Colonial Downs contest
 

Starts June 19th. through July 17th.

First prize will be a trip to Vegas and an entry into the Horseplayer's World Series next January, with cash prizes for the next several places.

Pretty simple. You play 4 races per day - in the first, you make a WPS selection; in the second you create a three horse exacta box; in the third you create a 4 horse trifecta box and in the last you create a 5 horse superfecta box.

Highest bankroll at the end wins.

Best of luck to anyone that enters :)

67th, but waaaaay behind.

I like this contest, though. You can make up cash in a hurry, and you can't be eliminated!

Cal, you must be right up there with the leaders.

I didn't really play. I don't have a brisnet or racing form account, so no past performances except for the free ones. Might have to remedy that. Actually played the dime super in race 7 and hit it, but sadly, so did everyone else!!:(

I was'nt able to play today,so I am down to 175th :(

Had to play before the scratches where up, took a big ZERO on the day.

Tomorrow is another day, but commitments will prevent me from adjusting for scratches again. Guess that's the breaks.

Well Chris..at least know you are not alone, as we both seem to be struggling a bit with this one.

Didn't forget, but we'll see if I picked 'em very well.

Good luck today, Laura.

With the leaders at over 61,000, I have accepted the fact that I can't win this thing. Scratches kill you if you have to post in the a.m.
Nick Tamm is just ahead of me, but my new goal is to beat Howard Hong. People who get paid to handicap should not be allowed to enter. :rolleyes:
