Well, you never know what you're going to get in horse racing. Even making what you think are ridiculously conservative plays, lady luck is just as likely to give a person the middle finger salute as to give a reward.
I think last year toward the end of our contest I'm pretty sure I went a couple of months without a single positive score, but I guess, if I do have one of those all too rare moments of clarity and I make a big score, at least maybe I won't be too far in the hole for it to not make much of a difference.
