Today = SCRAPPED. We should have known since their was no picks, there would be no racing.

My guess is that we are back at it on Thursday of next week :eek: :eek:

Selections are up for tomorrow. Lots of big fields. Smallest looks to be an 8 horse field in the 7th.

For sure, I love what I see tomorrow quite honestly. The first days had some 4-5-6 horse fields. People actually will have to look at it or go on a whim....

rontheman1964 01-09-2008 07:57 PM

Tomorrow should be wide open. No 6/5 morning line favorites to play. Could see alot of people eliminated. I like 2 different races. I hope I pick the right one to play.

letswastemoney 01-10-2008 12:49 AM

I'm going with Down. Down down down down, down down down down....

Any blink-182 fans here?

No? just me.....alright then....

I am out too. Used the same horse.

rontheman1964 01-10-2008 06:13 PM

Dang, I'm out....switched off of Forest Danz and used Kula Girl. She was leading and then bled.

Scav 01-10-2008 06:15 PM

i'm a f'n idiot. I orginially had Igraine and switched to that rat Watch over me......****

Scav 01-10-2008 06:45 PM

Like only 270 left...****..pissed right now

letswastemoney 01-10-2008 06:54 PM

Wait so....who's left besides me?? Did I win this Derby Trail contest? :) :)

letswastemoney 01-10-2008 07:02 PM

I have cracked the top 100. I am 86th!!!!

But man tomorrow's card...I haven't looked at PPs but one of only a handful of horses I recognize is Intangaroo...and that's because she knocked me out of the Hollywood show contest lol.

I'm nervous. Hopefully I won't have to use her. If I get through tomorrow...The weekend cards look easy...especially with Turn Away...and on Monday there's Wait a While...

Duvalier 01-10-2008 07:11 PM

I'm out...good luck letswastemoney and whoever else is left from DT the rest of the way.

letswastemoney 01-10-2008 10:39 PM

I've decided. I'm using Sir Lowry in the 7th. He has never been off the board. Frankel's horses have worked for me. I don't like the size of the field, but all the races look pretty full.

Good luck. We need a few to stay in the contest to keep this thread fresh. I'm still in -- ranked #131. If we can get through Friday, the weekend should be easier. After Monday, who knows what Santa Anita will decide to do with their racing schedule.

im still hanging in there as well as my significant other.... she usually does better than me at those things... I handicap the heck out of a race... give her the top 2,3, or 4 she asks who the jockeys and trainers are.... and I am ALWAYS out before she is.... go figure????? at least she doesn't go by color... She won a big college bowl pool a few years back... $20 entry and 1200 pay out.... by going with the college nick-names... almost caused me to give up gambling...
