Bigs is furiously mashing the "refresh" button on the DRF pp's page, hoping to get a leg up for opening day...I don't have the heart to tell him they won't draw until Thursday

You know me well....

Phil,

Bob is right. I highly doubt you are doing anything wrong in your handicapping. You're way to smart for that. You're either hot or not. If you are having fun, keep at it, you'll have one of those days where you can't miss and end up crushing them.

Those $2 w/p contests require you to go after double digit winners in all of your non-mandatory races. In the mandatories, Scav is right (wow that was tough to type), you just need to find the winner.

everytime they have you pick an alternate in case of a late scratch... the alternate hits the board and my pick doesn't. I gave up on contests. they always include tracks like Delaware and Thistle

Are you planning on auditioning against Thunderdan for the Running Aces house handicapper spot?
