Default 2018 Saratoga Meet Contest Update!!

https://photos.google.com/photo/AF1Q...U0Af7gNPSML9bQ

Alabama is showing his stuff getting out of the gate faster than Moses could part the seas.

Needing the wire is close in third.

Two things people. You don't have to tell me your total. Did you read the rules? It's ROI that counts and everyone starts -800 (40 x $20) so you can take the time your wasting giving me a total I don't look at and use it to cap better and catch Alabama.

We have 14 people that hve caught a winner and you can start anytime suring the Spaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaa aaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaa!

New comer "bear it all", initially stuck in the gate storms out to the lead and in 13 bets and 7 winners already has a positive ROI of 0.27.

"moses" seems to have just about made it to the promise land using 34 bets to stand in second place for now. Of course we know how tht story ends so...

And have to mention Alabama Stakes in third.

Good to see Lava, Knicks, Herk, and cruz pop their cherry.

I'll update standings over the weekend, but not too late to start the contest if you're sitting on the sidelines/ Heck, you could win this thing and all the glory.

QUICK UPDATE: Moses showed once again he cannot finish the job as comes up short of the Promise Land again by being the first to shoot his wad and use all his bets. For this our award to Moses:

I'm eating a tomato sandwich or I'd include a witty commentary here.

Default Last Chance!

Last chance, last day at the Spaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaa. Looks like Bear it All wired to wire but he's not at the finish line yet!

Alabama proves once again he can walk the talk.

Eight out of 22 winners show a posiive ROI.

Good luck!

Default Final Final

Not sure what Bare It All does for a living but he crushed this contest.

Alabama made a great showing coming in second.

Not sure how winning by $91 would make his ROI that much higher than mine. I think he had 13 winners also. Congratulations to bare it all

Hey boss I know I wasn't even close to winning but I had 6 wins for a total of $890 = positive ROI.

Great job Bare It All
