Dubai World Cup Carnival 2016 Contest / Accelerate In The Desert On My Mighty Steed!
GENTLEMEN!
it be a call to arms! let us ride into the infinite deserts once again, insofar as the Carnival commences on Thursday. Our leader Mr. Brock appears to still be in occultation. However, we cannot let this great tradition wilt in the oppressive Arabian sun can we? An emphatic no! If the occulted Mr. Brock does not protest, the contest shall take the following form this year, one that is informed by a European flavour. For each Carnival race, we shall place win or each way bets, totalling 100 units of the currency of your preference. These 100 gold dirrhams can also be used on multiple horses. Let us take the Al Maktoum Challenge Round 1 this thursday as an example: http://www.emiratesracing.com/node/3?id=2707#tab-10148 Therefore, one could back the heroic Faulkner for 100 units at a straight win bet. One could also back Faulkner each way, 50 50 for 100. One could also dutch Faulkner and let us say Surfer 50 / 50, or 60 / 40 or 70 30 or whatever you wish. One could also place each way bets on both Faulkner and Surfer at 25 25 and 25 25 for a total of 100. One could also back 3 or more horses to win, 3 or more horses each way and so on, 1 horse to win and 1 horse each way, 1 horse to win and 2 horses each way, etc. in short gentlemen, the only requirement is that the total units wagered is 100 using win and or each way bets. The victor who shall drink victory nectar shall be determined by the infamous ROI formula. Boldly forward gentlemen, do not look back or you will be lost in the sands like Lawrence of Arabia, there is only one way out of this odiously bleak landscape, and that be to whisper into the ear of your lone companion: "accelerate in the desert on my mighty steed!" EDIT: MR. BROCK-S popular NAP shall also be added, such that one race all stakes doubled, warmest regards EDIT 2: Following Mr Brock, the final prices shall be taken from the Racing Post. e?w will be offered at standard bookmakers price for place (1 5) |

gentlemen!
we were joined this week by some new steeds in the desert and they contributed to some crystalline performances, which i doubt any tipster in the world could match, the highlights of which were : - djarum's straight win bet on the ancient tiz now tiz then at 16-1 - gamblin4ever's straight win nap on the popular forries waltz turning that sublime sweet spot of 7-1 odds into capital -jaripeo backing the shocking victor (at least from the position of my weltanschauung) ms. more apsen in the singspiel please note, i am too lazy at the moment to calculate ROI, (i believe gamblin4ever has the highest ROI), therefore i am just listing this at the moment from most returned and will calculate ROI in the next days when i am at convenience in my infinite daze. please note: to djarum: i believe i have added one man band please verify and notify if incorrect to all gentlemen: as always please verify my calculations, as they are performed under the influence of too much sun in the infinite desert 1.

gentlemen, i apologize i was not clear in the initiual guidelines, there is no straight place betting at KLAUSBROKES following stingy UK tradition (or it is very difficult to access a place onyl market ) / may I change them to each ways please? or if you could please adjust selections. if not, KLAUS HILL will add a place bet market for this week. warmest regards

well gentlemen, perhaps the punting highlight of last week was that old bastard Roicead won at 25/1 taking KLAUSBROKES out of the doldrums in the negative capital lands, an entirely unskilled and purely fortunate tactic, insofar as I just selected the highest price in those chaotic 1000m sprints on the straight course and prayed for gold. gamblin4ever continues his world class form after joining us in the desert after missing the opening ceremonies.
on yes, gentlemen, i am still too lazy to take the 5 seconds to calculate ROI so I just place the following role call of honourable men in order of +, but I suspect it be an accurate reflection of ROI in any case. warmest regards, K. 1. gamblin4ever Special Fighter win 500 Safety Check win 166.67 Haafaguinea win 700 wagered: 800 returned: 1366.67 total wagered: 1600 total returns: 3231.67 status: +1631.67 2.

a strategic and tactical duel is emerging among the leaders of Accelerate in the desert on my mighty steed v, as the rugged consistency of gamblin4ever confronts the bursts of brilliance engendered by DJARUM.
a hat tip to the performance of jaripeo who with use of elaborate e/w in races created I believe his most profitable week yet. note to ryonker: sir i see you have the arabian race in your selection. I do not know who won that race ( I also do not care), it is not in the racing post. However, you made a punt punt in that race / as I mentioned I dont know the result , therefore you can either say you want KLAUS HILL to include it or we can throw it in the rubbish bin of history, however if you wnat it included please give me the final odds. (i suggest you include it if you made money, forget it if you did not) About halfway through the desert gentlemen, are we not? 1. gamblin4ever Ertijaal win Very Special e/w win 197.50 Confrontation 430 wagered: 700 returned: 827.50 total wagered: 3000 total returns: 5006.67 status: +2006 2.

ah yes gentlemen, one further rule clarification.
i am guilty of this in week 1, and realized that it is logically incoherent, (which is why I refrained from performing this myself personally,(also because i cannot hit a NAP if you give me the results beforehand), however we did have a case of it this week, and KLAUSBROKES shall allow the man in question to do this, because KLAUS HILL is at fault but no more please. We apologize for my lack of previous clarification: a NAP selection cannot be dutched, etc., has to be a win bet or e/w. I think this is consistent with the logic of what a NAP entails in a contest format and what a dutch entails, although perhaps some compelling arguments can be made against, nevetheless KLAUS POWER must be decisive so : a NAP selection cannot be dutched etc., has to be a win bet or e/w on a single steed warmest regards, K. |
On the Arabian race- I have no idea how I missed that detail- let's go with rubbish. Based upon my other selections this week, it probably ended up bad regardless. :o
