Default DT Contest - The Finale

This is it folks, the final race of the 2007 Derby Trail Contest. As your host, it has been a pleasure - thank you for letting me run this fun and informative contest - it has truly been my honor

Just a reminder, if the horse you picked earlier in this contest win the Derby, you will get a "10 times the earlier race payoff" bonus... for example, if Tiago wins the Derby, Saucon17 will get a $944.00 bonus (10 x $94.40) and he will win this game Also, we are playing for prizes, they are:
1st Place: A Trophy AND BRAGGING RIGHTS!
2nd Place: Autographed Rodney Stuckey photo (Eastern Washington University’s star basketball player that is expected to be drafted in the 1st round of the NBA draft this year)
3rd Place: Eastern Washington Football or Basketball shirt

Finally, I also will be posting a Triple Crown contest. That one is very easy, pick the winner and a three horse exacta box for each of the three TC races... you can either post your picks here or there - I'll keep track of them where ever you post them

Good Luck everyone!

Since I have decided to go all or nothing...

My picks: Stormello alt. Street Sense

(I am going to go with my BIG booty horse!)



Carrot's Picks: Scat Daddy alt. Great Hunter


Good luck to everyone! I have to watch the race on a little bitty b&w battery operated TV as I will be at a horse show! Wish me luck that I don't come off!

Thanks for the contest DC! I had a blast and so did "CARROT".

Wow! What an amazing contest - the Derby bonus ends up making the difference - Congratulations to our winner - [color="Red"]Paisjpq!!!![/COLOR]

Second place went to Mclem10011 who move up from 13th place in to the runner up spot, he picked Street Sense in both of his races earlier this year and that paid off big!!! - excellent job!

Third place belongs to 2 Dollar Bill, he had Street Sense to win today and also called his win earlier in the year - Well done!
