True, he won't bring in boxcars but if he's half ready he is the class of the race. The Hong Kong race he was really unlucky to finish second to Doctor Dino, he really didn't fire in the Cdn Intl so I will excuse him from that race. Gravitas looks improved this yr from last, he will get 7lbs that might make him interesting if Quijano doesn't run his race. But I like the top pick, I always had a little time for him. He's a good quality horse.

What happened to Quijano, I'm at work and I notice he didn't win today...any recaps?

CSC 03-06-2008 09:51 PM

Watched the replay when I got home, a 29-1 longshot filly wins the race. Nice payoff there...

The Bid 03-07-2008 08:42 AM

How does Diabolical pay double digits? He laid over that bunch of garbage

Where ya been Scav?? This has been going on for months...Too bad you missed it.. Been a lot of fun trying to handicap the horses over in Dubai. Have to admit that I sucked at first, but once I got familiar with what was what.. Not doing so bad now. At least last week...:D

Hello All!
 
Obviously I'm a newbie but have been following racing since I was twenty-three in the late 70's. I have really become a born again player since last year's Kentucky Derby. This Summer I opened an internet betting account and now play a race or two every weekend and hope to play even more once I retire in another 2-3 years.

Seems only fair to have a new mini contest for the BIG DAY from Dubai. I'll make my picks early Saturday.

Thanks Brock for running this contest.

Hickory Hill Hoff 03-28-2008 07:00 PM

Blackat Blackitten
Massive Drama
