Another chance for us to make some predictions.... Laughing Fish 3 Ye Olde Black Horse 2 (Ye Olde Black Horse receive 1,400 start in 3 games of their choice) Cock'n'Balls 3 Black Horse 2 (Cock'n'Balls receive 2,300 start in 3 games of their choice) Star Eastbourne 2 Hassocks Hotel 3 (Star Eastbourne receive 900 start in 3 games of their choice) Glynde Club 2 Plough 3 (Plough receive 2,100 start in 3 games of their choice)

And here are my thoughts....
Laughing Fish v Ye Olde Black Horse (Ye Olde Black Horse receive 1,400 start in 3 games of their choice) The first (and only) chance for Little Legs to make his choices in the competition.... but will he choose wisely? The Rotters will be seeking revenge for their defeat in the League earlier this year, but the Fish will prevail with a 3-2 home win.
Cock'n'Balls v Black Horse (Cock'n'Balls receive 2,300 start in 3 games of their choice) A tough prospect here for the stallions, but they have good staying power on soft ground so a 3-2 away win looks like a good bet to me.
Star Eastbourne v Hassocks Hotel (Star Eastbourne receive 900 start in 3 games of their choice) The in-form Star team will be tough to beat on their own table, a 3-2 home win maintains their challenge.
Glynde Club v Plough (Plough receive 2,100 start in 3 games of their choice) Gandalf has been singing the praises of the Plough since the start of the competition and they have moved up the table after a couple of good wins at home.... by the Glynde remain unbeaten with a 3-2 home win.

The fish not out of water on their own top and will stop keep the Black Horse to a canter and a 3-2 home win
Cock will not be any old Balls and with clever use of the handicap will prevail 3-2 and we shall only see the Lewes Black Horse break into a trot.
Star shine bright on their own top and will overcome the Hassocks 4-1 to maintain their reach for the skies.
Glynde unbeaten run to continue despite the handicap, and we will not see a furrow ploughed for the away team so a 4-1 home win.

reckon the black horse will come out of the starting gates at the gallop and stop the kippers giggling with a 3-2 away win allowing the Glynde club to take the top spot for at least a week
The balls will be bouncing this week with a nice home start causing the black horse to go lame with a 3-2 home win
The star will be shining again with the Hassocks cowering in their cassocks with a 4-1 home win
The Glynde will be in the right club tonight with the plough in the wrong field with a 3-2 home win

With all of the results now in, time to do some marking..... starting with me.... Laughing Fish v Ye Olde Black Horse (Ye Olde Black Horse receive 1,400 start in 3 games of their choice) The first (and only) chance for Little Legs to make his choices in the competition.... but will he choose wisely? The Rotters will be seeking revenge for their defeat in the League earlier this year, but the Fish will prevail with a 3-2 home win. Spot on for 2 points. Cock'n'Balls 3 Black Horse 2 (Cock'n'Balls receive 2,300 start in 3 games of their choice) A tough prospect here for the stallions, but they have good staying power on soft ground so a 3-2 away win looks like a good bet to me. As usual, I never get tips right for horses and lose my money again.... no points. Star Eastbourne 2 Hassocks Hotel 3 (Star Eastbourne receive 900 start in 3 games of their choice) The in-form Star team will be tough to beat on their own table, a 3-2 home win maintains their challenge. It must have been a cloudy night over in Eastbourne with no shining star this week.... and no points for me again. Glynde Club 2 Plough 3(Plough receive 2,100 start in 3 games of their choice) Gandalf has been singing the praises of the Plough since the start of the competition and they have moved up the table after a couple of good wins at home.... by the Glynde remain unbeaten with a 3-2 home win. A combination of the handicap and a tricky table meant a first defeat for the Glynde team and no points for me - again! Just the 2 points for me this week then.

Now BigTJ..... The fish not out of water on their own top and will stop keep the Black Horse to a canter and a 3-2 home win Correct for 2 good points. Cock will not be any old Balls and with clever use of the handicap will prevail 3-2 and we shall only see the Lewes Black Horse break into a trot. Another 2 points for a correct result. Star shine bright on their own top and will overcome the Hassocks 4-1 to maintain their reach for the skies. A 3-2 away win means no points here.... Glynde unbeaten run to continue despite the handicap, and we will not see a furrow ploughed for the away team so a 4-1 home win. Another 3-2 away win to surprise the tipsters, no points here either. 4 points for BigTJ this week.

Now we get to Little Legs.... Laughing Fish 2 Ye Olde Black Horse 3 The jokers come out tonight to gain our first victory. Well, the jokers were certainly out, but the first win remains elusive.... a consolation point awarded in sympathy for your black peg(s) last night.... A 3-2 home win here means no points. A 3-2 away win that caught out all of the tipsters this week, no points here wither. And another 3-2 away win that means none of the tipsters gained any points from this match either.... Just the 1 point for Little Legs this week....

Ye old tipsters of little faith STAR 2-3 HASSOCKS Bob lost to Derek Tony j lost to Dilly Dave beat Jenny Peter j beat Boball Phil j lost to Pete Close match down to the last 30 seconds So I am going to award him 2 points this week for his very accurate assessment of our efforts in predicting the result of their match!
