You're right--I had it wrong. rodrodman had a lock on it as long as he kept his streak alive on the last pick.

The winner is one of the two who had six wins, as that is the first tiebreak. The second tiebreak is most shows, and that info is not publicly posted so there is no way of knowing who won.
Yeah, and that seems weird.

The next showvivor should start on the next Santa Anita opening day, 12/26. I'll be at the track for opening day and I already can't wait for the next round!
Hope I remember.

I decided once again to break down the odds-on favorites by field size, a total of 35 horses were odds-on favorites, and 28 of them finished in the money, for a success rate of only 80%. Here is the breakdown by field size:

field size ITM% #of applicable horses
13 0 1
12 100 3
10 100 2
9 75 4
8 100 6
7 83.3 6
6 71.4 7
5 66.7 6
Good stuff! Can you put this together with the last one you did and post it?
