I totally agree, the problem is finding the winner. I liked Officer Rocket and Forty Grams as stated in another post. But they did not win. Spun would have taken even more money if he had a better post also. I never thought Teufelsberger (yes I play games withnames) would do it. Just did not see that coming.

Yeah, I lost some money, boxed the two you mentioned along with the 7 and 9 I think.

Still happy for the opportunity. The betting in that race was sheer lunacy.
