Handicap 1 Thursday 17th May - start list
15/05/2012 by Vanessa.
Here is the start list for Thursday’s handicap 1.
If you are not on the list and you would like to run then just post below and I’ll add your name.
Please note that some people have ‘unchecked’ handicaps because they have not done any races I know of recently, so they cannot score points on Thursday. These are marked in yellow. Once they have done a handicap then they can start scoring points for the next three. Best 3 total scores out of the 4 races wins the series.
