What do I have to do ? REGISTRATION IS NOW CLOSED
Register for the competition by posting on this thread before 12 noon on Friday 25th February 2011. Select one horse from any British race meeting on each Saturday and one horse for each of the days of the Festival. The Festival selections must be from races at Cheltenham but the Saturday selections can come from any race meeting on that day.
Selections each day, with name of horse, race time and meeting have to be sent to me by Personal Message or appear on this thread 30 minutes before the start time of the First Race in Britain on each given day. The choice of PM or thread selection is up to you, it depends on how secretive or confident you are. Of course I will post my selections on the thread to avoid any cheating on my part. LOL how could a Father of the cloth cheat I hear you ask !
If you wish to Nap under a pseudonym please enter on the thread otherwise you will be be entered in your Sky Poker Name.
How will winners be settled?
Any winner will be settled at starting price to a £1 level win stake.
If your horse is a non runner the £1 stake will not be deducted from your total.
Not selecting a horse on any given day results in a £1 loss.
How will the winner of the Naps Table be decided ?
The winner will be the tipster who makes the most profit over the 11 day selection period and the updated table will appear on the start of this thread after each day of the competition so you will know how you are doing.
What are the Prizes ?
First Place - £25 bet with SkySecond Place -£10 bet with SkyThird Place -£5 bet with Sky
I think I have covered everything but if not i will answer any queries if posted on this thread and REMEMBER, If you are really confident about your selection get on at SKY BET to see if you can get better odds to boost your personal pot of gold. By the way don't follow my tips, they are rubbish!!!
I hope you think my idea is good, that you will enter and encourage your Sky Poker buddies to take part as well.
God Bless you all Father Vaigret

Q. What does Nap mean?
Hi all,
Badboy, Ninsnanny, Fitzer, Irishrover,any2suited,wynne19838, Kiwini4u and maxally you are all entered.
Alan, good question
Definition - "A horse that a tipster is almost certain will win"
Its derogative is probably from Napoleon , going Nap etc but not sure. Very good question , it has always been used in horse racing to denote a tipsters top tip.
