1/12 DT 'Beat the Host' Simo-Contest!

[Kasept]

Jeff Siegel is the host for Xpressbet 'Beat the Host' (http://www.xpressbet.com/BeattheHost?utm_source=website&utm_medium=banner&utm_campaign=beatthehost) this week and everyone had fun last week so I thought we'd go again!

How it works:

•Mythical $2 Win wager on one horse in each of the eight mandatory contest races.
•Your goal is to exceed Jeff's cumulative mutuel total.
•Entries close at post time of first race (Est. 3:05pm ET).
•Will adjust for early SCR's, but late SCR of my selection results in a 'null' event.
•Special prizes for Top 3 finishers; Prizes for all that 'Beat the Host'.

Thanks, PCL! Tied for 7th, get the feeling that bomb cost me a shot a one of the top prizes.

[Port Conway Lane]

Very nice job! I don't think anyone had the bomb though, the $5 win would've paid over $200.

[pointman]

Very nice job! I don't think anyone had the bomb though, the $5 win would've paid over $200.

Thanks, but Siegal did most of the work for me, I got ahead of him early and ran his picks down the line to ensure I would qualify for the championship. He did a very nice job today.

I believe for the contest purposes winners are capped at 20-1. I'm pretty sure a few people jumped ahead of me on that, but I am just happy to qualify for the championship.

Smart strategy. See you in the final round. I just wish the prizes were close to what they have always been in the past.

Thanks, Paul! Saw you post that strategy last week which made perfect sense. I'm happy I qualified and can go for the weekly's here out. Good Luck!

Just catching up.. Another fun 'BTH' and obviously a big hit here!

Siegel got Jack Milton, Midnight Transfer, Calistoga and Bossy Pants home for $33.80.

Northeastbound ($94.40) gets by with the home run from Mucha Mas Macho and romps on DT, but Cassie ($42.40) topped Siegel as well which was good for 2nd here. Knicks ($32.80) was 3rd...

And great work by Nick playing at XB and hitting the Top 10!

Thanks all for playing again! Jon White up next Saturday...

[cassie]

n big thing but cassie 42.40
