Don Guido, as always you have done a superb job in your analysis of capping the cappers.
 Alas, you nailed me dead on - I've always had a tendency to overprepare. It has held me in good stead for things like bar exams, transactional closings and as a seminar panelist, but has been the kiss of death in my capping of the BC. By now, I think I could give you a reason why each of the entrants in the Classic could win, and another reason why each of them could likely get beaten. That doesn't help the decision making process very much.I'll be glad to compute the actual odds and will pays after all the entries have been submitted (which I assume will be not later than post time for the first BC race on Friday). It has always amazed me just how differently our players predict the Cup winner from the qualifying point standings.

Yes JB, I'm just the opposite but we have worked professionally in two different worlds. I have to force myself to be more analytical and detailed . . . not easy for a free wheeling architect at heart but I have learned over the years. Handicapping, picking winners, exactas, trifectas is by far the most challenging experience my artistic brain has endured. And as a relative newcomer in all this for around 17/18 years, I'm thinking it does keep the electrical impulses of my brain well connected even though my thought process is often out of wack.
  Back to business to all: Please have all your cap the cappers wagers in before the first race on Friday, 3:21 eastern. Thank you!!!

My first inclination was to place $50 win on NJ Stinks and Indian Hemp cause I think they have a good handle on the Euro's. But they don't play points all that often. I'm hoping the Breeders Cup brings them both out but at the risk of being "Scratched" out of the Cappers Contest I'll go with
$50 Win on Plenilune $25 Win on NJ Stinks $25 Win on Indiana Hemp

$25 Win Real Quiet - Won this last year I think and seems Real Likely to win again, plus he did Real Well in the Saratoga Contest so I know he is for Real.
$25 Win JolyB-Very consistent. I think the term for horses that are always in the money is "honest." I think this applies to JolyB. $25 Win Cruzan-Longshot picker can pick 'em with regularity. $25 Win Roamin-Love the fact that he always goes "all in." If he hits, it's going to be a ginormous win.
