Cup Sweep-for fun only, not for real

I was just wondering if anyone here would be interested in being in a Cup Sweep.

It's sort of a Melbourne tradition, even for non gamblers.

Of course, a board cup sweep would be for fun only, no money involved.

 

How it would work is simple. If people want to be in it, they just say so, then before the cup I could enter the names, pull out the horse names and let people know what horse or horses they have before the race.

 

Obviously, there are no prizes except the honour and glory of having had the winning horse.😅

We used to do this on another board I was on and it was all a bit of fun. We had first, second and third place winners plus an honorable mention for whoever had the last horse!

 

If you'd like to be in it, just add your name.

Last calls.

I have not 2 but 4 grandkids here creating havoc.

I will close it off about 6pm if that is okay & do the draw soon after that. Will post placings tonight.

No pet here either at the moment - so Mr Stamps would love to enter, thank you.  😀

 

Edited to add:  Wouldn't it be the perfect result if Precious drew the winner.

Just to add more ' spice ' to the Horse thread.

 

As with ' Caption This ' - add the pic with your explanation of what these are used for.

 

They arrived today - never seen them before - DD - explained the use.

 

For Horses - use your imagination - be ridiculous - have fun.

 

They are made of plastic - they bend - they have screww holes. lol
