Think about that for a second ... in order to win the entire contest, all he needed was for an odds-on favorite to win the Wood Memorial and for him to comeback and run 3rd or better in the Kentucky Derby.

Reminds me of the kid who exploited loop holes in the Presques Island Trifecta contest and won thousands of dollars. not to mention fed 2 homeless shelters with free hot dogs for a months.. What was the kids names?
