Default Scratch?
Maybe it was covered already ... a late scratch would just be a tough break?

Yes, unfortunately so... but remember, you won't lose $$ - this is a contest where you always even ($0) or ahead (unlike real life ). The more times you play (as long as you're a half-way decent capper), the better your chances... and sometimes, a longshot that places or shows can have a better payoff than than a chalky favorite.

Goog luck!

OK, two minutes to post for the Count Fleet Stakes at Aqueduct - no more changes to your picks.

As you can tell, I'm a little flexible on the rule of post 1 hour before...

Good luck everyone!

FYI... according to the websites at Gulfstream and Santa Anita at 8:30 am west coast time, there are no early scratches for the stakes races in our contest today.

In the future, when you make your picks for the contest early (for example, on Friday night), if you would like to make alternate picks for your choices, please feel free to do so... nothing worse than having your horse scratch the morning of the race and you not know it because you're actually doing something on the weekend other than be at your computer all day

Good luck everyone!
