Hey! don't blame me! I didn't pick the dink.


Sucks being in a part of the Losers Club doesn't it?




Better luck next time :p

Bite me.

Uhm, bet you don't have one of these:



Clyde Van Dusen (1885 - January 8, 1951) was an American jockey and trainer of Thoroughbred racehorses best known for winning the 1929 Kentucky Derby.

Following a career as a jockey, Van Dusen turned to training. Handling the racing stable of Amsterdam, New York businessman, Herbert P. Gardner, in 1929 Clyde Van Dusen became the only trainer to ever win the Kentucky Derby with a horse named in their honor. The gelding, Clyde Van Dusen, was the first son of Man o' War.






HA-HA!

Also in the losers club.....oh well.

You have to go back 18 races and 2 years to find a race that Amazombie did NOT finish in the top 3. And he only needs to beat 4 horses in today's 8th.

Nevertheless, I'm taking a shot with South Floyd in the 4th, trying to take advantage of the post-draw scratch down to 5 horses. Normally, 5-horse races are excluded from this contest. 3 of the 5 horses have only run on synthetic. If South Floyd's BSF is solid, I should be okay. I also like that he's coming back in just 2 weeks off his maiden win, while Amazombie hasn't run in over 2 months.

I'm more or less thinking out loud here because 50% of my brain is still shouting, "Take Amazombie you idiot!!"

60% of a whole brain when adding both halves.



No wonder.

Huh? Freddy's playing?

That's an oxy.



And I was typing to Mr. DumbBar.

Go away.

Good call db...Had a similar situation bought 5 years ago in a YB contest..
I went with a horse that ALWAYS htb instead of another horse...the other horse htb and mine didn't...cost me the contest and 300 bucks...:mad:

Thanks. It was a massacre today, as 903 out of the remaining 963 players were knocked out today. Just 60 of us left. 6 players are 5-0-0. I'm 4-1-0.

Very well played Dunbar and best of luck the rest of the way :)

Funny, I thought he was talking about Arletta.

Weird...

You need to seek Therapy for this sick obsession you seem to have with me.

It's really creeping me out and you need to back off.

Back off? From what?

I hardly ever respond to you, unless you go out of your way to try and make someone look dumb. It's always so funny when that backfires.

This was just too easy (and true) so I had to say something. Have a nice day and thanks for the advice!

Amazing number this early...gl rest of the way...

Thanks--going to need plenty of luck to just get through today! Too bad the 4-horse 3rd race is off limits!

I'm going with Almost A Lady in the 6th, even though I hate the drop down in class level after a good performance. There are things I hate more for all the other favs.

Oh it's way beyond weird.


In fact,it suggests reading skills not seen prior to the invention of eye glasses.

You're not allowed to operate a motor vehicle....are ya?

Uh, your first post here proves you require no assistance to appear doorknobish so that's something.

good job!

Awww....sticking up for his pen pal.

So cute.

I just noticed that they added back 46 more players! There must have been some confusion about a scratch yesterday. At any rate, there were 106 left as of the start today, not 60. 857 were eliminated yesterday, not 903.

PLAYERS STILL IN: 106
PLAYERS OUT: 7104
