Southwest NOT a scored race
Just got this from RTTR:
No, the Southwest will not be a scoring race. It was not included on the published schedule when it was originally scheduled to be run last weekend, and at this point it would not be fair to add it since many people have already selected their stables.

Someone start the damn thing already so I can pad my contest resume with another easy victory.

Whenever you have a field of over 1,500 people and only have 10 races to work with - it's like "they're off, and here's the wire" A 2nd, 4th, and 54th place finish would have translated to like a 20 length victory if it was a single 30 race contest instead of 3 different ten race ones.

I see myself as someone who's best distance is 25 miles. Thus the longer and more tedious a grind the contest is .. the better for me.
With that said ... even I will be secretly rooting against myself since no money is involved. It's fun watching the cocky lose.

What kind of a mamby-pamby weenie watches Survivor and roots for Boston Rob to get voted off the island? I hope you finish second to me. Watching the cocky back it all up is electrifying. Don't ever be ashamed about being The Rock.

It's going to be an uphill climb for me as I didn't use the Fountain of Youth winner and will have to pick him up next round.
17th out of 130 isn't the worst of starts .. but I'm probably toast after one race.

I wonder why they still haven't updated this??
I think I surged into the top 5 after yesterdays results.

I'm 4th right now.
I'm the only person in the entire top 23 that didn't use Eskenderya. Had I used Eskenderya instead of Buddy's Saint I'd be way out in front .. and probably heavily favored to win the national overall.
