Thanks Saucon... I was going to get to it tonight, but after my vacation last week I'm putting in long hours at work and still playing catch up.




OK, I'm kicking myself... I looked at how I did last week and my #1 picks at Turfway all finished out of the $$$ - but my alt. picks were all in the $$$ - I flip those and I'm up an additional $45 - ouch!

Note to self- spend more than 2 minutes to handicap, even when on vacation...

DC, if you don't switch your picks for the Fla Derby, you're going to do exactly what you did last week! :p

Well, this is actually my switch :eek:

I like Our Sacred Honor and Stormello best, so I switched them with my original alt picks - how stupid is my logic? :o

Only time will tell!! haha

We've played 38 races to date and Miraja2 hold a slim lead over Paisjpq - she's closing in on you Big Guy! :eek: :D Nice picks today by Thunder Gulch and Timmgirvan - they were the only players to be ITM for both races today - Well Done! :D

Big races next week... on Saturday we'll be playing the Wood Memorial, the Santa Anita Derby, the Illinois Derby and MAYBE might also toss in the Bay Shore @ Aqueduct, the Lafayette Stakes @ Keeneland and on Sunday the San Pedro Stakes @ Santa Anita - let me know if you have an opinion on the last three races, if they don't interest enough people we'll stick to the big three on Saturday.

No I don't think we should play any of those races. In fact, let's not play anymore races at all. Let's just end the contest now and use the current results as the final standings.:D Anyone else like that idea?
Just kidding, I wouldn't mind adding.....maybe one of those races, but I would vote for not doing 5 or 6 races in a week. I guess I would say let's go with the Big 3 and whichever of the other races comes up looking the best.

Thanks Saucon....now if I could just hit a nice trifecta.......:D
