Everyday you can NAP one of your selections and you will be rewarded with Double points for your NAP if it WINS!

Who ever has the most points at the end of the Festival is the winner!
Prizes for this competition are, the winner will get v£30000 the runner up v£15000 and 3rd place v£5000.

Also just realised that St Pats is on a Saturday this year, that is not going to help my contributions to the “am I an alcoholic” thread :D

Potentially heavy ground could throw a real spanner in the works for my ante post bets - here's hoping for some dry and milder conditions!

Can't bloody wait for Tuesday now...
