    In Response to Re: SCOOP 6 CLUB -UPDATE for 26th July 2014 : Everyone, right? I thought everyone was just kidding and really they knew I was a bookie bashing boss!!!!! :( Only messing, I am useless, hence I gave my picks and gave Wynne free license to change as many as he wanted. As it turns out it's a good job he did. It was fun to be involved though, even though a lot were (rightly) changed it did add abit more fun to the afternoon thinking of it as 'my week'. Although I take your point, the chances of us winning on my week are probably 500,000/1 as opposed to only 495,000/1 on Father V's week.  I wouldn't complain at all if I was told the selection process is changing and I wouldn't get a go, but likewise I'm more than happy with the way things are now. I'm only in for a couple of quid every week anyway, maybe the bigger shareholders should get 2/3 weeks to every 1 week of the minor shareholders such as myself. Whatever you guys decide is best is fine by me. I think Father V is doing a great job overseeing it all though, there is no need for any knee jerk reactions there!!!

    I agree 100% with you DOHHHHHHH. I only pay for one share a week and like the way it's run now. Vaigret ably assisted by Wynne and others do a great job and it's much appreciated.

    If the way people are chosen changed so that bigger shareholders have more goes than smaller shareholders, I would have no objection in the slightest.

    As Vaigret said in an earlier post, once the week's 'tipsters' have been selected, others can post their thoughts on this thread, but ultimately the final decision rests with that week's people. They might decide to make all the selections based on those threads or ignore them - thats the whole beauty of it. 

    We all wait with anticipation, some weeks the 'dream' goes up in an instant and on others we have one of the last tickets going onto race six and we are all biting our finger-nails...great fun for small outlay. :)

    In Response to Re: SCOOP 6 CLUB -UPDATE for 26th July 2014 : And you will always pick the wrong horse out of the number of selections given for each race.  Both wynne and I could both say we would have won this twice already if people had taken our advice on the last race but IF IT WASNT FOR THE PEOPLE WHO PICKED THE FIRST FIVE WE WOULDNT HAVE EVEN GOT THAT FAR for us to even say that. Cant understand the complaint now who would have picked  Heavy Metal yesterday, why didn't we go with just the banker in the last Tagroodha etc etc .Who would have thought Dohhhhh would have been one of our best winners.   There are so many ways to do this but we have outperformed Scoop6superclub over the time we have been doing this. Every member has a chance to give advice to the chosen person each week, it is their right to take on board or disagree. One of these days it will click.  If the majority disagree with the current system then I will gladly hand over to somebody else to administer this. Come on people have your say and if I am doing wrong then take over and good luck. Father V

    Terry..... You're FIRED!!! Lol....

    In all seriousness, I was a bit gob smacked last night when I was told about 'the rant', by someone. I came on thinking it would be something about nothing. Personally, if it's not broke, why fix it??

    Not entirely sure what has occurred but from a personal point of view I enjoyed it when it was my turn to pick the horses, it is extremely hard at the best of times to pick one winner let alone six,so in that respect it's great we can listen to other syndicate members opinions.

    I am happy with the way we are sharing the picks to be fair and Terry is doing a great job.

    Terry,I have no complaints or suggestions !
    It is like a lottery I believe,Joe Bloggs could choose 6 for whatever reason and scoop the lot!

    It is a matter of luck + judgement,just like poker!

    I am very grateful for you putting in the time and making it possible for every one to be part of a syndicate,which most would not be able to afford on their own!

    Good luck,may the syndicate carry on and be a thriller each week, as it has been in the past,we have come very close a few times!

    Didn't comment earlier as felt some of the criticism was directed at me. However, I am happy that I tried my hardest and put a lot of work into my selections and final picks on Saturday, and to get 5 out of 6 isn't a bad return IMHO. I will though not put myself forward to select again but continue to be an investor, if this syndicate continues. I am happy with this decision as it takes pressure off me! For this club to grow we should encourage more investors. Even if they don't want to be selected to pick the horses, the more money we can invest, the bigger perms we can have, which hopefully will increase our chances of winning this one week.

    I would also like to thank Terry for his continued work in organising all this with no reward and not enough thanks sometimes. Cheers Father, I do appreciate all you do.

    I doubt if it was a go at you Alan as people who live in glass houses shouldn't throw stones.

    Thanks for your continued support

    Some helpful information for Saturday:
    INTRINSIC, one-time favourite for the Wokingham before agonisingly missing the cut for the Royal Ascot sprint, looks likely to get his chance to bid for big-handicap glory in Saturday's 32Red Stewards' Cup.

    THE Roger Charlton-trained Thistle Bird heads ten confirmations for Saturday's Group 1 Markel Insurance Nassau Stakes at Goodwood as she bids to avenge her agonising defeat in last year's renewal.

    my initial thoughts but must review what trainers say in RP in morning.

    2.05 Tatlisu, Stepping Out, Daylight, Kinglami and Confessional
    2.20 Enraptured - if any horse was given a race first time out to win next time ie today this was the one.
    2.40 Rainbow Rock
    2.55 Enlace , new providence-This nursery usually won by horse that is way above nursery class,  JWonder who won at Goodwood today and has run in guineas this year won it last year. Both these horses been heavily backed.
    3.15 sultanita
    3.50 boomerang bob, muthmir, intrinsic, discussion to follow

    Latest information to help with selections:
    MUTHMIR created a tremendous impression when barely coming off the bridle to slam a useful York field last Saturday and is an "improver with the right profile" as he bids to win the 32Red Stewards' Cup at Goodwood on Saturday.

    William Haggas, who trains SkyBet Dash winner Muthmir and also runs last year's winner Rex Imperator, will be bidding for a third success in this prestigious handicap in seven years, having also won it with Conquest in 2008.
    Intrinsic, who just missed the cut for the Wokingham when heavily punted ante-post, is seeking a third successive victory this season after wins over the Goodwood course and distance and at Ascot.
