Signature Move looks like a CONTENDA....

I am still alive, i was hoping you would last a little while longer so we can collude in picking different horses towards the end.

if there is a scratch in the race then I am definitely going there, but I am going to stay away as she is first time synethic. I actually doubt King of Scratch is going to run her tomorrow

Don't have to wait till next year, They will do it again when Hollywood opens in April. I went out on Good Man Dan yesterday.

tiggerv 01-04-2008 06:44 PM

Leaning Turn Away right now if she doesn't scratch

swedejxn 01-04-2008 06:51 PM

You might not have to wait even that long. Last year, SA had a 2nd contest when the first one ended fairly early.

I am still in and in 167th place. Time to go study the form for tomorrow!

Scav 01-04-2008 07:08 PM

Only 547 left, only 15% of the starting number.

letswastemoney 01-04-2008 09:02 PM

Hey they aren't showing the selections for tomorrow yet. What gives? Usually you can do it the night before.

rontheman1964 01-05-2008 08:18 AM

Still can't make selection this morning and I gotta get to work. Guess I will be out unless they scrap the picks for today. Was gonna use Turn Away.

Today = SCRAPPED. We should have known since their was no picks, there would be no racing.

My guess is that we are back at it on Thursday of next week :eek: :eek:

tiggerv 01-09-2008 04:07 PM

Selections are up for tomorrow. Lots of big fields. Smallest looks to be an 8 horse field in the 7th.

For sure, I love what I see tomorrow quite honestly. The first days had some 4-5-6 horse fields. People actually will have to look at it or go on a whim....

rontheman1964 01-09-2008 07:57 PM

Tomorrow should be wide open. No 6/5 morning line favorites to play. Could see alot of people eliminated. I like 2 different races. I hope I pick the right one to play.

letswastemoney 01-10-2008 12:49 AM

I'm going with Down. Down down down down, down down down down....

Any blink-182 fans here?

No? just me.....alright then....

rontheman1964 01-10-2008 06:13 PM

Dang, I'm out....switched off of Forest Danz and used Kula Girl. She was leading and then bled.

Scav 01-10-2008 06:15 PM

i'm a f'n idiot. I orginially had Igraine and switched to that rat Watch over me......****

Scav 01-10-2008 06:45 PM

Like only 270 left...****..pissed right now

letswastemoney 01-10-2008 06:54 PM

Wait so....who's left besides me?? Did I win this Derby Trail contest? :) :)

letswastemoney 01-10-2008 07:02 PM

I have cracked the top 100. I am 86th!!!!

But man tomorrow's card...I haven't looked at PPs but one of only a handful of horses I recognize is Intangaroo...and that's because she knocked me out of the Hollywood show contest lol.

I'm nervous. Hopefully I won't have to use her. If I get through tomorrow...The weekend cards look easy...especially with Turn Away...and on Monday there's Wait a While...

Duvalier 01-10-2008 07:11 PM

I'm out...good luck letswastemoney and whoever else is left from DT the rest of the way.

letswastemoney 01-10-2008 10:39 PM

I've decided. I'm using Sir Lowry in the 7th. He has never been off the board. Frankel's horses have worked for me. I don't like the size of the field, but all the races look pretty full.

Good luck. We need a few to stay in the contest to keep this thread fresh. I'm still in -- ranked #131. If we can get through Friday, the weekend should be easier. After Monday, who knows what Santa Anita will decide to do with their racing schedule.

swedejxn 01-11-2008 08:21 AM

im still hanging in there as well as my significant other.... she usually does better than me at those things... I handicap the heck out of a race... give her the top 2,3, or 4 she asks who the jockeys and trainers are.... and I am ALWAYS out before she is.... go figure????? at least she doesn't go by color... She won a big college bowl pool a few years back... $20 entry and 1200 pay out.... by going with the college nick-names... almost caused me to give up gambling...
