bluesquare Stewards’ Cup

Postby Mark » Mon Jul 26, 2010 10:27 am

Blue Square are delighted to announce our bluesquare.com Stewards’ Cup competition for all clubs within the three Conference divisions.

Our prestigious Glorious Goodwood race will take place at 3.40pm on Saturday, 31st July – Live on Channel 4.

To commemorate our new three year deal to sponsor the league we have created a prize fund for clubs centered around this showpiece race. Each club in the Blue Square BET Premier, North and South has been allocated a horse in the race.

Whichever horse wins that club will receive a cheque for £2000 plus an additional amount determined by a £100 bet on that horse. So for example a 20/1 winner would yield another £2000 for the lucky team.

The random draw took place this morning at the Blue Square offices in London and the horses/clubs are as follows:

As a keen follower of "nag thrashing" (as a mate calls it), the above list is roughly in betting order ie Genki & Palace Moon are the current favourites. Singeur has little to recommend it on form but it is a bit of a cavalry charge and anything in the list could win (except Laddies Poker Two which is a non-runner) - wouldn't bank on this initiative resulting in a cash windfall for the boro though !

Now out to 50/1 on the betting.

Last few results:

10th out of 10 at York - 24th July
20th out of 20 at Newmarket- 7th July
3rd out of 20 at York- 12th June
4th out of 9 at Southwell- 20th May
7th out of 14 at Newmarket- 1st May

They were all weaker races than the stewards cup so if Singeur wins it'll be a hell of a shock.
