Pretty good job by DTers in Contest Week #3. The rate of loss was 11.7%, well under the track take. Our overall rate of loss is now 14.2%.

This week there were 54 cappers who posted picks, so the amount bet was $648. The winning tickets added to $572.

Here are the overall results through the first 7 races of the contest:
# of picks: 426
Amount bet: $2556
Amount won: $2192.50
% return: (2192.50-2556)/2556 = -14.2%

21 cappers are still showing an overall profit. (down from 26 last week).
