Today have gone for
Just the Lady - 13:40 Lingfield
Mutamared - 12:40 Lingfield

Leaves me a chance to pick another 2 if I need to , which will be:
Nickel Silver - 14:50 Lingfield
Trueblue Wizard - 20.20 Wolverhampton

Grrrr had a 2/1 winner with Mutamared but Just the Lady and Nickel Silver came 3rd. Have to sweat it out now for my last one :rolleyes:

Has anyone wanted the top rewards, the 85 million Piggy point jewelry? I really can't see why they bother with it to be honest.

So it seems the way people have been doing it at the moment is finding two races with a samll number of horses eg 4/5 and then placing a bet on the two favorites in each race in a hope that one from each race will come first thus getting you two winners and 10 points.

Well I think thats how it works....

I have been thinking about this way Scottishlass and I don't see its such a good idea.

Take for example Jesa's tips today....(im not picking on your choices JesaRose, they just help explain what i mean )

First race Just the lady came 3rd and the second tip came 4th. This now means that her next 2 tips on another race can't get any points because thay can't both win IYSWIM.

So surely its best to pick maybe one race with 2 favourites and then 2 separate races to give yourself another chance at getting the points?

I'm waffling now :rotfl:

I wasn't suggesting the best idea just putting forward one of the ideas...

Another I believe was to bet and then wait to see how they'd done but you then need to have interenet access all day.

At the moment I'm not sure the best way of doing it - yesterday I picked two from the same and then a another two from a different races and did get two winners. Today I gave up as I accidentally selected two outsiders whoops!!

I like the way that Racecaller has changed so we can now do more than one horse. Its a bit much for Curly to change the rules halfway through the month but so be it. If we want the 10 points then we have to play by his rules.

I managed to find 3 winners out of 4 today, well thats not quite true. The 7 of us in the house picked 2 horses each and the 7 most popular we did as a perm so to speak. After 5 runners 4 of us have managed the 2 winners for the points.

We have:

United Nations @ Wol 7.20

Abbondanza @Wol 9.20

Well done...I think it might take a few days for everyone to get the hang of it but I'm sure we may still be able to get plenty of points off Curly...shall have to wait and see...

Looking at the maths of it Shellyb has a a valid point by saying 2 horses from one race and then 2 from seperate races as the probability that you pick 2 winners is much higher (but would obviously depend on the number of horses in each race) Although being the sad person that I am it seems choosing 4 different races might give you a better chance (all assuming that each horse has even chance of winning...I think I'm going stop now before I get to involved with this)

LOL ScottishLass It does get to ya after a while. Have decided I'm just going to stick to 4 different races and horses...will do my head in otherwise trying to work it out

I've decided to go for 4 different horses in 4 different races as well. I've got enough points to bet 20 each day till the end of the month. Yesterday I bet on 3 horses and 2 won. Just noticed that so far, it's not been a good day for favourites on Racecaller.

I've still got 2 horses to run today - 1 winner (Whiskey Creek) and 1 loser so far.

Can't wait to see how the "professionals" at Pigsback are going to deal with this. Keep a close eye on your winners and ensure you get the PiggyPoints.

No it's not just you. There has only been 1 Click-Through so far this month and year for most people and only 1 in December if I remember correctly.


Pigsback now have a jackpot for Celebrity Big Brother - cutting it a bit fine, I would say. So here's the link if anyone's interested. I have gone for Terry, but who knows?
