2009 Official Saratoga Meet Contest Thread

With a few days until the meet I hope everyone is ready for the Saratoga Contest. Since the PP's are up for opening day, I figure we'd get this started. We have a bunch of prizes and this has to be the toughest and most fun contest around. Winners are based on the highest ROI. I will post results at least once a week, if not more. Lots of paperwork keeping up so be patient.

Rules:
1. Post all bets on this thread. Everyone gets 36 $20 win bets over the Saratoga meet. Since the meet is 36 days, this is an average of one bet per day, BUT YOU CAN BET WHEN YOU WANT, ANY DAY, ANY RACE.

2. You must post the race number, the horse number, and the horse name. I had many times last year when this was not done properly (alot of wrong race #) and if I correct it fine, but if not, it's a lose, just like getting a ticket wrong.

3. If you post any bet made, if not for the day it is posted, put the date of the race.

4. Scratched horses are no bet.

5. MAKE SURE YOU ALSO KEEP TRACK OF YOUR BETS. I will make mistakes and the last thing I am going to do is go through 200 posts if you think something is wrong. If you see an error, PM me with your bets and posts so we can sort it out.

6. In reporting ROI, everyone starts -$720 (36x20). So it advisable to use all your best. Otherwise, any bet not used will be a $20 loss.

7. Don't give up! If you can bag 6-7 good price winners, you may be in the hunt and last year it came down to the last week with some final moves.

8. If you have not signed up, just place a bet. Anyone can join, up the half way mark in the meet.

Good Luck and Hope you enjoy the SPAAAAAAAAAAA Contest!

spyder - there is always one stupid question but if i like 1 horse in an entry and i put that name down do i get the other half as well?

Yes, but if you like one of the horses, put that name down. If that horse scratches, it will be no bet.
