Default 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

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
