Hey DC here the Tesio pp's, thanks again for all your work in the contest

http://www.brisnet.com/bris_link/pdfs/vinery_72206.pdf

Thank you!

It's been fun doing the contest, I hope everyone has enjoyed it as much as I have. This has been a great competition and I can't wait to see who wins it, I think it's still too close to call - tI think the "Derby-Winner-Bonus" could decide the winner of the contest :eek:

I'm working on the rules for a Triple Crown contest that will overlap this contest (we'll play the Derby, Belmont and Preakness - I'm thinking probably $2 WPS pick along with a bonus three horse exacta box for each race).

I'm still working on the prizes for this contest (Top 3)... I think the winner will like what they get to go along with the "bragging rights" :D

Way to go Buffy, nice pick this could move you to top of the standings. :D :)

Slew's Tizzy at 40/1 a shocker indeed :eek: :eek:

You go GIRL

Going..Going...Gone.

Freakin A!! So much with keeping up with Buffy this contest! Good hit,Kiddo!

Make some room on that leaderboard, Miz Buffy's coming!!!!

I actually JUST got home from the barn and saw the replay. I have liked this horse for awhile. About three or four months ago I said he was going to improve and show himself a superstar!

Now is the Derby asking too much? maybe. I admit. But wouldn't that derby bonus be wonderful?


Cajun, my Tiznow baby ran well today. Maybe both of our Tiznows will make it to the derby.

Wow! This was not a “Chalky” day :eek: Most of us got skunked today but Buffymommy made a killing! By picking Slew’s Tizzy in the Coolmore Lexington Stakes, she catapulted herself from 19th place to 4th with a $126.20 payout! :cool: Good picking by Alydar, he got the winner at Fredrico Tesio. The only other player ITM was the astute handicapper, Carrot. The Top 3 remains the same…

Today's *Good Sport* Award goes to Timmgirvan - an honest man that points out when I make a mistake and credit him for a nice payout - Thank you for your honesty Sir - You just got some Karma Bonus Points!

One more week of contest races to go before the Derby -- today proved this is anyone’s contest to win. :p

I finally made a move!!!! :) But I am afraid it may be too late of a move, but won't everyone like me in my next race? :D

Thanks for humoring me DC with Carrot's pics. He enjoys it.

I had fun with this contest. I think Sauc and I will be rooting full heartedly for our "LONGSHOTS" to win the derby. Thank you for running the contest.

Looks like the Derby Trial may be the only prep left for next week?

We're going to play two races next week (I hate for this to end :( ) - going with the Withers at Aqueduct and the Derby Trial at Churchill Downs. The Kentucky Derby will be the final race of this contest.

I'll also post a Triple Crown contest - it will be a $2 WPS and $1 three horse exacta box bet for the three races - anyone interested in playing a contest like that? Do you want to add or change anything to it?

ALAS, fair DerbyCat, I must confess I didn't have the pick for which I'm credited!! The leaders are safe...this time!:(

Thank you for your honesty, if Karma is real you'll move up in the standings next week :)

I feel for GenuineRisk right now, picked Slew's Tizzy as the alt. pick - flip that around and we've got a new leader in the contest :eek:

AAWWW Shucks,DC..'twern't nothin:)

I sincerely hope you're originally from the South... I've never heard someone from San Dimas talk like that ;)

I read a lot!:)

If I had put my picks in BEFORE she did, she would have seen that I still liked this horse. She and I have talked about him before. I credit her for using him as her alt. Honestly, I won't use him in the Derby, but I LOVED him back on poly.

Nah, your just an honest gentleman Timm! Admit it.

DC,

By the way, I think you gave me an extra $3.00. I think Slew's Tizzy paid: 83.00; 29.60; and 13.60. I think my total would be 126.20.

Buffy....
 

Congrats on some great selections.
