Thanks, me too!


Early choice for tomorrow is Mint Humor in Race 3. (I was a big fan of Sharp Humor)

I'm going to be on the road all day and may not be able to check for scratches.

Thanks, Arletta. I actually switched my selection to Lady of Shamrock when two scratches turned the 8th into a 5-horse race, but the outcome would have been the same.

8 different horses were used by the 27 players today, and 7 of those horses finished top 3. One person got knocked out, leaving 26 players for tomorrow's card.

Just got home. I've got Starry Skies in the 7th. Going off in a few minutes. Picked it last night, liked it even more after the scratch.

I and the 10 others on Starry Skies survived. (finished 1st). 2 people got knocked out today, leaving 24.

If we could just split up the prize money, we each have over $200.

PLAYERS STILL IN: 25
PLAYERS OUT: 6546
TOTAL PLAYERS: 6571

I guess only one player was eliminated. That player picked the fav in the 11-horse 8th race. Probably looking for a big show payoff in case the tiebreaker kicks in, which is looking more and more likely.
