Chapman came second to Arthur Panaretos on Saturday to move to 538 points for the season, followed by Neil Burrell on 403, while previous leader Lloyd Strike is third on 373.5.
The top seven players along with the top two finishers of the main game in week 11 will play off for a seat at the Tournament of Champions at the conclusion of the main game.
As a result the main game on March 29 will start an hour and a half early at 6.30pm in the hope of starting the nine-player final by 10.30pm.
At present Lisa McGuiness (300), Greg Smith (298), Nickeah Roberts (295.5) and Kristie Ryan (283) round out
the top seven.
Smith is featuring on several leaderboards, including leading at the RSL on Monday nights, and at the Amaroo Hotel on Thursday nights, where he won again last week.
Play resumed at the Golf Club on Sunday with Matthew Brady getting the win, but it was not enough to take the venue lead away from Barry Fernando.
Lloyd Strike holds
the lead at the RSL
on Tuesdays, while
Peter Smith leads at the Railway on Wednesdays.
Graeme Pedon won the APL MP3 Player this week. He qualified to go into the draw by winning the Dubbo Railway event last Wednesday.
Kristy Briggs and Rob Ryan won the mid-week games at the RSL.
All Pedon has to do to claim his MP3 player is present this article to the tournament organiser at any of the Dubbo venues.
This Saturday night there will be a $1000 chip-up add-on game in Forbes with $22 entry.
