I think a lot of people sitting from like 12th-to-75th will now start to take a lot of chances....a few of them will be rewarded and shoot way up in the standings, but a good deal of them will probably miss, and take themselves out of it.
Anyone who isn't in the top 20 at the end of March will probably be too far back to win.

Yeah, congrats on first but I must admit I'm a bit surprised there aren't people with a lot more points too. I'm sitting in 76th in the public league despite losing all those points on March 3rd where I only set my lineup in one of the three leagues. In that one I'm right at 1,000 which would put me in 5th in the public and I've made my share of mistakes (besides the obvious devestating one). I'm kind of torn at this point between taking risks on the extremely slim chance I can make a move or just playing it straight and seeing how many points I can get in my thoroughbrednet group so I can really kick myself in the end. There are so many races in March that I can probably play it straight and still have different horses from a lot of the people ahead of me. But if I get the chance to pick against an expected chalk horse I don't particularly like I will probably do so. I think you can be lower than 20th in March and still crack the money but it will be extremely difficult to win unless you catch an unlikely Derby/Preakness winner.
