Congratulations!
Thanks a bunch. I kind of stumbled across the finish line today. The horse I finally settled on after numerous changes of mind finished 2nd, but was only a little more than a half-length ahead of the 4th place horse. (Also, a horse I was very seriously considering in the 2nd race finished 4th.)

One person was knocked out today--the one who picked a horse in the 8th race. So that leaves 7 of us in the tiebreaker. The first tiebreaker is the highest single show payoff up until April 13. My best payoff was $3.40. (on Halfponderosa on 3/15).

If a 2nd tiebreaker is needed, it will go to the highest show payoff after 4/13. Mine would be $2.20, so I'd better collect on the first tiebreaker, or I'll come up empty-handed.

They could post the final standings anytime. I would think they'd have the process pretty well automated.

Thanks a lot for all the support, mmsc. Thank you A, br, IK, and OM, too! You made it a lot of fun.

I'll post some stats soon. Hypothetical $100 parlay and hypothetical $100 flat bets...
