I think I might have won a satellite at Arlington

26K was a gift that day

You won,because you had more wins? I never liked that part of the contest(most winners etc.)JUST A WAY TO GET PEOPLE TO BET WIN TYPES.We have all seen people with 10 wins in a row("leading"
the contest) pick horses that run right off the board.I have never understood why winners should be important in a contest that requires you to pick horses to show.

No, not because I had more wins, because he was out first, and I was the only one left standing.
