Santa Anita showvivor March 2nd

[Dunbar]

PLAYERS STILL IN: 129
PLAYERS OUT: 6442
TOTAL PLAYERS: 6571

I've already changed my pick twice for tomorrow. Surprisingly hard to find a solid choice considering there are 4 races with 6 entries.

Right now I'm on Tiz Liberty in the 3rd, but that could easily change if there's a scratch down to 5 anywhere.

Meanwhile, I haven't quite cracked the meaningless Top 100 list. Sitting at #102 now.

Good luck, IK.

He is out of town and asked that I put his pick in for him for tomorrow.

He is going with #2 Salty Sarah in the 1st race.


Best of luck you two!

There are scratches in the 1st, 4th and 5th that caused me to take another look at those races.

I switched to Halfapondarosa in the 1st. I can't ignore the "sign" that I was humming the theme to Bonanza yesterday! That, and the 7 lbs taken off by the switch to E. Flores.

By picking a different horse in the same race as IK, I make it slightly less likely that both of us will advance, and slightly more likely that at least one of us will.

Nice call Dunbar... Keep it going for us!

Talamo stopped riding the horse 50 yards out, (after trying hard to get something in the stretch). The horse was empty. I continue to be the only horseplayer in the world who cannot succeed with Baffert!

Keep it going Dunbar

Many thanks, Arletta

Cheers, IK

And your horse only missed 3rd by a nose, IK! Very nice effort in the contest. We hardly ever had the same pick, but each found our own way to the final 129. In fact, the 4 of us had very little pick overlap.

I think there will only be about 50 players left after today. 3 of the top 4 choices missed.

Baffert has knocked me out of most of them too... You'd think we'd learn

Congrats, Dunbar! Awesome job.

IK...

You lasted so much longer than most people did...

You did a fantastic and very impressive job. I applaud you, Sir.
