Good luck!

After yesterday's super tough day, only 112 perfect streaks remain, I'm actually listed in 18th place right now, too early to get excited but it could be interesting.

Even though the big favorite came in on Monday (thanks Moe!) the second, third, fifth and sixth most popular picks all were out of the money, so it wound up being pretty tough, and we are down to 62 perfect streaks. Today's pick is...

Race 4

#6 Sid The Squid, $21 to show

Good luck!

Good luck!

Yesterday's top pick was off the board, so that knocked the number of perfect streaks all the way down to 36, I would be surprised if more than one or two people (if that) make it through the whole meeting. Thanks for the kind words mclem.
