Default 3rd Annual Saratoga Meet Contest Update

Once again you will have a chance to show your handicapping skills in our meet-long contest. Last year we had 80 contestants and if you have not participated in the past, I think you will find it lots of fun and very interesting.

As before, you will be allowed 36 $20 win bets during the meet. You can make these 36 bets anytime over the meet. The person with the best ROI is the winner.

I will be changing the format somewhat in allowing each person to keep up with their own numbers. (I'll explain later).

For now, as we have done before, anyone willing to donate a prize, let me know by sending me a PM. Last year we had horse pictures, books, baseball stuff, and Steve threw in his usual nice DT swag. I will once again supply the trophy to the winner.

Good luck and enjoy your afternoon at the Spaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaah!

If it's true that ego stompin' and public humiliation build character, then I should be Mother Teresa by now. Who knows I may double the number of winners I got last year and get 2 right. Yes, I'm in. I love it "when it hurts."
