I moved up a few hundred too with Hard Spun's win, but you and everyone else still kicking my boody. Should do better in the Florida Derby since I have half the field. One I am a little worried about is Notional. Don't have him. Which ones do you have for that race?

I only have Stormello. Going to have a slow weekend if he doesn't come in for me. I believe he is my only runner this coming weekend so next week I will be back in the 10,000s somewhere.

I've got Scat Daddy, Adore the Gold and Drums of Thunder on my top team and Scat Daddy, Notional and Stormello on the other one. Hopefully, someone will come in for the win (preferably Scat Daddy!) LOL

I wasn't sure. Is Chelokee running this weekend? I guess it would help if I found that out.

Nice lineups. I've just got Adore the Gold going. (I'm at 8797.)

Yes, but you are in the thick of it for the coveted DT League Cup! Good work. I'm getting killed by my 2nd trainer (Zito) and jockey (Gomez). Zero points from each.

I took a chance and left Scat Daddy out of my original picks. And I'm so frickin stubborn I didn't add him in the draft. Probably my demise.

I did too. Glad to know I am not the only one. (I even left off CQ) I went with Ravel. Going to be my demise...

Yes but I think you would have separated yourself from many others with Zito. He had some runners but they had not showed much promise. You dont get to add a trainer so if Zito's horses had improved and you had some of them you would be in the thick of the whole sheebang instead of mired behind a bunch of people that have the same thing you do but more points because of slightly diff. horses.

I thought Great Hunter's first of '07 was a nice race. He's my early pick but we'll see what happens in the Bluegrass.

That was my thinking with Zito, pgardn. You have to take some kind of longshot stand to do well in a tournament like this. With Gomez I wasn't trying to be tricky, I just figured he would be on enough of the top horses to make him a good point-earner. Wrong.

I did -- not that it mattered. Fortunately -- I had the top three activated.
