FO is around the corner- will Elegant Point do a double.  Or will one of the chasers take the title and the lead in the annual race.

Hard to think that just 11 months ago we managed 36 wins at the French Open; up from 13 and 15 in the two years previously, and our FO average over recent years is just 15.6

Hard (impossible?) to see us getting near 36 this season? Or famous last words?!

Given our average is 15.6 and 36 is a real outlier, I am going to set the range for voting for this years FO at something like 10 or less at the low end and 29 or more at the high end. I would imagine we will fall somewhere in that range this year! Anyone feeling last year was the start of something special can go top end and let us know the specific number they choose!

Think youve probably defined the range well JH!

Predicting Brit wins at the FO (2025 excepted) is usually an exercise in managed pessimism and there are a few extra complications this year hmm

Here is the ranking list at halfway through the 4 slams - Brittak, Canda and goldfish have been equal second and then equal third in both slams, with EP, emmsie and TA winning one each, and several players then chasing.

With 55 points (50 for winning, 5 for being spot on) there are 110 points for maxing out in the remaining two slams and literally anyone can still win this!

For now, Brittak, Canda and goldfish lead the way

 DF won the 2025 version and is still in the hunt here, goldfish was 3rd last season and up at the top again. Indy won 2024 and RU in 25 but is finding 2026 a tougher proposition!
