My picks are:

11- #10

and at Meadowlands:

2 - #9
4 - #8
7 - #10

Good as Gone is a scratch in race 8 Mike.

In the contest the only other scratch is #8 in the 8th, but none of us have that one so we're good. Good Luck DJ.

No on poker; I have a problem with "tells."

My first #10 ran out at Remington - two more chances.

A #10 just ran third at the Meadowlands, so I'm still alive.

2 ran third, so I'm good until the next contest day.

Super came back over $1200 for a dime, with the chalk out.

Remington is for "hatpin" players, I guess.
