I like Belmont but that's just me?!

Final answer: We'll have our contest at Belmont Park. First post is at 1:00 PM Eastern. However, the Points contest will end after Race 10, the Jockey Club Derby Invitational Stakes. That gives us a 10 race contest card and should finish on a high note.

In the past, Real Quiet has generously offered to score any multi leg races that include the final race for ROI Contest purposes. I'm hoping that he will be willing to do so this week as well in case anyone wants to play a Pick 6, Pick 5 or late pick 4, all of which end with race 11.

I have no objections to scoring the full card at Belmont for those who want to play the last race either straight or in exotics.

Thank you very much RQ. That means Ruffian can find one of her long shot specials in the final race as well. As for anyone playing the pick 5 or 6, you never know . . . . . . .

One reason I don't mind playing the 11th in the ROI is that it looks a whole lot better than race 1. I'll probably use it.
