grade 1, but firmly put in his place last time on a seemingly easier assignment. Hitch Owners like a day out but have garnered knowledge with recent outings and improvement likely. ionapaul Slow boat but results more consistent than most. Guaranteed to stay, jumps well and acts on any ground. Jibzzzz Good early season form, mostly let down by jumping since, failing to complete last 2 starts. Others preferred. Lao Lao Owned, trained and ridden by the wife. With restaurants closed recent results suggest he could show up prominent. Lplate Been around the block will be the first Glenbeigh flapper race winner to ever run in the gold ribband. 3 wins at Dromahane followed by ready progression. Quite a reach this but can't rule out of calculations. luckforsome From lovelorn fast eating champion to gold ribband winner would be quite a story but shoots for the stars and who would deny his place in the field. mcnugget Has developed into a very smart chaser, tough and reliable and should be on the premises again. Murdrum Chasing type who has relished the switch to fences this winter, winning brace of 3m handicaps, but he's not up to this level. nicnicnic Former winner thrives on his racing. He takes a licking but keeps on ticking. oleras Beset with ailments but we've seen numerous occasions he cooks up a storm late in the day Pat Mustard taken very well to fences this season. Delivered on promise until a bad fall off a milk float. pokerhand Made up into a useful novice hurdler last season, remains with potential. Raoul Duke III Set to prove to connections last years prominent showing was no fluke. Has changed yards since and won't have to improve much to get competitive. Market moves could be telling. shano1888 After a couple of dismal runs finally got his act together at Sandown but flopped latest run at Wincanton shrapnel Gallic raider whose winning form at Cagnes-Sur-Mer and Compilegne is hard to quantify. Known fetlock issues and missed engagements don't bode well but connections remain bullish. Silver Tiger He's well worth another chance on balance.Tough and reliable so should be on the premises again. Solksjaer Used to be quite an athlete in his novice days according to himself. Recent form can't back that claim up. But has a stubborn resilient streak and chances if everything clicks into place on the day. The Aul Switcheroo He's well worth another chance on balance. Hasn't been dealt a good hand since the Fitz chase and something to prove now. The Situation It's 6 years on from his first win here and 3 years since his 2nd win here so it trends are true should win this year. But it's a long time between drinks now but hall of fame awaits if he can roll back the years. Rounders123 Versatile performer who has already won at Cheltenham followed by Royal Ascot. Outrunning his purchase price. Comment
