If all 7 go out today, they would split the $2500 equally.

neither of those two in the 4th won.

I wondered what would happen if all 7 went out. (I never bother to read the rules unless I get close to the finish - under 200 left.) I thought technically the ones who chose in the 1st race were actually eliminated before those who had chosen in the 4th race. Glad they all share in the prize.

tomorrow is tough. I'm racking my head trying to figure out an easy race to play.

Just find a willing runner and be done with it.

I ended up going with Moonskipper in the 1st race and she finished 3rd. I just was hesitant because there was no pace in the race.

Tough one considering the entire field was only separated by a little more than a length.

Nice showing anyways.

Not really , this is when you look at the trainer/rider and not the horses racing. Porp A was the slowest horse in that race. Willing just too slow.

Huh? What are you even saying?

Look at the chart - the field was very bunched.

I didn't look at the race beforehand and wouldn't have had an opinion if I had, but how was he the slowest horse in the race?

Best fig for each horse:

Unusual Smoke: 93
Banner Lodge: 97
Cadillac: 96
Calimonco: 86
Achak: 85
"Porpoise A": 93

Beyers are so out dated.

Postion A appears to be a need the lead type and with the #2 and #4 most likely were going to be on the lead and if Postion A didn't get a clear lead he didn't have a chance being the slowest finisher on the down hill turf. That's what I saw and didn't play the race. I didn't watch it or realy look at the chart, but I will now that I gave an opinion.

Never the less your horse still was a poor pick. I guess even a ****** could see this.

Using the actual exit race as a tiebreaker would make the contest much more interesting! There would be big incentive to not pick until the later races. You'd have to balance the chance of the horse winning with the chance that others will be picking horses that run before/after you.
