The only good news I've had this week: out of 2500 contestants still alive, I'm only $2 out of the top 8 (they don't list further than that, so I don't know exactly where I stand).
Hey, it's better than nothing |

Just wait and see how many start dropping, when they forget to put their bets in for the first week of weekday racing.

978th after today, but still alive! I like this contest. You have to pick your spots to go for a price. They've done a pretty good job selecting wide open races. I thought it might have been over for me on Friday as well, but More than a Feelin saved me.

I moved up to #11 overall, after a 3-3 $69 day. I think I'm starting to feel the pressure

Early nods for tomorrow
5th...Ambling Rose 4-1 Pams Girl 7-2 8th Hopes and Dreams 5-2 Regina Madre 9-2 9th Primo Nova 5-2 Rymar 8-1 May Take Rymar as my "Money" pick of the day... Usually pick the likely two winners and play one with odds... The only way to win this thing is to pull a few big money horses to boost the bankroll and use the chalk to keep you in the game...

Becareful with making picks early. There was alot of heavy rain here Sunday night and most of all day Monday. They would have been off the old turf couse for a week. The new course takes the water much better, but they might be in baby the turf course mode because of the Breeders Cup. It sucks making picks for the turf and they end up off it and you end up with the post time favorite. I expect to get knocked out, but I want it to be with horses I like.

Race 5: Sister Silver, only because of Perkins. Race 8: Hopes and Dreams, due to the red-hot Stanley Hough. Race 9: Dixie Two Thousand, due to the red-hot Scott Volk. Hopefully, one of these horses will hit the board, so I can continue the "quest". |
