I prefer maiden claimers for something like this. I find that with higher class horses, who are all winners, its harder to eliminate horses. It seems like with the cheaper maidens its easy to find several that are just not even close, and others that are likely to be on the board.

Not sure that on round one it's a big deal to share picks or strategies. I'm sure if it comes down to people from DT, sharing picks won't be happening then.

Lighten up man!

Hey Einstein, if you are so worried about not helping people, why did you post your selection?

I have no other comment for you that wouldn't violate all of the conduct rules on here.

If only there were a Hawthorne Showvivor, then I'd be willing to bet money on it.

I pretty much know that people on here are too competitive (or stubborn) to use other people's contest picks.They may use the same horse,but not because somebody else used it.Why don't you put $50 up,and we will get at it.
