Derby Day Extras here . . . updated 4/29

[DonGuido]

As usual, I will post, as a reminder to most, the Derby Extras here.

To respond to Cal and RQ's exchange we've always included the Oaks - Derby Double as one of the four wagers. We haven't included any other races on Oaks Day. I'm a KISS advocate so lets keep it this way for this year

Derby Extras . . .

* We will have a $200 wallet for your four wagers of which one can be the Oaks-Derby Double.
* Points awarded for both contests will be doubled plus . . .
* 20 extra points for picking the Derby straight trifecta
* 15 for the straight exacta
* 10 for picking the winner
* 10 points for picking the last place horse
* 10 for the closest guess to the lengths he lost by
* 10 points for the closest guess to the official attendance

Also please share any info you may have on the race, the horses and news of the day (I need all of this I can get).

So sharpen your pencils and your horse racing minds but more than anything Enjoy the Day and Ga'luk to all!!!

Don, have you given any thought about whether to play the full 14 race card or to end our points contest after the Derby (Race 12)? It's not my call, but I would lean very heavily in favor of the latter choice.
