July15 Indiana Grand Points Picks go here . . .

[DonGuido]

Indiana Grand, where I'm quite sure we've ever visited, a very interesting choice and could be an interesting handicapping day on this nice 11 race card with 6 stakes races to boot including the Indiana Oaks and Indiana Derby.

Besides, it's the home state of my very favorite late night talk show host (next to Johnny) the incomparable and now heavily bearded David Letterman. And a place where I almost went to teach at Letterman's alma mater, Ball State University in their School of Architecture . . . some time ago, in the quaint little town of Muncie. Not sure what Letterman majored in but I'm pretty sure it was not Architecture.

Please have all picks an wagers in by 6:05PM eastern.

Ga'luk to all and thanks for playing.!!!

There are 10 Races ~ NOT 11

Be Sure U Are Looking At The Right Track Sweetie!
(Delaware Has 11)

Altho, the Irony would be if it were a different track You played
You probably would WIN the Day!

That's sometimes how life happens!

I've done it at an OTB when I gave my pix to the teller for a future
race, she gave me the ticket for the next race to run and I WON

Thanks to Plenilune for her always grand scoring

[Real Quiet]

This is what happens when you have too much time on your hands. This is the third straight year we have played Indiana Grand Racetrack. Ron won the contest last year and is seeking a repeat. Two years ago no one cashed a ticket. It must be the allure of the Indiana Derby. Here's what happens when you have way too much free time. On May 3rd, 2008 at Don's track Lone Star, Suavefancynfast took us wire to wire. Rcknhrse finished second. Who was playing in 2008? Real Quiet, Swedejxn (see that Willie? Don't quit us now), Wando, Final Turn, Joly B, Don Guido, Macksa 1, RYonker, Digger (hear that Digger?), Albright Emmylou, Little Watermelon (El Prado get him back) SkipAway, Kaz, John Servideo and QtFeather2000. Two weeks after Myrtle and Peaches were present. Plenilune played in 2008 as did Tiger Rose (still capping on two sites I play on) and Roamin. As far as I know this was just when I started keeping track of the ROI. I was a newbie to the contest then. I don't know how long before that the contest started with basically the same format but some of you were playing in it before me.

[JolyB]

RQ, no one could argue with you. Waaaaaaay too much time on your hands. Interesting stuff though. Hope our performance in the land of the Fabulous Hoosier is better now than then.

Here goes:

R1: 8-6-5-2-1
R2: 8-4-2-5-6
R3: 5-1-2-3-10
R4: 6-12-9-8-2
R5: 4-5-6-8-1
R6: 5-8-9-1-6
R7: 2-1-7-4-3
R8: 8-4-6-5-7
R9: 2-9-5-10-3
R10: 10-12-1-9-8
R11: A Guido superduperfecta

Good luck to all and thank you to Plen for scoring.

You and CT both played 5 contests in 2009. You both started on 10/10/2009. Criminal Type won it that day at Bel, Sa, Kee with a +$520. Since that day you have never missed a race!

TVG may show them after Santa Anita is through . . . maybe and then maybe on the last 2 or 3 races.

[ElPrado]

I don't hear much from Watermelon and his wife anymore. He posts on TBC occasionally. They tossed me. Why, I don't know. Ask Dusty.

I've been in north Texas, DFW area since 1985 and we only get Cable or Dish providers that offer TVG. We've been watching TVG here for a long time. What part of Texas do you live in?

You can't wager with TVG here (which is idiotic since you can spend zillions on the pipe dream of winning the Lotto mostly low income folks who can't afford to lose a dime) . . . but you can certainly watch TVG here.
