Rich can you please confirm that if horses are entered outside of the handicap ratings will they be removed from the race in week 3?

Also, how many runs are allowed in the season?

we need both confirmed

tom is up to date now which is great

great job again by the league management team this week thanks for your hard work lads and giving up your valuable free time
which makes the league special

There are no limits on number of runs. I asked this question in an earlier thread and Rich replied

thanks Leon

Sorry bud, don't understand the question specifically? Do you mean if the horse is rated too high/too low, it won't run?

the handicap races have bands 65-80 etc

some have 86 rated horses in these races will this be acceptable or will they be scrathed when it comes to running the races.

Ideally, aim a horse rated over 80 for the MajHcps but this week, as a trial, I will let horses rated over 80 enter the MinHcps and see what happens.

If they all scoot off into the distance then we'll clearly stop that!

Race 21 is a 1m 1f 81-95 major handicap

Not picking on these trainers but Scotty and Keith have horses rated 77 and 79 in them.

Race 16 is the same race 1m 1f 65-80 minor handicap. so those above should be in there?

After moving Scottys and keiths horses to that band leaves one horse in race 21 with a rating of above 81. Might be a good idea to just join some of these races together then.

There are a number of these outside the handicap bands so not meaning to pick on scotty and keith just a example sorry chaps.

One of my own in race 32 is rated 80 but have entered in the 81-95 because there is no minor race handicap to enter over that distance.

Ok Rich no problem!

No worries, Hackett. You had to use someone as an eg. I just entered the horses not knowing what the ruling would be. I think what Rich has suggested is about right.

i have had to enter a few that are a little under the allowed rating eg 78 rated in 81-95

the ratings Eg 65-80 81-95 are very tight
