Didn't realize this thread was in existence----Thought I would toss in my losing stable just for the fun of it. Good luck everyone.

That was my thinking with Zito, pgardn. You have to take some kind of longshot stand to do well in a tournament like this. With Gomez I wasn't trying to be tricky, I just figured he would be on enough of the top horses to make him a good point-earner. Wrong.

Funny how things are working out. I originally chose Sam P. because I thought he would dominate in the Illinois Derby. Now he goes to Santa Anita which is not bad because that is a Grade I. Chose Stormello thinking he would go at Santa Anita. Instead he goes to Florida. Still don't understand the logic of that. Chose Summer Doldrums thinking he would go to the Wood and now it sounds like he may go to Illinois, but I'm not unhappy with that since I doubt that he would have done well in the Wood and I had no representative in the Illinois Derby. Have no horse for Arkansas unless there is another change in plans by some trainer. Wish Pletcher had sent Any Given Saturday to Arkansas, but I don't think that is happening.

Default Road To The Roses
Hopefully I can stay in second place for the group. Finally got my first points from a jockey yesterday from Cornelio Velasquez. Dealt with the cold and rain at Sam Houston last night for the Connally Breeders Cup. I wonder how many of the betting public blew thier life savings on Silver Tree, the show prices were pretty unique with him finishing out of the money.

Well, since the WPS pools COMBINED were just $122,075, I don't think we have to worry about too many people losing their life's savings. ;>)

Those show prices weren't in major bridgejumping territory, either.

The Good News: I won our league.


Even nakatani and JV couldn't kill my stable. Next year I am going to get in for the money.

I did -- not that it mattered. Fortunately -- I had the top three activated.
