However you did it, well played. On a side note, some of you might enjoy the Del Mar online contest. Starts tomorrow, goes through the end of the Del Mar meet. Similar to this contest in that you get a mythical $100, but only for one race chosen by the powers that be at Del Mar. It usually is a turf race and I am guessing that they will start with the Oceanside which is a one mile turf handicap with 13 starters.

Thank you for the heads up, Cal and good luck to you. I've been looking at the contest site and am a bit surprised that the race for Day 1 hasn't been posted yet. Probably be available soon.

This year's format requires that you use your full $100 bankroll for WPS only, with a 25-1 odds cap. That should reward consistent day to day handicapping rather than just wild guessing.

It's posted now and it is the Oceanside(R8). Only 2200+ playing. Piece of cake. I'll probably be ranked about 200 after the first week!!

Good luck to you also.

Thanks for the heads up cal. Hope your not bummed out by the results on the contest. The only one that was zoned in was Plenilune and she smoked all of us. Although Roamin had a very good day as well. We would be honored if you would join the group as a regular.

I'm not bummed at all. What was it they used to say on Wide World of Sports? They called it " the thrill of victory and the agony of defeat." I imagine most horseplayers have to get used to a lot of that agony stuff and little bit of the thrill, but we are a persistent lot and we fight on. I suspect that we all like the challenge. I'll probably hang with you guys a lot. I was usually playing at least one of the races you guys play anyway over on the Race of the Day thread.
