Gamble 2023. Task 4. Horses for courses.

[Kate!]

Here it is. Task 4.

Have fun.

Horses for courses

Each of you will send me the names of 6 horses. You must make them up. You can name them after Tibb people or whatever you like. This bit is just to help with the task so don't feel like you have to be super imaginative.

After you've done that I'll mix them up at random and I'll post race cards for you to bet on. The winners of each race will be chosen by Cherie. For each correct prediction you get 5 points.

The player with the most points wins the task. Let me know how much you want to gamble. By pm.

[Kate!]

I'll also contribute the names of 6 horses.

You may pm yours to me or just post them here.

Diamond Dash
Rainbow Riches
Sunshine
Tiara
Abracadabra
Kissing Cousin

[Vanessa]

[Kate!]

[Alf]

I didn't choose any of the two horses with 'Cherie' in their name. I don't believe that Cherie is vain enough to go for those ones.

[Kate!]

Just Annie and Swan to submit. However I'm not sure if Swan is still playing?
