Lipwrecked82 off to an okay start with Classic Ruler!
Props to those that had Constellation and the 2-3 other horses that were tough to pull the trigger on, but paid off. First Showvivor in about 3 years for me. Went pretty deep before than BUSTO, which probably explains my absence recently. BOL fellas!

Caught link on Twitter and thought I'd try again. Been away so long I had to create new registration. Now, it is five contests.
Got one in a row covered with Sharp Azteca! Good luck to all.

Race 3
#12 Kenzou's Rhythm, $16 to show Good luck! I started a $10 show parlay Monday, even though I forgot to mention it, but is it really a redboard if you only win $6? So hence the odd bet for today. Today looks very tough and if I had a long streak going I would probably pass, but since it is only at one I will take a shot today. Out of 3,159 players who made picks on Monday, only 1,466 were successful, or less than half. But it is way too early to give up if you missed on day one, I would put the over/under on the winning show streak at 31, considering the new format of not allowing picks in short fields. I counted 60 racing days in the contest period, so there is lots of time to build a winning streak.

The top picks 2 through 5 all ran out of the money.
Luckily, the losing string of top picks started the race AFTER I chose Twirling Tiger.
