Points and ROI Totals through March 25, 2017

Don Guido somehow keeps rolling along with pretty ugly win in Pts and breaks the 200 barrier to maintain his slight lead over Real Quiet who's hanging tough right behind nailing a 2nd in Pts and a tie with JolyB both maintaining their position of 2 and 3 on the leader board. Plenilune nabs the minor reward for the show spot in Pts but stands firm on the 4th rung of the ladder as Ruffian-333(What does 333 mean anyway?) rambles up to breath down Plen's neck in the 5 spot with a nice total for a win in ROI and a 3rd in Pts.

Thanks for playing and staying with the family. The Don appreciates immensely, seriously!!! Lets see what DG's all stakes card does to us???


1. 205 DonGuido (1st Pts)
2. 193 Real Quiet (2nd Pts tie)
3. 159 JolyB (2nd Pts tie)
4. 119 Plenilune (4th Pts)
5. 118 Ruffian-333 (1st ROI and 3rd Pts)
6. 97 Digger
7. 60 ryonker1
8. 41 Indian Hemp (4th ROI)
9. 35 Roamin42
10. 26 NJ Stinks

Points and ROI totals through April 15, 2017

OK, so as we get ever closer to the Derby and TC races and those sought after double points, DonGuido seems to be surprising himself with nailing points in both contests pulling a little further away from the field (with a very rare big 1st place hit this week in ROI) and JolyB jumps over Real Quiet to the 2 hole with a very tough win in Pts as RQ tallies added points of the place spot in Pts. Plenilune hangs in for the ROI #2 spot and solidifies her hold on the 4th rung of the ladder while Ruffian nabs minor honors in Pts but hangs tough in the five hole.

A couple more weeks until the big day and the start of real racing again, we hope!!! Thanks for playing and welcome ElPrado back to the family again!!!

1. 254 DonGuido (1st ROI and 3rd Pts)
2. 206 JolyB (1st Pts)
3. 203 Real Quiet (2nd Pts)
4. 140 Plenilune (2nd ROI)
5. 131 Ruffian-333 (4th Pts)
6. 121 ryonker1
7. 97 Digger
8. 46 Indian Hemp
9. 40 Roamin42 (4th Pts)
10. 27 NJ Stinks

Points and ROI Totals through Derby Day May 6, 2017

So with double points a few made some big draws to add to their points bank accounts. DonGuido seems to get up for the biggest days and nails the win in Pts padding his lead over the rest of the pack. Ruffian as the bridesmaid in the two contests makes a big deposit adding a whopping 32 points to her till and Plenilune scores 4th place points adding nicely to her total. Although the biggest haul of the day was booked by NJ Stinks with a win in ROI and a REPEAT as well for a stash of 42 points on the day while Cruzan hits pay dirt for a 3rd place in Pts.

Off to Belmont for a nice card to see how we are treated in Elmont, NY. Thanks for playing and keep those cards and letters coming!!!

1. 291 DonGuido (1st Pts)
2. 212 JolyB
3. 207 Real Quiet
4. 179 Ruffian-333 (2nd Pts and 2nd ROI)
5. 151 Plenilune (4th Pts)
6. 130 ryonker1
7. 97 Digger
8. 46 Indian Hemp
9. 40 Roamin42
10. 80 NJ Stinks (1st ROI and 20 Bonus Pts for ROI Repeat)

Points and ROI Totals through March 13, 2017

All right now DonGuido appear to be pulling all of his Irish 4 leaf clovers and continues to pickem and add to his rather large lead on the pack with a repeat win. JolyB adds well deserved points for a nice 2nd in ROi and Real Quiet does the same to his total with a super spot in pts. Ruffian gains a little ground adding to her 4th spot in the gate and Plenilune creeps right up never so close in the 5 hole. Seems like the toppers got all the "glory" at the Belmont swamp this week.

