Points and ROI Totals for 2019-2020 Contest Year

Points and ROI Totals thr0ugh June 20, The Belmont, 2020


So we have double points and extras as some of cashed in big this week on both. Our Colorado Kitten consulted her crystal ball and hit the Extras big time by nailing the straight exacta, last place horse Jungle Runner and closest to the lengths back being 39 1/4, she said 33. Other Extras beneficiaries were DG, Cal and JB who called for Jungle Runner to finish last. Not as many cashed in on the extras as I thought would.

See totals and changes below. And I also added the points for 6/13 contest I overlooked. Thanks for playing and we'll see where RQ takes us next.

1. 441 Cal828 (2nd ROI and 10 Extra Pts)
2. 349 JolyB (4th ROI and 10 Extra Pts) (3rd Pts and 2nd ROI 6/13)
3. 316 DonGuido (3rd Pts and 10 Extra Pts) (4th Pts 6/13)

Cal828 continues his control of the drivers seat although JolyB keeps nipping away at the lead. Ruffian-333 nails a win in Pts and grabs the 3rd place spot from DG while Alli moves a little close to Roamin in the 7th spot.

I guess I shouldn't be helping JolyB in his quest to dethrone me as the leader, but that will likely happen anyway with his inspired play. I think there is something amiss with the last totals. Joly's totals didn't change from 6/20 to 6/27 which I think can't be right. With a 1st in ROI and a 3rd in Points wouldn't he have earned 15 or 16 points on 6/27? Apologies, if I am wrong.

Hmmmm, thanks for the note. I'll check into it and make the changes if needed. You are correct I did not include the add 14 pts, now changed. He typically ups his game this time of year but he's still got a bit of work to catch you. Thanks again Cal.

[JolyB]

Thank you Cal. That was a very sportsmanlike gesture on your part. I hope that I can reciprocate some day. I must confess that with all of the other things going on I have not paid much attention to the standings. I've been treating our weekly contests as a much needed diversion from other stuff and view this as a most enjoyable game we play among friends.

Playing 2 week catch up again, sorry. Quick notable players are JB and Cal going back and forth like high level tennis match at the top with Cal still holding a large margin at the top. Ruf and Cruz keep on making good picks and adding nicely to their totals with some great ROI plays.

Get this done on time for a change. Ruffian-333 keeps hanging tough in the top 3 with a nie win in Pts as DonGuido nabs a pocket full of points with a place spot in both contests. Real Quiet joins hands with DG for a place showing in Pts and maintains the 5th rung of the ladder and JolyB ups his total with a 3rd place finish in Pts helping to secure his place in the second hole. Plenilune does very will with her win in ROI and a4th place finish in Pts

Thanks to all for playing and we'll see where our Colorado kitten takes us next?!
