Blue Square Media Derby Tipping Competition
The Blue Square Media Tipping Competition is over for another year but just as Tanya Stevenson thought she might be over the line in front, she was mugged at the death by the Racing Post's Jonathan Hobbs who was helped largely by a 10/1 nap in Morrell Warrior on final night. Thanks to all that took part and a big thank you to John Johnson and Barry Faulkner who organised the competition. Jonathan gets £1000 worth of free bets, Tanya £500 and Phil £200 - all courtesy of Blue Square.
