A few points to make:
1. I name the horse for one reason - it makes it easy for fellow players to know if my bet is a winner or not. (I only listed the horse's name if that bet required a particular horse to do something to win the bet.) I look at other players' picks and except for a couple other players, I have to check numbers instead of knowing immediately if the horse won or not. I don't care one way or the other about it so no more horse names will be listed by me. 2. I actually bet the #4 in the second race yesterday. I didn't cash! 3. A shame the #4 won the 4th race yesterday.

NJ Stinks point #3....it couldn't happen any other way. I don't mind horses names. Most of the time I can see NJS's picks and pick out the Euro's. When I look at the results I can sometimes tell if Ruffian hit a bomb. Bottom line is we have a rule to go by numbers and not names. It has to be one or the other if you list both. My biggest payout for real was a Sunday at PARX when I punched a ticket with the wrong numbers. Did I cash it even though it was not what I wanted? You betcha!

OK .......You "Baited" me into this discussion......so here I am
 Here is my reasoning for using HORSE NAMES We only play for fun ~ not for real money $$$ We are NOT A TRACK ~ We are an online contest By including the Horse Names A player gets the horse they real Wanted!  Plus, I enjoy seeing the names of the horses other people play Just because something has been done a certain way for a while... It isn't written in stone that NEW ideas cannot be considered  Flexibility, Open Mindedness & Change can Often be refreshing

Other than that, do you propose after years and years and years we change the rules, let me know in a PM and how you would propose it and we'll put to a vote. We have changed them before but by consensus for sure. No being a dictator, just wanting to know where you are going with this. Thank you. Check My typos too, I have to get back to the NCCA tournament, and Clemson's dominating win over those other Tigers.
