Keeneland?

[pmayjr]

Bellamy,
Thanks for the offer. Usually the entry fee to these contests is $100. I think for both the Keeneland and Hoosier contetsts, they're $100. You're mking mythical wagers, so the $100 goes straight to the prize pool. With my travelling expenses tacked on, I try to keep the trips around $400, but that's what I love doing, so it doesn't bother me much.

The only time any contest gets much more expensive than $100 is if it's a big-time contest for the high-rollers, or if the wagers you are using aren't mythical. My home track, Canterbury, in suburban Minneapolis, makes you use real money in a lot of their contests. So it's will be entry fee+bankroll to get in.

But yeah... I love the $$$, I love the competition involved with these, but more than anything else- I'm tryin to qualify for the big DRF contest in Vegas in January for the big big $$$. The Horse Player World Series (also held in Vegas) would be a nice thing to qualify for too. I've been agonizingly close to qualifying, but haven't quite made it. But these contests also fit my betting style. I love betting longshots, so I'm a boom or bust player. I'm either gonna win the thing or finish last lol.

hit me up at pmayjr@yahoo.com if you're ever coming through. Otherwise I'll hit you up in early December when it becomes Keeneland contest time. Lata
