De Cat went off as the favorite in the 4th and ran 3rd. So whoever scratched out cause of the off the turf is through to the next day.

Bankroll is all but meaningless in this contest. It's all about survival.

Or in this instance staying "afloat" :)

My picks for Saturday are:

Race 4) Scholastic (almost went with Silly me :rolleyes: )
Race 8) Pitched Perfectly (Name rings a bell for some reason..)
Race 9) Smart Enough

Best of luck to everyone still in.

I'm not so sure about that. With the three races each day (and only needing to show in one of them) and extra life-lines added each month, I think there will be more survivors at the end than prizes.

I think it's a kind of a double edged sword. Obviously you want to survive, but it's very tough to get out of a hole there. Just becuase it's usually a parade of chalk and then you find youself reaching at some possible price horses.

Sat plays
Scholastic
It happened again

I'm not happy with the contest organizers, they will not accept/confirm my WarranT avatar.

Maybe they have a "NO DOUCHENOZZLE POLICY."

Admittedly, I've never made it to the end of either of the 2 contests, and once eliminated, have not paid attention. But I do remember seeing a bunch of the leaders getting taken out as the contest goes on. Survival is alot tougher than it may seem.

Using Scholastic, Bunker Hill, and Smart Enough today.

lol! I was waiting for that comment Mike. I'm sure I'll be alive but the brain might be sketchy for a couple of days.
