Although they probably will race the white line at your place when that's not the place to be. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Lukas 911 Posted April 21, 2018 Looks like we are going out of the cup with Lakeside winning at Ippo..thought we might go through as best runners up..until I just checked and found the other 2 groups have 4 teams in each group and we only have 3 which is not really fair.

Pretty sure it's done on average match points per matches played - so we still have a chance. Edited April 21, 2018 by Noodles Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

As I understand it the best runner up is decided on a % basis of available match points in their group. If that results in a tie I assume average race points per completed meeting comes into play.

dontforgetthefueltapsbruv 10,706 Posted April 22, 2018 It means Boro are in a strong position so long as they beat the Witches 9 points 4 meetings ave 2.25 From the 4 team groups this would require 3 home wins 1 away win and 2 losing points to have a higher ave Given that kind of record would normally top a group its unlikely a second placed team will be as a good as that At least it means the Witches still have something to ride for on Tuesday Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

It’s complicated to explain but we should be in with a great chance of best runner up providing we win on Tuesday Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
