Well, I had a lot of fun Mira. Thanks again for the contest. Love Handles came through for me and ArlJm today. Hee Hee I will admit, I picked her on name alone since I have gotten rid of my love handles on my new diet. I thought that name was appropriate which is why she was my WP bet and not my WPS bet. Sometimes I do better by just going on funny things.

I am happy with how I did. I honestly didn't think anyone would catch DC, but CONGRATS to that dude! Awesome Tri dude!

Thanks again for all your hard work mira.

The big winner in the final week was ArlJim78 who selected the winner Love Handles for his WPS bet and was rewarded with a $24 score. Buffymommy used her usual WPS/WP strategy with her typical effectiveness and came in a close second with $21.20.
The biggest congratulations go out to 2 Dollar Bill (our winner) and DerbyCat (our runner-up). Both coupled solid weekly selections with one GIANT day to run away from the rest of us. You guys get the "big" prizes, and Arlington bragging rights until next May. Congratulations, and thanks again to everybody for playing.

I had great fun trying to find winners and value at track I don't often play. Most of my past AP success has been on its turf course.

Good luck to all and I hope this contest returns in 2008!

John G. Dooley, AP race caller, is one of best in the country. He does great job each season at Fair Grounds.
