I can't speak for Arletta but i for one shall be stalking the two of you on Wednesday so you guys don't forget to make picks for Thursday.

Thrilled you're both still in!

Congrats, gentlemen. :tro:

Arletta 03-18-2012 07:49 PM

I will be too! :)

It would be great to have either of you win this contest.

Dunbar 03-19-2012 11:35 AM

Thanks, ladies.

mmsc, I'll probably need that wakeup call, too! I'd better put it in my phone alarm.

Bump #1 :p

For Thursday:

Race 1, #4 Pure Storm

Dunbar 03-21-2012 09:51 PM

One of the tougher days for me, and I probably won't be around to take advantage of any scratches tomorrow morning. Came down to Race 1 or Race 6, and there were a couple of horses in each of those that were tempting.

Going with Memo To Kathy in Race 1. Nope, just talked myself out of it. Going with Sahara Sky in Race 6.

Going to bed.

Aw shucks, thanks, ladies! :)


54 players knocked out today:

PLAYERS STILL IN: 140
PLAYERS OUT: 6431
TOTAL PLAYERS: 6571


Our contest equity has risen to over $35 each. ($5000/140=$35.70)

IK and I have shown that we clearly belong in the top 2% of people able to find $2.10 winners. ;>)


I making up for the too-much-time I spent last night with a 30-sec pick for tomorrow. I suspect I'll have at least 75% of the players as company:

Race 2: Mamma Kimbo

Friday

Race 2, #3 Sister Moon

Let's keep it going Dunbar!

Thanks for the support ladies.

Dunbar 03-23-2012 06:31 AM

Thanks for the heads up, mmsc. I'll most likely take IK's horse in the 4-horse 2nd, despite the long layoff. If there's a scratch in the 4th, I might switch to Holy Candy.

They both won! :cool:

Keep it going you two!!! :)

Arletta 03-23-2012 06:09 PM

Fine work you two :tro:

Dunbar 03-23-2012 07:15 PM

Thanks! Wish you two were still in it with us.

I think only 2 players dropped out today. The picks will probably be spread out a little more tomorrow.

As of now I'm looking at Jack O Lyn in the 1st.

--Dunbar

(I actually stayed with Sister Moon today because I didn't see the scratch in the 4th. Either it was a late scratch or I somehow misread it!)
