Beast, Good luck to you as well. I feel like I'm playing with house money because I was pretty brutal in the original contest on 11/29/08. Not that I'm going to do any better, but these races are more to my liking.

Just playing along to see how I would have done. If any good, I might print up and send in attached to resume to DRF to become new resident 'capper. That is, if someone already hasn't nailed down the position.

Best of luck guys!!! Bring it home.

Since the NFL wildcard weekend is ready to kick off today and the College Bowl Season is coming to a closure. I'll approach the 12 races as if were a football game. I'll break it into 4 quarters and stick to my game plan throughout the 1st quarter (1st 3 races). Depending on where I stand after the 1st quarter, I'll make my adjustment accordingly. Towards the end I have 3 hail mary plays (All 20-1 ML) in hopes to get me back into contention (Contest R10 - GP R7 #9 Just Julian - 1/2 to Golden Missile has been disappointing in his career, but is capable of lighting up the tote board if he is able to duplicate his Delaware Park effort three back.) (Contest R11 - GP R8 - #13 Bullsbay - is in career top form and looks ready for a peak performance.) (Contest R12 - SA R4 - #3 Digital Magic - 1st time starter for the Southern Equine Stable by Grand Slam shows a long string of nice works.) as long as I can recover the on-side kicks. The competition will be fierce.

Good Luck to those playing.