Lets hope Pimlico avoids the rain and we have a more typical race day to handicap. Thanks for playing as we are truly about half way (or more) through the handicapping year.

Maybe RQ can give us an update as to where we all stand with the more important aspect of wagering . . . ROI totals and wins, etc so far this year. It's all truly about wagering and not picken!!!

Thanks in advance RQ!!!

1. 322 DonGuido (1st Pts + 20Bonus Pts for the REPEAT)
2. 220 JolyB (2nd ROI)
3. 211 Real Quiet (4th Pts)
4. 184 Ruffian-333 (3rd ROI)
5. 170 Plenilune (2nd Pts and 1st ROI)
6. 130 ryonker1
7. 97 Digger
8. 46 Indian Hemp
9. 40 Roamin42
10. 80 NJ Stinks

11. 17 Cruzan
12. 9 ElPrado (3rd Pts)

Points and ROI Totals through June 10 (Belmont) 2017

Alrighty . . . then, not much change but many gathered some very nice points totals as DonGuido seems to be hanging on to his surmountable lead while walking on a big day clouds and Real Quiet doesn't lose any ground with quality hits for the last two contests. Same with JolyB keeping tabs on the top twosome, yet Ruffian getting pretty hot jumps over the Professor to take on the 3 hole by a smidge. Ryonker adds nicely to his totals hanging tough on the 6th rung of the ladder and Cruzan hits in big in the bank roll while adding to his late starting totals. Last but never least ElPrado kills it for wallet stock while nudging up ever closer to the cruz man.

Thanks so much for playing and now we make the slow mid-summer early fall watch and count down to BC days. Doesn't get much better than this since the 3YO's had a real split somewhat uninspiring split decision through the TC run


1. 373 DonGuido (1st Pts and 4th ROI 6/10)
2. 296 Real Quiet (4th Pts 6/3, 3rd Pts 6/10 and 4th ROI)
3. 268 Ruffian-333 (1st Pts 6/3 w/ REPEAT Bonus and 2nd ROI 6/10)4
4. 263 JolyB (1st Pts 6/3 and 3rd Pts 6/10))
5. 189 Plenilune
6. 151 ryonker1 (3rd Pts 6/3)
7. 97 Digger
8. 59 Indian Hemp
9. 42 Roamin42
10. 85 NJ Stinks

11. 37 Cruzan (2nd ROI 6/10)
12. 34 ElPrado (1st ROI 6/10)

Points and ROI Totals through July 1, 2017

Ok now, DonGuido remains rather quiet lately while JolyB nails numerous points with strong showings for the last two weeks and jumps over RQ to take on the two spot cutting well into DG's lead. Ruffian maintains her omnipresence landing some nice points for the minor rewards but the BIG move has been Plenilune recording a REPEAT in points adding a bunch of points to her vault. NJ Stinks nabs the first prize in ROI moving close to century mark in the seven hole and Cruzan helps his virtual bankroll with show points a couple of contests back.

Plenilune has the honors and will show us if she remains "spot on" for the first THREEPEAT of this year. Good luck Plen and thanks to all for playing!!!

1. 385 DonGuido (7/1 4th Pts)
2. 303 JolyB (2nd Pts & 4th ROI 6/24, 2nd Pts & 1 ROI 7/1)
3. 299 Real Quiet
4. 282 Ruffian-333 (4th Pts 6/24, 3rd Pts 7/1))
5. 242 Plenilune (1st Pts 6/24 & 2nd ROI, 1st Pts REPEAT)
6. 153 ryonker1
7. 98 NJ Stinks (1st ROI 6/24)
8. 97 Digger
9. 59 Indian Hemp
10. 48 Cruzan (3rd Pts & 3rd ROI 6/24)

42 Roamin42
37 ElPrado

Cruz the totals here are for Jul 22 not Jul 29. You and the rest will get your points added when I get to the Jul 29 update. Patience grass-hoppah, patience.
