Final tally as I did not get a chance to 'cap today (and frankly, many of my favorite angles are no longer valid with this abbreviated late season schedule) and will be in The 'Ville for closing weekend.

All in all, an interesting experiment.

I lost $12.90 on the big (greater than $100) tickets and lost $179.70 on the small ($72 or less) tickets. So I don't think it drew any major conclusions in the bigger tickets are better in the long run argument.

It was very difficult to do this deal on line because there were many days that the ticket had to be posted early in the am (or even the day before) and could not be adjusted later for scratches or track conditions (i.e. off the turf). This has given me a greater appreciation for what Steve and Matt do, and do so well, here on a regular basis. There were many days that I went to the track and after taking in the scratches and watching a few races, my P4 ticket would bear very little resemblance to the tickets posted on Derby Trail. Because of that, my actual accounting of P4 plays is quite different than the cyber P4 plays. So, I am not sure how much we accomplished with this experiment.

I hope a few were able to benefit from our picks this year. Congrats to Rudeboyelvis on having an awesome meet. See you all next December.
