I think you might be looking at the wrong post ma'am. Here is the post by
Ms. Plenilune.

Gulfstream Park R12

7 Soldado
1 Honest Mischief
11 Island Song

Scratched: 3

Tough and crazy day but DonGuido cracks the triple digits for the win. cal828 lands second. RUFFIAN-333 is a solid third. JolyB nicely rounds out the super.

1 DonGuido ABX 25 100
2 cal828 ABX 25 87
3 RUFFIAN-333 BAX 17 80
4 JolyB - DC XAX 2 64

12 cruzan200246 XBA 5 63
12 Real Quiet XAX 2 44
12 ElPrado CBX 7 42
12 Roamin42 BXX 3 36
12 Plenilune XAX 2 25

My play has been horrible enough. I'd appreciate it, if you wouldn't take away the only bright spot.

Sitting in 2nd place overall, I doubt that you will have any problem beating me, unless I come up with a better plan than I have thus far executed. May have to spread my bets out a bit. Most of the time, I have concentrated on a single race. Probably dumb to do the all or nothing thing. We will see. May not have any better results.

Hey Don. Are you missing El Prado from your list?

Cal828, don't fall for that "catnip" invitation . . . she's not only a feline's feline but a sorcerer . . . how else could she pull the ROI winners she does but rom a magic hat, a crystal ball or an 8 ball. Maybe she does get special "insights" "consuming" the Colorado "catnip" . . . not sure but be careful . . . just ask RQ.

I don't know what she does, but she surely does it well. Didn't she come within a cat's whisker of winning last week? There's probably a simple explanation for it. My theory is she's smoking too much of that "Colorado Catnip." I always heard that stuff would make you have "visions," if you over did it. She probably sees the winning horses in a vision. I guess we all better hope she doesn't combine the "catnip" with those silly mushrooms(psilocybin?). If she did, she'd probably win the NHC.

Now that's funny. Thanks for a nice chuckle before bed time.

Points and ROI Totals through Feb 9, 2019

JolyB grasps minor honors adding to his commanding lead as Real Quiet does the same hanging tough in the 4 hole. Roamin42 nabs a nice win in Pts and jumps up the ladder to challenge for the 5th rung of the ladder. DonGuido tallys a 2nd place score in Pts adding nicely to his pot in the 7 hole with the big haul of the day being Cruzan20024 capturing a dandy ROI REPEAT win and jumping over NJ at that.

Thanks for playing and we'll see how The Fairgrounds treats us.

1. 240 JolyB (3rd Pts)
2. 111 Ruffian-333
3. 86 Cal828
4. 81 Real Quiet (4th Pts)
5. 66 Plenilune
6. 65 Roamin42 (1st Pts)
7. 60 DonGuido (2nd Pts)
8. 52 Cruzan20024 (1st ROI REPEAT with 20 bonus points)
9. 10 NJ Stinks
10. 8 El Prado (My sincere apologies EP!!!)
8 Indian Hemp
