Well, we had the exacta, Jim!

This cuts my contest ROI down to -9.5%. Woo hoo, I beat the track take.

EDIT: Ha! mis-calculated. My ROI is -17%, right on target with the track take.

Nope, you missed my (almost immediate) edit. I finished 174th! You edged me out.

Of course, we both beat you-know-who, so we get a shot at the "Finals".

You lost at the SA track take rate, and I lost at the Oaklawn track take rate!
