This rarified air for me but I feel a chill coming on all around.

33 weeks in the books already. Time goes by too fast. At this time there are 3 players still showing a flat profit. The actual leader is still NJ Stinks but the official leader is Don Guido. NJS is one week behind playing our 50% minimum but if he picks up the pace he has a healthy lead. NJ Stinks has an ROI of 78% and a profit of $1295. Don Guido is second with an ROI of 33% and is up $866.
Cal rounds out the winning trio with an ROI of 19% and is $653 to the good. Zippy is 4th down just $52 bucks. Digger, Indian Hemp and Ruffian are next. The hottest player is Digger who has hit the board 5 weeks in a row and has hit the cashiers window at a 45% clip. Cal and Don Guido both have 5 wins. NJS and Digger have 4 each. Indian Hemp has the only $1000 plus profitable day (+1090 on May 21st).

Good to know. Lots of great racing to go with both Saratoga and Delmar and eventually the Breeder's Cup. Should be fun.

Thanks for being our A+++ statistician RQ, great summary. Your bonus check is in the mail.

The fact that my name is even mentioned with the ROI leaders is very unusual for me . . . as the previous years have gone. Maybe I should play the Lottery more, hmmmmmm?!

When you're hot, you're hot Don Guido and in your case, I guessing that you are literally very hot down there in Dallas. I just saw that it was 109 degrees. Pretty hot here in Hot Springs. I think it was 103 one day and looks like it's going to be 100+ everyday for the foreseeable future.

Yes, Cal the heat here with the wind is like walking though a blast furnace. I walk my dog and one other for a disabled lady and try to keep them in the shade and on the grass as much as possible. We live in a 4 story apartment building where we can walk the long halls for exercise and enjoy the A/C. No relief in the near future and it will be 108 tomorrow, 1 degree less than today

Been in Texas for almost 50 years and only the summer of 1980 was worse than what we have now . . . coming from a kid who grew up in upstate NY. Contest wise, 'm bound to cool off . . . cool off . . . cool off

The Saratoga meet is always tough to figure out and a little luck goes a long ways.

I've been to Vegas many times when I'm sure it might have been that hot, but you hardly notice it because you're going in and out of casinos. Maybe the hottest place I've ever been was Phoenix and it was like you said a blast furnace type of thing, but it can actually be a nice place to go in winter. Here in Hot Springs, I think we are on the edge of what you guys are experiencing so a few degrees cooler. Just think, only about 7 or 8 weeks more of this type of weather.
