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. --Dunbar

![]() 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. --Dunbar

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. ![]() --Dunbar

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. --Dunbar

Early pick for tomorrow is Royal Meridian in the 1st. A scratch in the 2nd or 7th could change things.

Whew, came in 3rd. Don't know yet if it was close. 10 of us move on--I was surprised more people didn't choose the even money fav in the 5-horse 2nd or the fav in the 5-horse 7th: 10 people selected #02 Royal Meridian in race 1 5 people selected #02 Achilles in race 7 5 people selected #04 Valkyrie Missile in race 2 3 people selected #05 Position A in race 2 2 people selected #06 Big Tsimmis in race 6 --Dunbar
