August 26 - Saratoga Points Picks go here

[JolyB]

As Real Quiet selected, we will be playing the first 12 races of the Saratoga card, including 6 consecutive Grade 1 and then a Grade 2 race. Sounds like horseplayer's heaven to me.

Please have your selections posted on this thread by the EARLY post time of 11:35 AM Eastern time.

Let me repeat because of the extra early first post time. Please have your selections posted on this thread by the EARLY post time of 11:35 AM Eastern time.

Good luck to all and hope that you enjoy a superb day of racing. NBC will be providing network coverage beginning at 4:30 PM. That should allow them to provide coverage of the Sword Dancer (4:49 PM) and the Travers (5:44 PM).

Did I forget to mention that there is an EARLY post time?

I know I saw that too and it happens when your brain takes a nap when your checking your picks and your finger had previously hit the 6 and 7 key at the same time or it was aREEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEELY big field?! Since I just had the winner know harm done for you or me.

OR.....
DON HAS BEEN DIPPIN INTO RUFFIAN'S CATNIP?

[Real Quiet]

Don you were not alone. I think NJ Stinks had too much catnip as well.
