Well, for me it's been a tough few days as well, but as of today I am in the black. Went with Rebellion today and lost my you know what! :p
Not far up in the standings but hopefully I will hit a big one on the next few days. Good Luck to both of you in your wagers! :)

cowgirlintexas 07-20-2008 01:06 PM

I've spread my wagers today with Rush with Thunder and Mr. Katz..Hopefully it will be a profitable one especially if the 5 horse comes out on top.

If I would have remembered to put the pick in I wouldn't have lost, but since I forgot I just lost ranking. But I made that up with a win this evening. :)

jwkniska 07-27-2008 08:45 PM

I'm up to +$179 (1285th) 50WP on Bro Lo tomorrow

I'll have to start reminding you.. You have alot on your "mind" so it's understandable:p

I did get a pick already in for tomorrow. Monday's contest is in Race 3, I'm going with Bro Lo, may not be much of a price, but hope he can get the job done. Good Luck.

I went with him in the place and show spot($10 & $20) but the main pick to win for me was Forest Phantom with $40.00. I threw $30.00to place as well on Cost of Freedom. Have a hard time just picking one horse so I usually spread it out a bit. I don't have access to the P.P's so I just read what Ellis Starr says most of the time :rolleyes: Shooting in the dark most of the time.

jwkniska 07-28-2008 05:22 PM

broke even today. Taking Brian the Bold 50WP on Wed.

cowgirlintexas 07-30-2008 07:12 AM

I too liked Brian, but had to put most of my "allowance" on "One on the House"...Not sure if he can go this far, but liked his last work and love Bejarano/Walsh angle.

Good luck kids :)

mclem0822 07-30-2008 05:26 PM

I'm gonna take a shot with Unvarnished for Gary Mandella. I may put a bit on Trulymetsmydaddy as well, I think he could run a nice one here.
Good Luck All!

Wow! If that horse wins that I am betting all your picks from here on out:p
Nakatani may have his # and he just might do it here in about 15 minutes...

Doubt many had that winner! Holy smokes! Blew allot of people out of the water. I'm back to sinking and not treading anymore:rolleyes:

cowgirlintexas 07-30-2008 10:32 PM

Going to try and get back into the black tomorrow and go with $40.00 win on Down and $40.00 to place /$20.00 show on Cry and Catch Me. Really like this filly and hope she is over her ailments. Been off for almost a year so might need one...

Good Luck to all those playing the Del Mar Contest.
