Laura,

here's your tip for tomorrow, since it's the last day. take a horse that NOBODY else in the contest would consider. You do NOT want to take one someone else may end up on. That way, you can hope theirs misses and you make it thru. Also, later in the card is better than earlier (they can get ko'd first and finish behind you).

More dumb advice.



Like the first place guy and others can't mess up their can't miss horsey.

This is the way you out fox yourself.

Let her do what she wants.




It's really amazing how all the losers all of a sudden know what to do.

John i think that is good advice, which i have just texted to Laura. She already had a choice and alternate in case, before she left town. So i will leave it up to her to make the call, i have not put in her choice as of yet, i will wait to hear from her on whether she will heed your advice. Thanks for the help strategy wise, i know she'll appreciate it very much. I will post her pick tomorrow after she makes her decision.
I am so happy for her, she's very elated to have made it to the final day!

The one and only day to take a chance like that is the last day. I've been top 10, top 25, top 50 multiple, multiple times in these.
Best thing you can hope for is for everyone to take the lowest M/L horse and have it off the board (went from 1k left to 25 left in one of these at CD when a Day horse with ML of 2/5 bounced). Ever since I saw that day, I've avoided the 'experts' best bet of the day horses at all costs.

I hope she wins it!

Well just one more..for the bettah sweatah:


Laura,

here's your tip for tomorrow, since it's the last day. take a horse that NOBODY else in the contest would consider. You do NOT want to take one someone else may end up on. That way, you can hope theirs misses and you make it thru. Also, later in the card is better than earlier (they can get ko'd first and finish behind you).




In other words----try to drop out of this thing on the very last day.


And so....

I have to ask.


























is it me?????
