How funny.. I was 10th outta 26($22.00). We three we 8th, 9th & 10..Hard to believe only 26 people are playing on average daily. Course it double on the weekends..

My picks for tomorrow are:
Even Tempo
Preemptive Strike
Hyrule

No big payers, but they looked the best.

(Wonder how "rgusta" & "Pete" are faring in the contest.)

Cowgirl, I got blanked yesterday but still cling to a place on the leader board. With regards to your thought that only 26 people are playing, you are misstaken. Keeneland groups everyone that had the same score in one placing so you could have had fifty other people joining you in 10th place. Good luck today.

Glad to hear that your still on the board. Now that you mentioned the way they do the standing.. I clearly see it now at the bottom :rolleyes:

Had one winner and a second today, but only moved me up to 542. Need to pick a juicy longshot, but seems like it's been pretty chaulky for the most part. wwith rain in the forcast this weekend, perhaps there will be a few decent payoffs here and there.

Yeah, Rid em Cowgirl was an auto hunch play for you:p ! I nearly picked that one myself, wish I had! Anyway, thanks for the kind wishes, my 1 win today moved the bankroll up to $180, but the ranking stayed the same 280. Making the top 100 would be nice, I'll have to hussle these last days to do so. Good Luck with your picks rest of the way.:)
