Too bad those horses scratched, or I would have gone with one of the favs from the earlier races.

My chances are slim now. I should probably switch to a pic-the-longest-shot-of-the-day strategy. Other wise, I'd pretty much need to luck into a good win streak or luck into enough random place finishes to catch up there.

Race 8

#7 Home Journey

Good luck!

Sorry your show streak was ended Dunbar, but you outlasted 1700 people from day 1 who missed earlier, so that is very good. Masochistic took out quite a few entries, so you had plenty of company. We are now down to 415 players who are 5/5 on show picks. Bigrun and I are actually part of a 53-way tie for 153rd place with 3 wins, 1 second and 1 third. Only three players have managed to find 5 straight winners to start the meeting.

Ranger my rank was shown as 160 when i made my pick...good luck today, hope we make some headway..

Dunbar...last contest my streak ended after 4 and i went chasing 50-1 shots someone was leading with $137 winner and I think someone beat that...wasn't me

Wait, what?

Santa Anita is dark on Wednesdays so your streak is alive and well, unlike mine when I missed on Sunday. So no 50-1 shots for you yet, unless you think they are the horse you feel is most likely to show

Other notable players with perfect streaks include fellow DTers Arletta and jwkniska, great job and keep up the good work! Also the winner of the winter-spring contest, sgtennis, is also among the 279 final perfect streaks.

????..11p.m I tried to check results, no results!..checked entries and no racing today!!...what the heck, when i logged on earlier and thought i just missed, i must have missed the date...gotta go back in and change that 50-1 to 6/5

I thought I'd pick a few more favs to see if I could get in the running for most places or most wins, but my first pick, on Sunday, finished 3rd, which helped me in no category. So, I'm officially switching to the 50-1 shots now, too.

(took the 2nd 50-1 shot in the 4th race today.)

147 now at 9 out of 9, including bigrun, jwkniska, and sgtennis. Arletta must have skipped a day, because she is at 8 of 8.

Interestingly, one of the players with 9 of 9 show picks, roro308, had a 16-1 shot come in for a $35.60 payoff. That seems pretty weird! Maybe he/she started out going for highest win payoff, and then switched? roro308 is also in a 5-way tie for the lead in most wins, 6.
