Sniper and I discussed this after the Cup and we thought that it would be a lot more intriguing if they had the field as individuals, i.e. if Joe Talamo is part of the field and he wins 2 races and Pelsier is also part of the field and wins 1, the field score is 2- so the maximum number of wins for all the jockeys in the field. Therefore the individual wagering interests have a much better chance of actually winning (under this scenario Julien Leparoux would have been the winner this year.)
Thanks Philly. This was a great bet!
