Great prize! Thanks for doing the contest.

I'm going to assume that "back your picks at the windows" is not a requirement. Also, ignore the horses in parentheses...I missed the "no alt" on first reading.

1. Must Win Soon (Storm Whirl)
2. Countess Scala (Elle Belle)
3. Coin Silver (Nar)
4. Rousing Victory (Lord Robyn)
5. Parade The Flag (Trading Star)
6. Ready Enough (One Goodknight)
7. Simon Pure (Superfly)
8. Asi Siempre (Ozone Bere)
9. Quest Star (Dreadnaught)
10. Lewis Michael (Master of Disaster)
11. Minister’s Bid (Bluegrass Cat)
12. Ziplocked (Speed of Sound)

With 3 exceptions, I am employing the well-known CLITS strategy (Cornelio/Leparoux In Tournaments System).

Good luck to all!

Your Simon Pure cost me a pick three that would have paid $796. I really thought Bedford falls would hang on.
