Saratoga Meet Contest

i'd suggest capping the payoff on any one bet.

everyone will be stabbing at longshots all meet long regardless. but at least they'd think 2x about a 35-1 shot if they know they only get 20-1 in the contest. plus it eliminates jackasses like me that would be betting 70-1 shots the entire last week trying to catch up.

I don't like the capping idea. You only get 36 stabs for the entire meet, if you get a bomb home, you should be rewarded. just my take, and i do cap my letters sometimes.

i'm willing to compromise.

$1 at full track odds and the other $9 capped at 20-1.

that's how a real contest is run.
