GROUPIES RESULTS -Spring 2021 rounds 12 to 14

Melbourne Cup/ Oaks / Darley Sprint Classic / Mackinnon Stakes

With hot favourites running true to form, most Groupies scored points this week during the Flemington Racing Carnival.

And what an enjoyable carnival it was with sterling performances from racing stars such as Verry Elleegant in the Melbourne Cup, and Nature Strip and Zaaki on Stakes Day.

Congratulations to Loges2 who was the sole Groupie to tip Verry Elleegant in the Melbourne Cup. For such a quality mare, her odds were astoundingly generous, scoring Loges2 an advantageous 23.5 points. He also scored points, along with most Groupies, for Nature Strip and Zaaki.

RJ1 is also to be congratulated on tipping three winners, the aforementioned Nature Strip and Zaaki, plus Oaks winner Willowy, and Melbourne Cup runner up Incentivise, all of which scored 30.24 points.

The Mighty Quinn still heads the Spring Leaderboard with Ramses now hot on his heels in second place, relegating Jet to third.
