My goodness, IH, that was quite a tour de force. Closing with back to back cold trifectas was just the cherry on top. I hope that you were able to put some real $$ behind your successful opinions on Saturday.

Congrats, Indian Hemp! You smoked us all! ;)

All I can say is "WOW" Indian Hemp. That could easily be the biggest winning margin when 200 points are scored. The 218 points are the second highest registered since I tracked them in 2016. 231 is the highest I've seen and that goes back to February 2016 when Joly B set the bar. Congrats and nicely
played.
