And here are my predictions.... Ye Olde Black Horse v Cock'n'Balls (Cock'n'Balls receive 4,100 in 3 games of their choice) This horse has been stuck in the stable in this competition so far and the handicaps will be tough to catch, but a late burst of speed see them cross the line with a 3-2 win in a very close finish. Plough v Star Eastbourne (Plough receive 1,000 in 3 games of their choice) Not much to choose between these two teams and much will depend on what team the Plough have this week, but the stars to just edge this with a 3-2 away win. Hassocks Hotel v Black Horse (Hassocks receive 300 in 3 games of their choice) Another horse that has been caught in the starting gate in this competition so far, the handicap is hardly a factor but a 3-2 home win for the Hassocks. Glynde Club v Laughing Fish (Glynde Club receive 3,300 in 3 games of their choice) The top of the table clash and the home table and the handicap will definitely play a part in this match, much will depend on the draw and the use of the jokers.... a 3-2 home win is my best guess here.

Cock will not need a rise in this fixture leaving the black horse with an overdraft with a 3-2 away win
The plough will be on the straight and narrow and the Star with forrowed brows another 3-2 home win to boost the plough upwards
Hassocks to just pip the visitors at home 3-2
Glynde will help the fish flounder with a 3-2 home win to even up the league cup in the run in

Ye Old Black Horse to break into a trot and overcome the handicap by trimming the Cocks balls and a 3-2 home win.
Plough will not keep a straight furrow and will fall 3-2 at home to a shining Star.
Hassocks will find the Black Horse cantering to a 3-2 away win.
Another close encounter but Fish swim uphill against the Handicap and secure a very tight 3-2 away win at the Glynde Club.

With all of the results now on the Lewes website, time to do some marking.... I will start with Little Legs for a change.... Ye olde Black Horse 2 Cock 3 Clearly another captain with no confidence in his team... who recorded their first victory in this competition with a 4-1 home win. No points here. Perhaps a simple case of numeric dyslexia struck with the Plough winning 4-1 rather than the other way around.... .... no points here either! Spot on with this result though for 2 good points. Obviously had a lot of confidence in the Fish team though.... 1 point for correctly predicting the away win. 3 points for Little Legs this week.

Let's see how the current leader got on this week.... Ye Old Black Horse to break into a trot and overcome the handicap by trimming the Cocks balls and a 3-2 home win. It was more of a gallop by the Old Black Horse with a 4-1 home win.... 1 point. Plough will not keep a straight furrow and will fall 3-2 at home to a shining Star. The Star were scattered 4-1.... no points here. Hassocks will find the Black Horse cantering to a 3-2 away win. The Horse fell to a 3-2 defeat... no points here either. Another close encounter but Fish swim uphill against the Handicap and secure a very tight 3-2 away win at the Glynde Club. But a good 2 points to finish this week with a correct result for this game. 3 points for BigTJ this week.

How did our wonderful wizard do this week..... Cock will not need a rise in this fixture leaving the black horse with an overdraft with a 3-2 away win A 4-1 home win left the visitors feeling rather limp.... no points here. The plough will be on the straight and narrow and the Star with forrowed brows another 3-2 home win to boost the plough upwards A 4-1 home win pushed them up even further.... and gave you a point. Hassocks to just pip the visitors at home 3-2 Spot on for 2 more good points. Glynde will help the fish flounder with a 3-2 home win to even up the league cup in the run in Certainly at least one Fish was left high and dry in this game.... .... but a close 3-2 away win kept us giggling on an enjoyable evening and meant no points for you here! 3 points for Gandalf this week as well.... seems like a very popular number!

And lastly.... me! Ye Olde Black Horse v Cock'n'Balls (Cock'n'Balls receive 4,100 in 3 games of their choice) This horse has been stuck in the stable in this competition so far and the handicaps will be tough to catch, but a late burst of speed see them cross the line with a 3-2 win in a very close finish. The final Horse fell at the fence, but the previous 4 had all been on form to give me a point for the home win. Plough v Star Eastbourne (Plough receive 1,000 in 3 games of their choice) Not much to choose between these two teams and much will depend on what team the Plough have this week, but the stars to just edge this with a 3-2 away win. A 4-1 home win that seemed to catch out most of the Tipsters this week.... no points here for me. Hassocks Hotel v Black Horse (Hassocks receive 300 in 3 games of their choice) Another horse that has been caught in the starting gate in this competition so far, the handicap is hardly a factor but a 3-2 home win for the Hassocks. The home banker that seemed a popular choice to give me 2 points. Glynde Club v Laughing Fish (Glynde Club receive 3,300 in 3 games of their choice) The top of the table clash and the home table and the handicap will definitely play a part in this match, much will depend on the draw and the use of the jokers.... a 3-2 home win is my best guess here. The jokers were played and the handicaps were beaten.... a 3-2 away win means no points for me, although I am tempted to give myself a "sympathy" point for my lack of table time! 3 points for the Warrior this week.... along with everybody else!
