Hey Paul,
Can we distribute the $120 on the entire Belmont card or only on the Belmont Stakes?
There are lots of very good races on the card. Actually, it's a spectacular day of racing.
You're the one running this contest, but I think there will be some great choices on the under card.

[Exceller]

$120 to win on High Finance.

[kentuckyrosesinmay]

Don't know how much money I will be betting yet or the exact order. I'll have to wait until tomorrow to see how much money I have left after I blow it all on all of the other races! LOL! Plus, I always wait for the post parade to make final decisions...

8, 9, and 4 are my main horses

I'll also use 3, 2, 7, and 11 with them somehow.

I know I said I didn't like the 4 and 8 in this race, but I've changed my mind;)

[Buffymommy]

This is a friggen hard race to handicap!

$20 WPS BobandJohn

$20 WPS Sunriver


OK, looking at the pp, I like Sunriver here. My heart wants B&J so I split my bet with the two. :o

[kentuckyrosesinmay]

[timmgirvan]

Scavs: that's what's called a Dose of Humility!!!...stumbling out of the gate,lol

[Bigsmc]

Had him on top of Sunriver. Can't really take any credit though, I was keying Sun River and just reveresed the ex.

Bigs

[TheSpyder]

Man o man...Touted Jazil in the Derby and did not even play him. I could kick myself. Thise prices were terrific. What was I thinking??

[Scav]

Just realized I was the closest, had the exacta backwards, should have boxed it....Would have had a COMMANDING lead

[Exceller]

Glad nobody had it. I had $60 on the Songster/Too Much Bling exacta in the other race in the competition. Looks like I have the lead after week one.

Got lucky. Noonmark came in third. Had a $40WPS bet on him. I am not that far in hole with Sunriver coming in third too with $20WPS on him. It was a "Show" day for me. Not to far on the negative side of things. At least I won't be -240. :)


Guys, please next week, IF I say a horse scares me, make sure I bet on that horse. :) Stupid me bets with my heart....
