What happened? What were the results? Anyone know? Did they cancel racing today?

I was....
 

Wondering myself Buffy, I haven't heard a thing!

Turf Paradise canceled.....
 

Just found out, no racing at Turf Paradise today. Anyone heard when the Rattle Snake will run? What does this do to the contest? What's the 411 folks?

Probably just won't count this race. I am sure Derby Cat will let us know though.

Ok folks... I'm going to see if they are going to run this race later... If they don't have a date set by this Friday, I'm going to give everyone that made a pick for today a $2 refund credit... that benefits all the folks that play this contest regularly and seems kind of fair... any thoughts?

Also, I'll have next weeks races posted on Thursday morning (west coast time)... will post PP's as soon as I can. Also, anyone that needs PP's when I can't find free ones, just let me know I'll send you the Bris PP's since I get them free (obviously I bet way too much online).

Thanks for playing everyone!

Thanks DerbyCat.....
 

For giving us the update. I'll take those Bris PP'S, appreciate the offer.

Rattlesnake Stakes on Friday 1/27
 

They are running the Rattlesnake Stakes today... FYI

are you counting it?

...did they redraw or are the runners/posts the same?

My gut is telling me a different horse, but I am sticking with ourtickettohome.

Gut is saying Derouin... BUT I am sticking with my original picks IF you are counting this race Derbycat.

Well, I just noticed they did re-draw post positions so I'm not sure it's fair to count this race since people haven't had a chance to re-evaluate their picks... any feedback?

My thinking right now is to say that everyone who made picks gets a $2 credit to their contest account.

I'd vote that anyone whose pick hits the board should get money for it and anyone who made a pick but their pick either didn't enter this time or doesn't wind up hitting the board gets credited $2.

It's yours to call, but I don't see a redraw as bad as a late scratch.

You are the boss Derby. Whatever you decide is fine with me.

This sounds very reasonable to me... it encourages those who make picks every time as well as those that may feel they were "cheated" by the post re-draw, yet still rewards the people who were able to pick the best horse.

I'm going with this idea... good call Sniper!

Now I better go check the entries and hope my pick is still in.

So if....
 

We made a pick, (Mr. Charlypotatoes in my case) he's got to hit the board at least for this to count, or it's a $2 refund?

Anyone who hits the board gets the payoff... all others that put in a pick gets $2.

Guess, I'll settle.....
 

For 2nd, Mr. Charlypotatoes closed well, but Tie Rod just got to far ahead.
Congrats if anyone had Tie Rod.

beginning to re-rally:p
EDIT...damn I just saw what he paid...wish i had bet the race...ex was $197:(

Excellent choice by Paisjpq and eurobounce! Paisjpq has now shot to the lead although if eurobounce keeps picking them this way (2 for 2), he may take the lead at the turn and never look back! Can you say Secretariat by 31 leangths?!

Nice job everyone... good luck this weekend!
