Want me to post replays?

thatd be cool thanks..

No problem. I think there are quite a few people on here that don't get to view them, and they are easy to get on the ATR website. So it's worth putting them here.

STANDINGS AFTER DAY 2:

It was a difficult day for us bar fmc as a lot of managed to find good priced placed horses rather than the winners. Some of us were particularly affected by the (albeit, just) DQ of Mariol in the 2nd race. Hopefully we'll do better next week.

I guess I was wrong! :D

We all were.

Last week I had a bunch of 2nd place finishers... maybe this week they'll all come in 4th. :D

I got some longshots last week....this week I won't be that lucky again!:)

I told that I don't trust L'Amico Steve....until now...i was wrong everytime...:D ...let's see today....the brazilian seabiscuit....lol

Oh dear... just back on and saw results.....

Hmmmm, I have been dreaful again. I guess I should just give up, huh?

Surprised with L'amico Steve, did anyone catch the race? Was he unlucky at all or just not good enough?

It's been all downhill since the first Thursday two weeks ago....................

I will also love a victory of Eu Também!! I didn't put him on my selections due to the long layoff.

I too passed on Eu Tambem due to the lengthy layoff, but liked him besides that. Watch him win and pay $50.00 :p
