If you had the right structure it would be good. its takes different disciplines, handicapping, ticket structure, accounting, etc so you need people participating where they have strengths.

There would have to be some sort of agreements and write ups.

1) Starting bankroll, January 1st through December 31st, dissolved on December 31st and December 31st only
2) Only Double carryover days
3) Only California or Churchill (After Derby Day)
4) Three/Four people control the tickets, others are simply considered investors

That type of format is what I think would work,its just a matter of putting it together.Positive outlook is important in making this a goal.

I'd consider jumping in on a big ticket for the BC pick six...

I think you would want many more than 3-4 cappin, so as to increase your chances of not missing anything. For example you have like 20 people capping and send the results up to the final group which can be 3-4 people to make the final decisions and ticket structure. just an idea.

Yes Jim,not a bad idea at all.Once the plays are out,the ticket stucture is not that hard.

I would not have a problem at all sending someone like Steve or Chuck or BTW $200 to be put into an account for a large pick 6 carryover. The most difficult thing would be to agree on a ticket. I am not a good handicapper, but I would like my input to be considered. On Breeders Cup day I play the pick 6 with appr 23 other people from other states. The min investment is $200. You can put in more for more shares or put in less for less shares. The organizer sends out an email asking everyone that wants to have input into the ticket to rank the horses in each race. You get 9 pts per race. You can put all 9 on one horse or 3-3-3 etc etc. Then 6 of us get together the night before to construct the ticket. It works out pretty well. I think it would work out for this board as well.

The biggest problem would be to get everyone together to sign the IRS form. I am sure there is some way around that.

Yes,that is one way of doing it.Another way is to have 3 top cappers make up the selections and have the rest of the group vote on the selections and how the ticket will look.

You couldn't do it this way, you would have three cappers, and then everyone else is on the outside looking in.

What you could do is create a business and let it have its own Balance/income statements, taxes come from there, and then the company is dissolved every year.....

getting the business set up and the accountants would be no issue, I could get that done in about a week, I have friends that are both....

that you would trust me? although im fairly new, I think next time we have a big carryover like today that we should already have a forged plan ready in case.

I would trust my Pick 6 money with anyone here b/c I know any of us screwed any of us over you would be shunned from the entire community.

Next time I would love to put in some money getting a pick 6 ticket together.

Not every person is a good capper at every track. At Hollywood, I would want Scavs to be one of the handicappers and in KY I would want Hooves etc etc.
