My kind of contest, at least one 8-5 ml every race and half the races under six entries. Could last longer than than the congress debical.

Me personally, the contest will go forever, until the last thirty or so alive decide to split it up

On to day two

6th #1 or 3rd #1, what can i say i'm a gambler

Assuming most of them signed up and forgot to play. Would be nice if the website would send out a daily text reminder. I almost forgot myself, had to punch it in on my phone at work.

All the 123 contests send out email alerts but the showvivor contests do not..except for the first notice...on my desk is a notepad with the GG start date the Breeders at Pocono on 10/19 and equibase contest on 11/2....i'd be gone first day if i left it to memory

For some reason I got multi messages from Portland Meadows, 1 from GG and I think 1 from SA, but PM was the one pushing it. Guess we know who's running promotions north of LA

I like how they show the favorite horses:

I'm limited to using whatever free Bris races are on here:

French Alps in R3 is my pick for Friday.

look at the scoring my winner was worth 5.00 but there are a bunch of people @ 233.00..........i went through the rules as thin as they are and see no difference whether your horse pays 2.10 or 2,000.00

So WTF is going on here. Stronach's people run a nice SA contest, they cannot share..................Frank please buy Fort Erie, you,ve want to %^&&$#$ Woodbine for years.......it's you're last chance

Buy FE for a song and make it the hub track for SA GP GG etc in canada and stick it to Woodbine, which makes auto profit and product for your HRTV monday and tuesday

Has to be a glitch of some sort. The money doesn't really matter anyways. The tie breaker comes down to how many WINS you have. Then PLACES.
