I started it yesterday, one of my friends won it last year but couldn't go. He works for the Giants and they started training camp.

Odd that their deadline is before the Triple Crown nominations are announced. Looks like several of their offerings would have to be supplemented. Not good to include those initially.

Is it hard to do? What exactly do you do in the game? I didn't see a tutorial (yet?)

You just pick some horses from the list and hope they turn out to be good enough to make it.

Im not sure if there is any great strategy to this, I put about 3 minutes into picking my team. I might use Travis website later to find out where everyone is pointing. This is my squad....
